Alur Cerita

In the sleepy town of Bridgton, Maine, a sense of unease settles over its residents as a mysterious mist descends, shrouding everything in a thick, impenetrable fog. For David Drayton, a struggling artist and single father to his five-year-old son, Billy, the storm brings more than just inclement weather. As they seek refuge in their local grocery store, they find themselves trapped alongside other panicked townsfolk, including eccentric store owner Ollie and desperate housewife Mrs. Carmody. As the mist continues to swirl and writhe like a living entity, the group begins to realize that something is horribly amiss. The once-quaint town has become a hotbed of terror, as unseen terrors lurk just beyond the edge of visibility. A series of gruesome discoveries and unexplained events soon convinces David and his fellow survivors that they are not alone in the mist. As the group's desperation grows, so too do the tensions between them. Mr. Dutton, a gruff but well-meaning store manager, struggles to maintain order; Ollie's eccentricities give way to paranoia; and Mrs. Carmody's faith is tested by the horrors they encounter. Meanwhile, David finds himself torn between his maternal instincts as he tries to protect Billy from the dangers that lurk in every corner of their confinement. As the mist shows no signs of lifting, the group faces an existential crisis: will they survive long enough to uncover the truth behind this supernatural phenomenon, or will they succumb to the terrors that lurk within? In this gripping and unsettling horror thriller, John Carpenter weaves a tale of human resilience, primal fear, and the unbreakable bond between parent and child. The Mist is a chilling exploration of what happens when the world around us turns dark and foreboding, leaving us to face the ultimate question: can we truly survive in a world that seems determined to consume us?
