Frank Darabont's earliest work in Hollywood included screenplays for horror flicks like "A Nightmare on Elm Street III" and a remake of "The Blob." But he's best known for "The Shawshank Redemption," an uplifting adaptation of a Stephen King novella. Darabont joins Kojo to discuss storytelling across genres, and his latest horror movie "The Mist."
