Reviews

“Like the best horror movies, The Fog is held together by a visual motif of perversion, a visually poetic idea. Opaque and amorphous…the fog is both an expanding medium of death and a shroud…The most horrifying episodes are often uncannily beautiful, and the movie is beautiful in moments of peace, too. Carpenter knows how to give his landscapes the hard-edged look of hallucination…A low budget triumph, a genuinely poetic horror film.”

David Denby
New York (1980)

“An elegant, scary thriller of the supernatural.”

Kevin Thomas
Los Angeles Times (1980)

“As stunningly effective as anything John Carpenter has done to date…an uneasy venture down a blind alley.”

Tom Milne
Monthly Film Bulletin (1980)
