Fog

Pros: A classic, old style ghost story.

Pros: great direction and cinematography, cool story and score, and a good performance from an ensemble cast
Cons: story has a few plot holes, watching it in pan and scan ruins the majesty of Carpenter and Cundey's visuals

Following up the phenomenal (and completely unexpected) success of Halloween wasn’t going to be an easy feat for filmmaker John Carpenter...

Pros: Nice, tight old style ghost story.
Cons: The plot kind of just happens.

Pros: Creepy and scary because of craft, not gimmick.
Cons: Somewhat simplistic. No hot hero.

The Fog (1980) Directed by John Carpenter. 11:55, almost midnight. Enough time for one more story. One more story before 12:00, just to keep us warm. In five minutes, it will be the 21st of April. One hundred years ago on the 21st of April, ...

Pros: JAMIE LEE CURTIS, ADRIENNE BARBEAU & JOHN CARPENTER'S MUSIC
Cons: NONE

INTRO:

This Movie was Written by, Directed by and has Music by “JOHN CARPENTER”. This is a follow up to his big hit horror film “HALLOWEEN”. He also has a Cameo as a Church Assistant named Bennett at the very beginning of the Movie....

Pros: Jolts, jumps and creeps.
Cons: If you like ghost stories, none.

Yeah, I'm a big sucker for John Carpenter. I love almost all of his movies. This is yet another in the 'I fell in love with this movie as a kid and I still do today' series I have. It's a simple and quite effective little horror movie that still stands...

Pros: Game performances, eerie atmosphere, Carpenter's artistic touch, special DVD edition.
Cons: Usual small town under siege, some unnecessary elements.

THE FOG is an Avco Embassy Pictures presentation and is rated R for horror, violence and language. The running time is 90 minutes, and it premiered theatrically October 8, 1980.

INTRODUCTION
Some were disappointed...

Pros: Suspense, characters and the setting
Cons: None

The Fog
Starring:Tom Atkins,Adrienne Barbeau,
Jamie lee Curtis, Hal Holbrook,and Janet Leigh

There are few horror movies that make me grit my teeth anymore, but The Fog did just that. The whole concept that there is...

Pros: Excellent DVD treatment of an above average John Carpenter film - efficient, atmospheric, and stylish.
Cons: Too many characters in the story, and not enough time to fully develop them.

The Fog
1979, directed by John Carpenter, released by MGM

Movie
This is John Carpenter's follow-up to the monstrously successful Halloween. With The Fog, Carpenter and Debra Hill have crafted a good...

Pros: Carpenter's score; fairly good pacing; spooky fog effects
Cons: Minor plot holes, but far fewer than in most horror films from 1980 onward

After the smash success of his 1978 horror/suspense classic HALLOWEEN, director John Carpenter, along with his producer Debra Hill, instead of exploiting that film's success with a sequel (for the time being, anyway), decided to make a ghost story. The re ...

Pros: The fog, the female DJ, the lighthouse, Antonio Bay
Cons: Hard to follow

I just loved that DJ's voice. Oh she just sent me over the edge. Sexy as all get out!

This movie is one that I like to watch on long winter nights, snuggled up with hot chocolate. It sounds like I think the movie is no big deal but I do think...

Pros: Jamie Lee Curtis, Janet Leigh, Adrienne Barbeau; Will give you the creeps.
Cons: Some giant loopholes; unavailable on DVD; I can't say I'm Tom Atkins' biggest fan.

Tired of watching the same old horror flicks of today? I agree. Most of the major releases are some of the most putrid ways of wasting your time blankly starring straight ahead. Granted, there are some brilliant horror movies released over the past...

Pros: Good Stuff!
Cons: Might not be gory enough for some

Adrienne Barbeau, stars, as the velvet voice of Antonio Bay's radio station. As Antonio Bay is reaching it's 100 celebration, strange things begin to happen.

This horror tale is about treachery, as a horde of pirates have been betrayed by...

Pros: scary, ghost pirates!, well-made
Cons: 80's clothes, hairstyles, sunglasses, ew...

You have to give credit where credit is due: John Carpenter and Deborah Hill make a perfect couple when it comes to writing, directing and producing an outstanding horror flick. Their original "Stab" began with Halloween, and pretty much ended...
