0:00.0	Hey everybody welcome at Cole case
0:09.0	from remember mysteries. I'm your host Ryan Kraus returning to delve into the madness of Frank Darabant's 2007 horror film The Mist, which is based upon Stephen King's novella of the same name.
0:21.0	On the surface, this story is about a man who takes his son to the grocery store in the aftermath of a storm, and subsequently, during their visit, all the patrons inside become trapped by a mysterious rolling fog called the mist that ultimately
