Carpenter doesn't need to be compared to Hitchcock. He created his own style of terror. He's made some of the most memorable horror films of the 20th century.

I watch it every birthday, on Halloween.. love it, its the atmosphere, incredible

I loved the movie then and I love the movie now, to me it is a classic and a perfect wee horror movie.

Why I love The Fog so much is because it's a classic Ghost story with real characters real people getting caught up in something so unexpected and terrifying that to me it's perfect and I'm not bothered what any snobby know all film critics might want to say to the contrary. Thank you John and the late gorgeous super talented Debra Hill ❤❤

Still love this movie watched it long ago when it was first released when I was much younger lol it truly scared me to pieces back then and still does to this day whenever its foggy out I always think of this movie and the scene with the fog rolling in I’m still scared on a foggy night this was and is one of the greatest movies made I loved it then and love it to this day I didn’t like the remake of the fog you can’t remake a true classic

Janet Leigh is right. These films are fascinating because they can be a most likeable way to be scared. The Fog probably earned my best respect for that when I first saw it as a kid.

The best ghost story movie ever. It's a great movie and scared the crap out of me when I saw it in the theater. I still have the VHS and DVD versions of the movie.

One of my FAVORITE Movies! I had zero idea it came from Stonehenge 😮. Growing up around Bodega Ca its always neat to watch it.

I moved to the English Coast partly due to this movie. We have a sunken medieval village off shore and on certain foggy nights it is said by the locals, that if you listen, you can hear the ghostly submerged bells of the sunken church. We also have a famous devil dog who roams the area too. I absolutely love it!

Janet Leigh!!!!!

Still one of my favorite John Carpenter films. Probably just behind Halloween.

When I saw The FOG I was fascinated by the Movie so I bought it to my collection of Scary Movies like I said I grew upbon scary movies got a collection which I enjoy every once & awhile even have that one Halloween the 1 through on up just loved ❤ them & watching passed on to my kids just playing around if they didn't listen I would say Chucky was Going yo get you oh they listened they were scared as they got older I showed them my scary movies they were into not scared any more cuz now they ve seen all that I have & love them their older now now on their own that leaves 1 my baby my youngest he enjoys my movies & gets scared once in awhile cyz I scare him just for laughs it's funny & Playful we sometimes make popcorn & drink cokes but it's been years I'm older much older in my 50+ but still enjoy my movies to look back on but love❤ them all & enjoy them memories of ol scary movies

2022

Any Mortician fans? ".....what is thaaaat...."

Such a classic. One of my favourites. The remake was complete shitte, though.

Man did that re-make suck compared to this.

RIP Debra Hill

Saw this movie the first time when i was 13. Now i'm in my mid 30s and i still get chills when i hear that piano theme... I think what makes this movie so special was the lack of commerical it had. I mean in compare to movies like Halloween, Nightmare of Elmstreet or Friday the 13., this movie still is a insiders tip imo. Plus it was way more of a ghoststory instead of a bloody slasher. You weren't scared of those ghost seamen cause they were killing people. You were scared cause you couldn't really see them. They were like those dark shaped figures you see in your sleep. Things you can't see scare you the most.

Great behind the scenes look at one of my favourite ever films, thanks for posting ...

my favorite john carpenter movie hands down

great movie....why don't they make movies like this anymore?...
