Reveal the ending of 'The Mist?' That's crazy talk.

Yesterday at a press conference in New York, Stephen King gave his take on "The Mist." The new horror flick, directed and adapted for the screen by Frank Darabont, is based on King's 27-year-old novella.

"The Mist" gets released Nov. 21, and it was of course shot in Shreveport and northwest Louisiana.

You have to appreciate King's directness: "Frank wrote a new ending that I loved. It is the most shocking ending ever and there should be a law passed stating that anybody who reveals the last 5 minutes of this film should be hung from their neck until dead."

I take it he's not a fan of spoilers.
