One of the best horrors of the decade is coming to TV and it looks eerily great

Forget It, Stephen King's The Mist is here.

Film fans will know that Frank Darabont's adaptation of The Mist, based on the 1980 novella of the same name by Stephen King, was one of the finest horror films of the last decade. Aside from a superb cast featuring Thomas Jane, Toby Jones and a superb performance by Marcia Gay Harden as the religious nut Mrs. Carmody, the film manages to combine scares with a very believable story about how the relationships between people would change as the end of the world approaches. If you saw the film then you'll know that the true evil in the film was what occurred inside the supermarket, but Darabont's film also managed to deliver some of the best deaths, gore and set-pieces in recent horror history. Acid-spitting spiders, tentacles with razor-sharp teeth and monsters that were capable of beating the crap out of King Kong were all on offer. As for the ending, well, that was one of the best mind-f**ks in recent memory. Much like the film adaptation, the new TV version of The Mist centers around a small town family that is torn apart by a brutal crime. As they deal with the fallout an eerie mist rolls in, suddenly cutting them off from the rest of the world and, in some cases, each other. Family, friends and adversaries become strange bedfellows, battling the mysterious mist and its threats, fighting to maintain morality and sanity as the rules of society break down. The show premieres on Thursday, June 22nd and before you ask, the answer is yes. That was The Wire's Clay Davis. Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kya_uqiSQOY Clip via - SPIKE
