The Fog (1980)
Reel Deep Dive returns to the filmography of John Carpenter and Debra Hill with this supernatural horror film. Set in a sleepy coastal city in the midst of its centennial festivities, The Fog's action centers upon a group of vengeful ghosts who sweep into the community under the cover of a glowing fog and exact vengeance for the deliberate shipwreck that killed them upon the city's founding. It features an ensemble cast headlined by Adrienne Barbeau, Jamie Lee Curtis, Tom Atkins, Janet Leigh, and Hal Holbrook.
Ryan is joined by Cheryl and Pete as they deconstruct the narrative, pacing, performances, music, and behind the scenes drama of this film. Thematic talking points include historical revisionism, religious hypocrisy, and how Carpenter uses inside baseball to get his fans more invested in his storytelling.
