The Fog

Tom Welling, Maggie Grace, Selma Blair and Rade Sherbedgia star in this 2005 horror remake of John Carpenter's 1980 film. The town of Antonio Bay is preparing for it's 100th anniversary, but it's in for a devastating nightmare when an eerie fog inhabited by vengeful ghosts haunts it. Welling (Smallville) plays fisherman, Nick Castle, Grace plays his girlfriend, Elizabeth Williams who finds herself connected to the events, Blair plays Radio DJ, Stevie Wayne and Sherbedgia plays Captain Blake, the leader of the ghosts seeking revenge on the ancestors responsible for their murders years ago. This is OK, but the original is better. I still recommend it.

This movie was without a doubt the worst movie in existence. This should be classified as a comedy if it is actually real. The only point i was horrified at was that all the people in the theater had paid their own hard earned money to see that picture. This flick is comparable to Dudlee Do RIght with Brenden Frasier. I mean this was bad. someone said, at least it wasn't as bad as "the village" i said at least the village has a plot, at least the village had thought put into it, at least the village had a big name director. This movie is a disgrace to our film industry. To think we actually put out movies like this. It is disgusting, we need real entertainment. This is my cry for help HELP

This is a movie you can turn off at any point in time and not miss a thing. The only thing frightening about it was that they spent good money to make it. I found some of the "horror" scenes to be pretty corny - and I'm generally easy to scare. There are some scenes that aren't necessary for the story line and then it seems there are scenes missing to pull it all together. I'm giving it a 2 because the special effects were pretty good (the fog, the dead people). It seemed the actors were doing a pretty good job but there was no plot to pull it together. Too bad because it seemed like a good idea for a movie. I don't recommend this movie unless you have time and money to waste.

Although in all honesty the story doesn't make much sense if you think about it (and you really don't have to think that hard to realize that it doesn't make much sense) this somehow manages to lead into a decent enough last twenty minutes or so. The only problem is that this is more than an hour and a half long. Mercifully, I found myself repeatedly waking suddenly after dropping off to sleep for that period. That's the impact the movie had on me; that's pretty much the level of suspense it kept me in throughout. Yes, the ending isn't bad, but it's questionable whether the average person is going to make it there. It's a bad story that makes little sense, and generally weak performances throughout. I'll give it a bit of credit for somehow managing to put all that "badness" aside and come up with a relatively decent (even if it does make as little sense as the rest of the movie) finish. (3/10)
