About
You can watch The Fog (1980) on Kanopy with a participating library card, or rent on Apple TV+.
Strange things begin to occur as a tiny California coastal town prepares to commemorate its centenary. Inanimate objects spring eerily to life; Rev. Malone stumbles upon a dark secret about the town's founding; radio announcer Stevie witnesses a mystical fire; and hitchhiker Elizabeth discovers the mutilated corpse of a fisherman. Then a mysterious iridescent fog descends upon the village, and more people start to die.
A thick, supernatural mist rolls into a coastal town to settle an ancient debt left unpaid by its founders. This eerie atmosphere builds steadily until the vengeful ghosts of a shipwrecked crew emerge from the haze.
