Synopsis:
The FOG brings with it the souls of the dammed. Fog is nothing new to the quaint seaside village of Antonio Bay. But on the night of its 100th anniversary, a fogbank rolls in unlike any other. Eerielights, dark figures, and the masts of an ancient schooner appear in the swirling mists, and soon the specters of long-murdered sailors descend upon the town. Using knife, hook and sword, they exact revenge for sins committed by the town's founding fathers, leaving horrified survivors struggling tosolve a hundred-year crime. And they must solve it - or die. Starring ADRIENNE BARBEAU, JAMIE LEE CURTIS, JOHN HOUSEMAN, JANET LEIGH and HAL HOLBROOK. John Carpenter's THE FOG is classic horror at its terrifying best.

CRITIC REVIEWS
Lew Irwin
The Fog was not screened for critics, and few reviewers bothered to stand in line over the weekend to see it in theaters. Several newspapers simply printed the wire-service review by Christy Lemire of the Associated Press, which began: Some movies are so atrocious that the studios keep critics from seeing them before opening day, hoping and praying for one decent weekend at the box office before being done in by word of mouth. And while The Fog looks pretty cheesy, Lemire wrote, it manages to create some genuine intensity and suspense. Ty Burr in the Boston Globe compared the movie to the 1981 original, and wrote: This Fog lacks the one thing the original had -- originality -- but it qualifies as more than a mist opportunity. But Jami Bernard in the New York Daily News found little to like about the film, saying that the only eerie thing the movie does is to cause everyone in the cast to deliver dreadful performances and display inappropriate reactions when their friends are drowned, burned, stabbed or thrown into glass display cases. And Anita Gates in the New York Times dismissed it as mildly scary here and there. It does not play by all the horror movie rules ... and the cast is good-looking.

I thought it was pretty good for a remake of orginal movie back in 1980 with Jamie Lee Curtis... this is worth watching!
