4/07: The Fog has an excellent story with a so-so buildup, only to be met with a disappointing ending.

The acting is fair, but Adrienne Barbeau is a mistake. I'm not surprised her career didn't last long. I wish Jamie Lee Curtis had more to work with. But it's nice to see her and Janet Leigh together in the same film. Tom Atkins is great as always. He's fun to watch.

All in all, John Carpenter could've done more to make The Fog a better horror picture.
