"Shawshank Redemption" is one of my all time favorite movies. And I remember the stories from "Skeleton Crew" as being some of my favorite King writings.
Sounds like we've got your first Horrorthon movie ready to go!

[Image]From worstpreviews, USA Today published an article about how Stephen King's work is being adapted by Hollywood. In it, we get our first picture from the upcoming film "The Mist," which stars Thomas Jane (The Punisher).The story is about residents of a small town who take shelter in a grocery store during a storm and begin to turn on one another when creatures that may be harbingers of the apocalypse arrive in the clouds.
Frank Darabont, the writer/director of King movies "The Shawshank Redemption" and "The Green Mile" is making "The Mist," from King's 1985 collection Skeleton Crew. Having been close to the project, King praises a new ending Darabont crafted, saying it is so unsettling that for many years no studio would touch it.
At this point, "The Mist" is scheduled to hit theaters on November 21st.

A new, unsettling ending? I seem to recall the original ending was pretty grim-as-could-be.
This could be good.
