The Mist Music Video (Danse Macabre) BLACK & WHITE

This is the black and white version of the music video for the 2007 horror film 'The Mist'. It was based on a short story by Stephen King from 1980. Director Frank Darabont was the man who previously made King's works 'The Shawshank Redemption' and 'The Green Mile' into classic films.

The story is set in Maine where a heavy thunderstorm has done damage to many homes. Among those homes is David Drayton's (Thomas Jane). When he takes his boy (Nathan Gamble) to the local supermarket the town becomes enveloped in a thick mist. A few people venture into it only to be attacked by something horrifying. Now the people in the supermarket will have to fight to survive. And David will have to ward off, not only the creatures in the mist, but also his fellow man.

The music I used for this music video is 'Danse Macabre' composed by Saint-Saëns in 1874. Based on a French poem about death.

This music video has been done in two version. The first one was the colour version and this black and white version. Darabont originally intended the film to be in black and white. You can see him discussing this point here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-64pR2ARecY

'The Mist' belongs to Dimension Films and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

i think that this was better than yours in color. this kinda reminds me of how Hitchcock made Physco in black and white, even though he could've used color. i think they should've made this into black and white, although that might've resulted in a slight loss in viewers. but still. even better :D

Thanks, I'm glad you liked the B&W version so much. I must admit that I didn't expect that the music would work so well as it did.

Lol!! The music... it being in black and white and everything... just made this video hilarious... nice work! Like a corny 1950's monster flick.

I entered the disc with the B&W version into my Netflix queue. I'm checking it out. Thanks.

What is this irrational dislike for any B&W movie that's not Clerks?

[handmedownheart]

pretty cool video.. well done! really got to watch the b&w version.. color version was pretty amazing but from all I've heard it's even better in b&w (..and your music video clearly underlines that argument).
