The Fog (1980)

Against the backdrop of spine-chilling stories of drowned mariners and a 100-year-old shipwreck lying on the bottom of the sea, the peaceful community of the coastal town of Antonio Bay, California is making preparations to celebrate its centennial. However–as strange supernatural occurrences blemish the festivities–an impenetrable opaque mist starts to shroud the seaside village, leading to unaccountable disappearances and the spilling of warm bright-red blood. One long century ago, a hideous crime was committed by the town’s elders. Now, the restless dead have returned for revenge, demanding justice. Is there something evil lurking in the fog? ??Nick RiganasAwards: 1 win & 3 nominationsBudget: $1,000,000 (estimated)Worldwide Gross: $21,448,782Soundtrack: Lap One ((uncredited))John CarpenterAdrienne Barbeau, Jamie Lee Curtis, Janet Leigh1980-02-08 (United States)tt0080749
