๐ฌ The Fog (1980)
When the mist rolls in, terror begins.
John Carpenterโs The Fog is a masterclass in atmospheric horror, weaving an eerie tale of revenge, secrets, and supernatural dread. Set in the sleepy coastal town of Antonio Bay, the story begins on the eve of its 100th anniversary. But as the town prepares to celebrate, an ominous fog rolls in from the sea, bringing with it the vengeful spirits of mariners who perished in a sinister shipwreck a century earlier.
The ensemble cast, led by Adrienne Barbeau, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Hal Holbrook, brings depth and tension to this chilling tale. As the fog envelops the town, strange phenomena and violent deaths begin to unfold. The residents must uncover the dark secrets hidden in Antonio Bayโs past before the ghostly figures in the mist claim their revenge.

The film’s use of practical effects and shadowy cinematography amplifies the horror, making The Fog a timeless classic that lingers in your mind long after the screen fades to black.
โจ A chilling reminder that the past is never truly buriedโand sometimes it comes back for vengeance.
