That was my reaction too!
Thankfully everyone was just watching THE FOG
for #FrightClub

Yeah the two non-Columbo esque episodes were terrible.
The recent HD remaster found a long lost copy of the film that only released in UK/Europe... due to a nude scene with Hazel Court that was banned from being shown in the US.
It also restores its more violent ending.

Would that be the recent... 'European' remaster of the film?
Well, I was late to the party and didn't bring snacks.
But it was nice to hangout with the #FrightClub tonight for one of my favorite Carpenter flicks

Feel like Jamie getting suddenly killed at the last minute would've been an even better shocker for an ending.
Oh, well.

I didn't know that shared a birthday with the Fog.
Happy birthday @badgrgrl21.bsky.social
#FrightClub
And as I said in an earlier comment, it was added in at the last minute with reshoots. Because Carpenter felt it wasn't scary enough

The remake of SALEM'S LOT reminded me of this, the way all the crosses glowed near vampires
Terrible movie, but its cinematography and effects like that were pretty good

A downside of HD is you can also see more of them in the dark in certain scenes

Captain Blake: "What's a matter George Merry... couldn't you find any BLIND PEOPLE to stab?!"

The slow creeping dread and the increasing pulse of the keys from this part of the soundtrack. *Chef's kiss*

Captain Blake must've been pissed,
"I raised everybody from the dead to seek revenge on the Six... and you waste a kill on a LITTLE OLD LADY?!"

Clearly Dan would've lived longer if he had worn flannel

We lose power in my neck of the woods whenever there's a slight breeze.
Power company wishes they had supernatural fog banks as an excuse

Late to the #FrightClub party, just wanted to say I *LOVE* these opening titles (and John Houseman's ghost story)
#Movies #JohnCarpenter #FilmSky #Horror #TheFog #Cinema
They made it for 900 thousand, but Carpenter didn't like the rough cut and did more shooting that made it an even million
They added more gore and new scenes like the prologue with John Houseman and when Barbeau gets attacked on the roof

They only get as far as Nevada before they hit the Graboids

Normally.
But we're presently in un-normal times

Love that shot of the coast as Barbeau drives to the lighthouse

Despite advancements in treating/curing leprosy, there's still hundreds of them in places like India
#FrightClub
This is probably one of my favorite John Carpenter scores
#FrightClub #MusicSky #JohnCarpenter #Fog
Oh, and their Pirates fans
#FrightClub
I got scared when I saw the tag for #JohnCarpenter trending
Thought... something else happened tonight of all nights
#FrightClub #Fog
Same as me
But I'll just pretend I didn't and play along with the rest of the #FrightClub
I guess I started this movie too early... didn't know #FrightClub was also gonna have a watch party for this tonight
Should've gotten the Bluray like the rest of us
