That girl from Lost angered me with her whole John Carpenter is "ok" but we have much better technology and will blow his movie away crap. Oh, and as for Bon Jovi, he was in Young Guns II, I liked that movie and Vampires Los Muertes or whatever was so so, I mean, it wasn't THAT bad.

I just found out The Fog remake is rated PG-13. How? Why?!

Doesn't seem like a good omen to me.

Hate to burst your bubble, but the original isnt R either.

Whops on that last post. It's R in the states, but only 14A here in Canada. Heres the back of the MGM DVD release. See down near the bottom? Pretty small, but you can see the R symol, and the Canadian 14 symbol [yellow triangle] right beside it.

Since the original was one of my favorites I thought just maybe the remake would be at least okay. Just got back from seeing it, save your $8.50 folks, it fucking blows!!!!!! I'm so mad I think I'll jump over to the n00b section and tell a few of them to Fuck Off. :mad: That should cheer me up a little. What a shitty movie.....:mad:

Bah. I figured it would be...I also love the original. Did they keep the story exactly the same? Or change it? What sucked about it? DETAILS DETAILS ;)

I want to know all about, it look f'ing horrible and RT had it at 0% for a bit now it's at 9%. Damn... wonder when the Thing remake is coming and I wonder if it'll be PG.

Well I guess I am going to be in the minority here because I actually enjoyed it. I liked it better than the orginal.

And believe me I will be the first to rally against remakes of films, I fuckin hate them.

You should heard me screamin when they remade Cape Fear. (They remade Cape Fear??) Yes NOOBIE.

I dont feel like it was "The Thing" remake caliber but I enjoyed the story with more perspective.

I will say that the cast tanked and if it wasnt for a good story to follow I would have been demanding my money back.

Plus I think some of the CGI stuff was a little unecessary.

I guess I'll have to see it on HBO before passing judgement but as for my Thing comment... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0426373/
So, is a mini series worse than it being PG-13?

Yes...where were you when I was arguing this point and no one was on my side?!

Review
 
With the marching on of current Hollywood remakes this film might have different. Guess what? It wasn't. Since most of the newest remakes suck I was hoping for better. Well having a friend in the movie theater who could get me in for free helped.
The trailer for this movie had me all excited. The Fog happens to be a favorite movie of mine. So the lights in the theater dimmed & the film plotted along in the predictable style. Gone are the hooks & knifes from the undead. Replaced by CGI cheesy special effects. The acting was on par with watchng grass grow. Forget making fun of this movie because it's not even worth that. There's nothing believable or scary about it. We're treated to the usual jump editing & weird angles that we've seen a thousand times before. I went into this movie with an open mind & came out glad I didn't spend my money. So in the end the Fog wasn't really a character as I was hoping. It was a bowel movement. :(

Yah. It was horrible.

I liked the Amityville and House of Wax remakes muuuuch more. This was absolutley disgusting, and actually a disgrace to the genre. It actually reminded me A LOT of I Know What You Did Last Summer. Which obviously isn't a good thing.

And the acting, oh GOD.

That chick from Lost obviously can't play more than one role, because she WAS Shannon from Lost in this movie.
