Best Scene Satisfaction

You know... there has never been one movie scene that is more satisfying for me... than the scene where Mrs. Carmody gets shot in The Mist. Alright, most of you, must be going, "WTF is this yellow boy talking about?"

Alright, rewind. The Mist, is a 2007 movie adaptation of one of Stephen King's famous works. It talks about how a military project goes wrong (not revealed until 3/4 of the movie) and releases another world into ours. It releases badass creatures that aren't too shy of ripping apart humans for breakfast and also a thick mist.

I love the idea of the movie. It's been used before. Maybe more so than I feel. But seriously, the way fear drives people, it's amazing the way they took it with this movie. Drives them into a corner and see how they react. Fucking amazing.

So yeah, that's the lowdown of the movie. Lemme explain how the scene builds up to become one of the best scenes in my book. So... disaster's happening. People are dying gruesomely, blood's all over the place and one lady, from the beginning has been preaching about the End of Days as written in the Good Book. With each passing gruesome incident, she spouts more and more regarding God's wrath on mankind for their sins and His demands for blood.

Nice lady.

I really can't stand overzealous religious fanatics. Just wanna ram 'em into a lamp post. Kinda like how Vin Diesel pulled off that shit in Fast and Furious. So anyways, the religious cult she's amassed has hit a fever pitch and things look fucking grim when the cult sacrifices a young solider's life when he said that he was stationed at the facility that opened the portal to another dimension that allowed the creatures in.

The butcher guts the lad and the crowd tosses him out into the mist and a mantis-like creature grabs him away and everyone just stands there looking.

Eventually the main character and the other relatively sane people decide that it's high time to ditch this joint before the religious nut decides to sacrifice them to the beasts. Unfortunately, the religious nut's one step ahead and has put herself between them and freedom. She starts ranting off again on God, his wrath and his demand for sacrifice.

Things turn nasty as she turns her cult on the main guy's crew and demands a blood sacrifice in the form of the main guy's kid and the lady holding her. The crew attempts to fight them off and is about to get their asses handed to them when the one of the crew wheels around, shoots the religious bitch in the gut, and then once more to finish the job. Booya!

Best fucking scene ever!

Just downloaded the movie again just to relive that satisfaction, and damn, it was good.

Peace out y'all!
