The remake of the Fog didnt really add enough to the original justify having been made. They gave it a slightly better storyline, slightly better characters, and made everything seem a little more modern and that was about it. I enjoyed it just because i like stuff like ghostly pirates, but it really wasnt that amazing. I really should have rented a lot of this stuff before buying it, like that wicker man remake that was horrible compared to the original.
I'm looking into getting stuff off the internet right now. Most of these movies have come from places like blockbuster, which sell mainly recent stuff.

The Fog remake...widescreen VHS tape, new, $0.99 at the 99 Cents Only Store. Quite happy with the purchase!

Explore some classics and serious grindhouse flicks. deepdiscount.com will take care of you on those counts. Buying from local videostores gets you the occasional treasure, but it also leaves you tempted to settle for crap every now and again. I built my VHS collection at a local video store and ended up with a bunch of stuff I don't watch, but then again I also found Suspiria for three bucks and Bride of Chucky for a dollar.

I like those videohound books, they have one for cult films you should check out as it will give you a HUGE list of cult films to look out for. I have the Asian cinema volume and am adding to that list right now...

I am a big fan of the original film, and was prepared to be pretty harsh on this one, but for the most part I thought it was fine.

Ick...that shit was stickier than bubblegum. It was, like, a feel-good horror movie.

I hated it.
