    The Fog is a true John Carpenter scary flick that deserves more attention. Seeing The Fog(1980) makes me respect more of John Carpenter where today's horror movies are lame with lazy jump scares, uninteresting characters and plot lines that don't make sense.
    I wish we have more horror flicks like from the 80s.

It was pretty impressive, even with all those things competing against it, especially the midnight montage and the trawler crew's encounter with the Elizabeth Dane. Obviously, this is a great video, Matt Draper.

    The influence on Carpenter people seem to miss is Val Lewton. Unlike his action films, Carpenter’s horror films are about manipulating audience expectations than material scares, which are sprinkled sparingly in his movies but always managed to stick with us long after the credits roll.

    You could talk about how:
    it's a modern take on westerns,
    on how it also has parallels to the Walking Dead,
    on how it is the first time John Carpenter got to Direct, Write, Produce, and do the Soundtrack for the same movie,
    and my favorite point, how he got *that* Ice Cream Truck Scene by the rating committee to only rate the movie R and not X-Rated.

    The Trollenberg Terror is one of those paradoxical films that is both laughable and influential. It's worth a watch, even if it is nothing more than a minor amusement of an antique time period. Dean Cundey would work with Carpenter again in The Thing. I think perhaps The Fog owes a debt to Sheridan Le Fanu and to William Hope Hodgson, particularly perhaps Hodgson's The Ghost Pirates. I love the Cinematography and the wide angle shots of this movie. Informative review!

    This movie and Prophecy (the eco-horror about Katahdin and mercury poisoning) were my VERY favorite 80s horror movies.

    This reminded me of an old story that was printed in Weird Tales called the Night-Wire. In it two radio transcribers who are listening to a report of an all consuming fog from a graveyard that is taking over a town the narrator can't find on any map anywhere. I wondered if either Carpenter or Hill ever came across this story as an inspiration. I saw the remake and it wasn't anywhere near as good as the original.

    I always thought this movie was underrated. A great movie to watch on a cold October night.

    I loved The Fog. It's STILL one of my favorite J.C. movies.

    Matt, I gotta thank you for introducing me to this movie, It's so uniqe from any other scary movie and has such a interesting premise and I never would have discovered it wihtout watching this video. I actually got it on the 21st of april this year and rewatched it for Halloween.

    I've always wondered if Stevie Wayne was inspired by the famous radio interviewer/personality Alison Steele, The Nightbird of WNEW-FM in NYC.

    In its eventual form - it is a beautiful piece of work - hugely atmospheric, frightening, and tense. Those things are not under debate. Anything else is down to personal taste.

    The Fog a minor Carpenter? Since when? All the people I know who love Carpenter, love the Fog with a passion, and so do I.

    I hate slasher movies and I don't like torture films but I do love scary movies revolving around ghosts. My favorite horror movie is the original Poltergeist but my second-favorite is definitely the fog. I think it definitely holds up even today. There's nothing creepier than kicking back on a chilly night with the lights turned out while watching this. It's the things that you don't notice that are the most unsettling. If you have a good surround sound system setup you can hear when the fog horns in the distance start blowing even though there is a scene with dialogue going on in front of you it's the total creepiness of the horns that almost subliminally put you on alert.

    Absolutely the best movie of that time!! My partner at the time sold the big dishs and we got all the movies so we got this as soon as it came out. The new one doesn't compare.

    Is there anywhere to see what the filmed looked like befits the reshoots??? One of my favourite films. A very cosy atmosphere.
