If you want a good zombie rampaged mixed with some Cold War paranoia and consumerism, I'd recommend the movie Fido. It also has your daily recommended dose of Billy Connolly
Given how badly Darabont fucked up the ending of The Mist, let's hope he doesn't randomly decide to throw in some extra depressing shit just for the hell of it. The series is great, but it's quite grim enough as it is.
Yeah. The Mist wasn't great, but it was good. Including the ending. What did you want to happen? Have Tom Jane fly to the mothership and kill it with a virus from his laptop?
Or they could do all three in a mega-mash-up.
