This edit modernizes the film with a new score and color grading. Downplays the preachy tone and reduce the characters over-verbalizing thoughts, fears and motivations, as if this were a stage play. Finally, it tighten ups action sequences and reduces dated VFX.

5. Expanded the introduction with an establishing shot of the rural residence on the lake.

17. Removed the fade to black as David holds his hysterical son. Inserted a new shot of the mist consuming a rural road.

These scenes scored with the song, Le Commencement, by Colin Stetson.
18. In the generator room, David hits his head but then does not trip and fall.
19. Removed Jim the redneck going into detail about what David does for a living and saying he’s sick to death of his bullshit.

58. Heavily trimmed David’s unconvincing anguished screams at the end.
59. Added new music to the end of the credits.

Well that was great (and very upsetting haha)
You did a fantastic job tightening up the story and removing some outdated special effects. Until I looked at your thread I would never have remembered the original color balance, which really made me appreciate the effort you put in to fix it.
I liked that you minimized the creatures as much as possible until shit really hit the fan. It really kept the tension at full strength.
There were some very minimal moments where in the service of those changes a scene ended slightly abruptly but I'm fairly sure it was for the best in the long run.
I think if I ever do watch this movie again it will be your edit rather than the original. Excellent work!
