Spoilers Ahead

The Mist started out like a great sci-fi film, but after the religious nut devolved and convinced a majority that this was a wrath of God and "sacrificed" the soldier things got dark for me. However, the worst was the ending where everyone kills themselves and the dad kills his son just seconds before the army arrives to save them is just too much for me. That movie fucked me up for a while.

Yeah, that movie is fucked up alright, and the story it's based on is nothing better. It suggests no shooting ever happened, and they are still traveliing - but at the other hand no help from the army came there too. Talk about choosing the better ending.
