Frank Darabont’s ‘The Mist’ at 15 and Checking In with Thomas Jane [The Losers’ Club Podcast]
“As a species we’re fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and startdreaming up reasons to kill one another. Why do you think we invented politics and religion?”
It appears we may have a problem of some magnitude, and The Losers’ Club are attempting to fight it as they revisit Frank Darabont‘s The Mist. Starring Thomas Jane, Marcia Gay Harden, Andre Braugher, Toby Jones, Jeffrey DeMunn, and Laurie Holden, this chilling 2007 Stephen King adaptation celebrates its 15th anniversary this month.
Join Losers Michael Roffman, Rachel Reeves, Ashley Casseday, and Justin Gerber at the Food House in Bridgton, Maine as they hey take inventory of the film’s inspired ensemble cast, debate the themes within, marvel at Darabont’s handiwork, and sort through all the macabre monsters that still terrify us all these years later.
Then, stay tuned as star Thomas Jane returns to the show to not only revisit The Mist, but discuss his latest film Slayers. He also weighs in on how we’ve totally fucked up the Internet, his favorite Hollywood leading men over the years, why he gravitates toward King’s work, his favorite roles in King’s Dominion, and so much more.
