The budget of the original was 1 million dollars and the remake was 18 million but it somewhat was worse than the original

The Fog. 1980. Still a superior film. Thank you for the side by side comparison Matt.

The only thing that the 2005 film had going for it is when the ghost ship passes by the Sea Grass. In the 1980 film, we only see the ship itself. In the 2005 film, we can actually see a few ghosts on the ship when it passes by. I also liked the scene with the ghost trying to break into Andy's room in both films. But, personally, I loved the 1980 original film much more than its remake. My opinion.

No comparison the original movie is a classic the opening scene sets the tone.

One of my favorite movies of all time love John carpenter

I prefer the 1980 one

The 2005 version was like they used a bunch of high school kids for the movie's characters.

Of all the great films out there and their inferior remakes, The Fog has probably the biggest difference in quality between the two.

John Carptenter's film was so much more intense. AND the fog generated on the set by the effects people and lit by the brilliant cinematographer, Dean Cundey was far more effective than what appeared in the remake. Carpenter's film will continue to be the one remembered, not the remake.

John Carpenter is amazing! Great job, Matt!

I have absolutely loved the original for years. I never saw it in the theatres sadly, but I saw it on VHS in the mid 80's. The remake was a horrid let down. The only thing I can give it a bit of credit for is that it does give a little more of the back story. But the mood, music, cast and direction style of the original just can't be topped.

No matter which film you like the story of vengeance being fulfilled remains the same. Always felt bad for the folks on the island who didn't know that the islands wealth was built on lies but I loved that the sailors kicked ass with no remorse!

OG Fog all day

I feel like the whole remake movie was ruined just by that one scene where the ghost breaks into the kid's room & honks like a squeaky paper horn 😂😂

Now you know why Rob Zombie Halloween was not a shot for shot remake it was longer different and more story driven. John Carpenters original is still the best and can’t be touched but Robs remake offered a different take and a new spin it was not a complete copy-cat this movie tried that and failed HARD! Also Robs film is the only Halloween movie to take place in a span of 17 years seeing Michael for several days, weeks,months and years all four seasons Fall,Winter,Spring,Summer. The other Halloween movies take place in a span of two days or just one day.

Please do Carrie 1976 and 2013

So, you got a remake that is essentially the same just with more peng-pong-boink-zoink and a city run by 23year old. hmm ... Photography looks great in both films, different time, different look. Where JCs version is simple creating true fear, RWs version makes everything glow and explode rendering the suspense laugheble. And of course ... American Flag. Because that's important. And of course someone has to be tied to someone because, yes. Makes the story that much more interesting and thoughtful, because, yes. Lots of chliches unnesassarily squeezed into a classic film.

Never seen such a divided movie

I had never seen this before but your video is excellent!!! Thanks for the hard work!

I think the less is more approach is something that should have been kept or just not remaking an already perfect ghost story Not revealing the ghosts completely, keeping the mystery of the back story and using the fog itself, the time it was released benefitted it also The remake was just not good, it was coming off the back of them early 2000’s slashers/horrors which included a fair few remakes that were just bombing in cinema. You either loved them or hated them - I hated this one

The music makes the 1980 fog a lot scarier and the pirates. The are more scary when they don’t talk. 2005 version is too cheesy.

The only good things about the remake were the special effects and make up on the ghosts.

1980 ! The Orginal ! The Rest is Nothing !

Do the Amityville Horror comparison

Can you please do an "Open Your Eyes"/"Vanilla Sky" side-by-side?

both movies are awesome 10/10

This should have never been remade!!!

1980 only

Yes You Back Again Matt Skuta Uploads Next: Cinderella (1950/1996/2015/2021)

Great job with the remake I love how they dove deeper into the people of the Elizabeth Dane and how the descendants of the founding fathers were targeted and the story if Elizabeths resurrection and return to her true love I really enjoyed the artifacts appearing on the beach and especially the story of the town in the photos I’m a fan of the classic and the remake

i think the Creatures and the Fog in the original Fog was more creepy and scarier the remakes Creatures and Fog they didn't scare me like the original did . i was a kid when the original came out from like 6 to 15 when it was dark and a Fog was outside if it was real thick i would think of the movie and go back in side as quick as i could

1980 version is better saw it when I was 8 in 1992 on tbs at the time 😈

Never knew this movie existed

80s Version.. John Carpenter.. saw at the theater rated R ...myBig brother got us in scared the shat out of us..

Matt Is back

1980 the Real fog. Masterpiece.

Selma Blair is not a patch on Adrienne Barbeau.

After seeing you posted two Carpenter movies in a row at THIS particular time, I have a suspicion you’re a fan of the podcast Blank Check. Amirite?

I only seen the Remake version.

Compare the live action Charlotte's web with the animated one.

Dean Cundey's cinematography is so good in the original. The remake looks so boring.

I actually don't mind the remake because I didn't expect a lot from it before seeing it,but as far as remakes go I've seen worse.

Sadly the 2005 is the most forgotten film in movie history

I still don’t understand why the guy (I’m assuming he was supposed to be dead?) got up momentarily and almost stabbed her or something? Maybe I wasn’t paying good enough attention?

Finally Your Back Again Stay Safe

Great !!!

I dont know the remake just has a more "Supernatural" feel....

George orwell animal farm (1954) (1999) side-by-side comparison

Please matt skuta has the comparison of tobey maguier's spiderman, andrew garfield's and tom holland's

The good things about the remake was the angle of making the girl not only a descendant of one of the killers but also, perhaps, the descendant of Blake, so once Blake found his long-lost love again - his soul and the others could be at peace, and some of the makeup and new ways the spirits got their revenge.

Ohh Hell No!!! 1980's. Way Better

No comparison at all Fog '85 was a classic , Fog '05 TRASH!!

1980 version was the best I saw it on tnt I was 8 in 1992 it was the scariest movie I have seen since the evil dead movie from the 80s the remake of the evil dead was good can’t wait for the sequel 🎉

1980 vintage horrors are more realistic than a running modern day zOmbie.....

1980s easily

2005 is surpassed the other. Better movie better well know cast too. Better soundtrack too. A 2000s update was a needed. Not to be over done in 2010s or 2020s

Please inside 2007 vs 2018, thanks

I like the eighty’s movie

La de 2005 es una auténtica mierda.

Definitely 1980s THE FOG.

1980 All the way

the 2005 is trash

A film based on Scandinavian and Japanese folklore

1980s version just looks comical, 😂😂😂 i dont know why people bitch about the 2005 film it was way way better.

Without question, the original is far superior. The 2005 version is nothing more than a pathetic failure.

Stupid unnecessary remake.

1980 is much better

The Muppets baby kill count

The 2005 version was terrible, moreso because the 1980 version was so good.

Better than original

1980 movie for me i thought the remake was abit lame

L’originale è sempre meglio Per essere un remake però non male

You guys need to Lose the John carpentar nostalgia Goggles and give the remake a chance

I loved the 2005 version, although I haven´t seen the one from 1980.
