![]() ![]() I felt the ending to be rather cliched though rather sad and would have been happy with a different ending. ![]() The special effects were well done, though we don't see a huge amount, most of it is left to our imagination which adds to the spooky vibe of it. I found this movie interesting and well done by how it dealt with the dynamics in the group of survivors and how things shift and change, the clashing personalities and trying to work out who should be in charge. Stuck in the grocery store with a few locals, including one very god fearing woman, we see the dynamics shift and change as people try to stay alive. Slowly a fog rolls in and soon they discover that there is something, quite a few somethings, and these somethings are picking off the inhabitants one by one. The Mist takes place in a nice little town, we see a man on his way into town with his son, everyday life in this town and a little curiosity as the local soldiers start to act a bit funny. The Mist currently has a 72 Rotten Tomatoes score and stands at 7.1/10 on IMDb, so its still a highly rated film and the critics consensus says: 'Frank Darabonts impressive camerawork and politically incisive script make The Mist a truly frightening experience.'. I didn't really used be a horror movie person, and whilst I am fine with them now, this wasn't top of my list a few years ago, but due to my husband we gave it a watch. This Review: 7.8/10 Pay to see it again: Attention Span: Believeability: Fright Factor: ![]()

There is an overarching narrative at play, but each story stands alone while being wholly entertaining, quite frightening, and extremely poignant. Reading Lovecraft Country is like watching a season of a great show contains elements of serialized and episodic storytelling. ![]() In light of the imminent premiere of HBO’s adaptation of the book, it seemed exactly the right time to finally read it. But I just never got around to reading the book. In Lovecraft Country’s case, that was prioritizing the stories of Black Americans by placing Black characters as the leads in various genres that have often underserved them. I love revisionist takes on old genres, especially ones that bring something new to the table. Lovecraft Country was one of those books I always meant to read but never got around to doing so. ![]() ![]() The second book in the series, titled The Shadow of Kyoshi, was released on July 21, 2020. ![]() Set in the world of the animated television series Avatar: The Last Airbender, it takes place 400 years prior to the series and follows the life of Kyoshi, an Avatar born in the Earth Kingdom, two generations before Avatar Aang, and three before Avatar Korra.
