Author Topic: The Fog (2005 remake) Wolff King Morrow Master Film Handler Posts: 490 From: Denton, TX, USA Registered: Feb 2004 posted 10-13-2005 03:45 AM                        This movie is a classic example of how utterly terrible most remakes of originals can be. From the decidedly WEAK acting of just about everyone cast in the film, to the outright stupid and directionless plot, this movie BLOWS CHUNKS! I had to pop in the DVD of the original John Carpenter version just to wash the filth of the remake out of my brain. 1 out of 5 stars, and I feel I've been violated having watched it.  |  IP: Logged Don Anderson Master Film Handler Posts: 312 From: West Bend, WI, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 10-14-2005 02:33 AM                     Haven't watched it as of yet. But, I heard that the only worthy part is Tom Wellings shower scene. Thats gotta be bad. Go Superman, Go....away that is.  |  IP: Logged Rob Ferreira Film Handler Posts: 25 From: Conway, NH, USA Registered: Oct 2005 posted 10-20-2005 03:07 PM                        The original Carpenter version wasn't really much to write home about, either.  |  IP: Logged Wolff King Morrow Master Film Handler Posts: 490 From: Denton, TX, USA Registered: Feb 2004 posted 10-21-2005 04:59 AM                        Your opinion.  |  IP: Logged Rob Ferreira Film Handler Posts: 25 From: Conway, NH, USA Registered: Oct 2005 posted 10-21-2005 12:14 PM                        indeed.  |  IP: Logged Kurt Zupin Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 989 From: Maricopa, Arizona Registered: Oct 2004 posted 10-21-2005 09:04 PM                     HOLY SHIT DID THIS MOVIE SUCK ASS! I hate horror films, I jump at things that shouldn't scare you. This movie was so freaking dumb. No redeemable qualities at all. 1 out of five  |  IP: Logged Louis Bornwasser Film God Posts: 4441 From: prospect ky usa Registered: Mar 2005 posted 10-28-2005 03:48 PM                        I haven't seen it all of the way to the end......working at the theatre and only saw about 40%. Is it possible to DEDUCT stars from the director's next film? We are at a minus 2. Louis  |  IP: Logged
