Definitely worth a watch! I had not read the book before watching it, which I think was good going into it.
I enjoyed it as a movie outright, but it wasn’t until I did a report on it for a class that I learned to appreciate a lot of the undertones and imagery that I didn’t catch on the first pass. If you come back after you watch it I’ll tell you my favorite subtle thing I missed the first time (which I’m sure is more obvious in the book)!
I actually don’t think I’ve seen The Mist, but now I think I’m going to give it a watch based on your recommendation.

Also the movie ending is so much better. Iirc Steven king even said he preferred it to what he wrote.
