The Mist

I'm going this weekend to see this flick. I haven't read the short story, though now I am awfully compelled to.

I am a big fan of The Dark Tower series... I wonder if there are any bridges in The Mist that cross over with the katet in TDT series? I'm always curious since a LOT (but not all) of King's works do some kind of crossover.

As far as the short-story-to-film, I won't judge until I see it. If it wasn't for the alteration of the ending of the film, is it worth seeing if you haven't read the short story?

I am terrified of books-to-movies these days. I keep wanting to see The Golden Compass this season, but I keep hearing it has been completely ruined. This is disheartening. So many childhood favorites destroyed by the industry.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
