The Fog (1980)

2024-10-08

Every weekday during HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST represents a different horror them and we’re happy to kick off the first of four JOHN CARPENTUESDAY selections. Every Tuesday we discuss a John Carpenter film that we’ve been long overdue to watch and today is his follow up to his and Debra Hill’s smash hit “Halloween” that sees the return of Jamie Lee Curtis and Nancy Loomis. We’re discussing the salty 1980 horror “THE FOG” also starring Adrienne Barbeau, Tom Atkins, Janet Leigh & Hal Holbrook. A legacy of horror envelopes the town of Antonio Bay as strange things begin to happen on its 100th anniversary. A lot going on but Carpenter manages to execute this eerily serene horror in interesting ways. Seriously, we about fell asleep looking at these coastal landscapes and guilty whisperings of the village priest. Not a complaint. Why is this era of Carpenter so soothing?
