The Fog Reviews

In a world where John Carpenter's The Fog still exists, I cannot think of a single valid reason to watch this.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Oct 15, 2018

Never will you wish more fervently for an Adrienne Barbeau cameo, just for old time's sake. Your prayers will be in vain.

Full Review | Aug 16, 2007

The production values are above par, but as in Carpenter's original, seeing ghosts is less scary than imagining them.

Yet another anaemic horror retread starring a cast of good-looking 온라인카지노추천 totty.

Don't be afraid.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 1, 2006

If you are a fan of the original film, this remake might interest you. It's not badly made. But why was it made at all?

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 25, 2006

Another remake bites the dust.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 14, 2006

A dull, stupid, boring picture, inferior in every way to the John Carpenter film it remakes, but it's bad for the same reason a lot of effects-driven movies are bad.

| Feb 3, 2006

Mildly scary here and there.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 29, 2005

Either way, give it a week or two and it's a sure bet The Fog will already have disappeared from theaters along with the morning dew.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 29, 2005

[It] pales in comparison to Carpenter's original fogbanks, some of which were created by optical effects nearly as ancient as filmmaking itself but still vastly more believable than anything seen in this absolutely dreadful and just plain dull remake.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Oct 29, 2005

That John Carpenter, credited here as a producer, had a hand in diminishing his own legacy would be tragic if any of this mattered.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Oct 29, 2005

Like most remakes, The Fog is pretty unnecessary.

Full Review | Oct 29, 2005

Making concessions at every turn to the youth-horror market, the film slashes the ages of its protagonists by some 15 years, and its IQ follows suit.

Full Review | Oct 27, 2005

We're meant to be unsettled by digital spectres, reckless Mack trucks, and rotting old pirates who look every bit as terrifying as the guy on the Fisherman's Friend cold-lozenge box.

| Original Score: D- | Oct 19, 2005

I was held in suspense throughout The Fog, aching to learn the answer to its central riddle: Why would any one remake such a crummy movie?

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 17, 2005

The fog also does something genuinely eerie: It causes 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.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 17, 2005

Add one more to the list of unnecessary horror remakes.

Full Review | Oct 17, 2005

It's typical of pic's adherence to rigid genre conventions that the very first victims are brazen hotties who are shown drinking, dancing and wearing revealing attire prior to their deaths.

Full Review | Oct 17, 2005

This Fog lacks the one thing the original had -- originality -- but it qualifies as more than a mist opportunity.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 17, 2005
