Help, the FOG IS COMING FOR MY SON!
Saw this for the first time tonight at a local movie theatre, first part of a double feature with Phantasm. Both have some similar moments, and almost identical music.
The core ghost story is pretty good. However, fog itself is just not scary. It's not explained to the towns people that there's any reason to be afraid or fog, but the woman on the radio is screaming about it like she's really going to convince someone to rescue her son... from the fog of all things. It gets silly to speak of fog in this way. That's not to say it can't hide something dangerous, it just shouldn't be spoken of like it's flowing lava.
