The Mist (2007)

The 2007 Frank Darabont film “The Mist,” based on the 1980 novella by Stephen King, was filmed around Shreveport, Louisiana. The home of David Drayton, played by Thomas Jane, can be found at Cross Lake in Shreveport. The home sits a bit far back from the main road, with a gate out front. However, you can in fact see the home from the street, but your view might be a bit obscured by trees.

LOCATION: 3500 Rue De Lac St, Shreveport, LA 71107

After a storm hits at the beginning of the film, David and his family survey the damage in the back yard.

The supermarket where much of the film takes place can be found about 30 minutes north of Shreveport in the town of Vivian. Only the exteriors were filmed here, the interiors were a set, built at StageWorks of Louisiana (400 Clyde Fant Pkwy, Shreveport, LA 71101).
