John Carpenter's classic 1980 horror THE FOG has been stunningly restored in 4K. Antonio Bay, California has turned a hundred years old. As the residents of this small, quaint harbour town begin to celebrate, an eerie fog envelops the shore and from its midst emerge dripping, demonic spectres, victims of a century old shipwreck, seeking revenge. Starring Jamie Lee Curtis, the FOG is a tense and ghoulish tale that confirms John Carpenter as a master of terror.
The 2018 restoration of THE FOG was made using the original camera negative which was scanned at 4K resolution in 16bit and we applied a HDR Dolby Vision workflow to the restoration process which resulted in the creation of a 4K DCP, HDR & SDR UHD version and a new SDR HD version which were produced with the same high technological standards as today's biggest international film releases.

- Retribution: Uncovering John Carpenter's THE FOG: A brand retrospective documentary produced by Ballyhoo Motion Pictures and featuring interviews with cinematographer Dean Cundey, production designer/editor Tommy Lee Wallace, photographer Kim Gottleib-Walker, make-up effects artist Steve Johnson, Carpenter biographer John Muir, music historian Daniel Schweiger, visual effects historian Justin Humphreys and assistant Larry Franco

Beware the fog....
After being aware of this film growing up, I've wanted to see this film for a long time. I'm happy to say that it didn't disappoint. Anything attached to John Carpenter is likely a safe bet. Yes, it's born from 1980, but it's still very watchable and a great way to spend 1hr 31mins. Recommended.Â

Bit dated. But still good to watch
I like all of the John Carpenter films. Along with Escape From New York. This looks a bit dated and it didn't have the biggest budget. Ok it's not the greatest film you will ever see but it entertains, and it is a bit scary in parts. Good to see such a young Jamie Lee Curtis. That's a bonus. But just sit back, open a few beers, and enjoy.
