The dad takes out the gun seeming like he's going to defend everyone, but steadily, quietly they all look at the gun then at each other, they nod in silent agreement. the dad checks the chamber and notes there are only four bullets. The pretty blonde notes there are five of them. The dad looks at his sleeping son and says "I'll figure something out"
--The camera pans back out of the car and four shots ring out, muzzle flashes seen through the windows. The dad stumbles out of the car devistated and streaked with blood spatter, half screaming half weaping. Having just killed his son and his wife dead he peers teary eyed into the mist. He hears roaring and screeching getting closer and starts to yell "Come on!" "Come get me!"over and over again as the sounds get louder, slowly it gets closer but nothings visible(really tense moment.)
--Slowly a tank creeps out of the mist with soldiers in gas masks on either flank, followed by a convoy of more tanks and soldiers with flame throwers. In their wake the mist is thinning and soliders are burning one monster after another while trucks pass by carrying survivors.
--The young mother with short hair who pleaded for someone to help her get home to her kids in the beginning of the movie rolls by on one of the truck with her kids, she stares at him blankly as they roll by. The dad takes all this in and loses it, he falls to his knees and screams his head off as two soldiers stand over him silently taking in what he had done.
--If he'd waited just a few moments longer they all would have made it. FADE OUT

^ Scientists were doing an experiment up in the mountains and they found a portal to another dimension. They could not lose it and the monsters came through.

The ending was terrible! There was no reason for the dad to kill everyone. They were not in danger or anything. They just ran out of gas! Do not watch this movie!!!

i thought this was a very badly made film. There was not enough plot development. I had no reason to feel bad when people were killed. Like the girl who got stung by the insect, or the soldier that got killed by the big spider. They also never brought up the relationship with his wife, that was at home. He didnt seem to want to even go back to save her, it was haphasardly thrown in the end when she was found in the cacoon. There were so many little glitches and the acting was sub-par. The lead actor needs to stay in movies like 'the punisher' where the only emotion is a blank stare and an occasion laugh. The only part that i really liked was when the crazy religous lady got shot! My friends and I jumped up and down, other than that, the place I would recommend watching it would be on MST3K!
