Darabont felt the novella's ending (the survivors drive off into the mist hoping to reach safety) was too open-ended for a film, but contrary to the belief that he simply created this new one himself, the inspiration is right there in King's tale. David in the story thinks to himself that if worse comes to worst, they have three bullets in the gun and four people in the truck. King never has them act on it, but Darabont does. "If we're gonna make a horror movie based on a Stephen King story, let's take Steve's most horrible, dour, and darkest thought and follow it out to its logical conclusion."
