There's more to fear than you can see.
Trapped within an eerie mist, the residents of Antonio Bay have become the unwitting victims of a horrifying vengeance.

**I have nothing against remakes… but at least try to do them well!** I've seen John Carpenter's film _The Fog_ a few years ago, but I remember it well and how pleasant it was to see it. The original film didn't shed a drop of fake blood, it wasn't the kind of extremely visual film we've grown used to in recent years, with blood spurting everywhere and chunks of flesh flying towards us. Carpenter made a clean film, w…
