The Mist/Awesome

• Irene, when she chucks a tinned can of peas of Mrs Carmody's face;

Irene: Shut up, you miserable buzzard! Stoning people who piss you off is perfectly okay? They do it in the Bible, don't they? And I got lots of peas!

• • And then Ollie goes and tops everything by finally shooting Carmody as she was about to have David's son sacrificed.

Ollie: I killed her.
David: Thank you Ollie.
Ollie: I killed her. I wouldn't have done it if there had been any other way.
David: That's why I said thank you.

• The scene with the roaming behemoth near the end is eerily beautiful and genuinely terrifying in a strangely subtle way. Quite a bit of people consider it the best scene on the whole movie.
• A meta-example. According to IMDb's trivia:

"Stephen King says that he was genuinely frightened by this adaption of his novel; Frank Darabont described that as the happiest moment of his career."
