书籍介绍

Sound so visual you're literally engulfed by its bonechilling terror! Stephen King's sinister imagination and the miracle of 3-D sound transport you to a sleepy all-American town. It's a hot, lazy day, perfect for a cookout, until you see those strange dark clouds. Suddenly a violent storm sweeps across the lake and ends as abruptly and unexpectedly as it had begun. Then comes the mist...creeping slowly, inexorably into town, where it settles and waits, trapping you in the supermarket with dozens of others, cut off from your families and the world. The mist is alive, seething with unearthly sounds and movements. What unleashed this terror? Was it the Arrowhead Project---the top secret government operation that everyone has noticed but no one quite understands? And what happens when the provisions have run out and you're forced to make your escape, edging blindly through the dim light? The Mist has you in it grip, and this masterpiece of 3-D sound engineering surrounds you with horror so real that you'll be grabbing your own arm for reassurance. To one side---and whipping around your chair, a slither of tentacles. Swooping down upon you, a rush grotesque, prehistoric wings. In the impenetrable mist, hearing is seeing---and believing. And what you're about to hear, you'll never forget.

用户评论
电影剧本几乎是小说的二次创作,在面对未知自然恐惧前,加上许多人类的反应内容,那个不能吞枪自尽的结局,简直太狠。
前面都很精彩,结局有点不知道说啥好,据说电影结局更有趣一些
第一次读StephenKing 薄薄一本基本不算horror顶多是惊悚 末日灾难前奏 这种时候被困在supermarket简直是最幸运的事了……
Mark一些意象。商场,大停电,浓雾,美国国旗,越野车,小儿子(比利小子)绿眼睛的情人,不知死活的原配,公路,克苏鲁,冷静和运气爆棚的主角,湖水,暴雨,异常天象
Not my favourite Stephen King. Been wondering how he would end the story, well, he didn't. Oops, spoiler. Finished on 05/07/2015
高中时候看了这个的电影版,然后读完原著才知道其实这书是开放结局,电影导演自己给加了个悲剧结局,当年那个悲剧结局几乎都给人留下心理阴影了。
密闭的空间感营造的不错,除此之外就有些潦草了,巫婆的存在理当合情合理却又觉得太顺理成章,少了许多笔墨。就像那一夜情,我裤子都脱了,连一点描写都没有。
电影的改编很成功,结局比原著还要更震撼也更绝望一些。 The part of their affair is unnecessary though…
找不到我读的中文的版本,可能是某热心网友翻译的。这不是一个惊悚故事,这是一个政治故事啊。在有外界威胁的封闭空间里,不同的人结成不同的团体,做出不同的选择,团体之间也有合作或者矛盾。结局并不重要,因为人类的历史还在进行中。
