John Carpenter's The Fog

6/27/2025
It’s five minutes to midnight, Antonio Bay - time for one last story!! That’s right, crank up the worst, loudest jazz record that’s ever been etched onto a 12-inch, we’re talking about a quintessential “this town is going to hell” tale, John Carpenter’s THE FOG!! Along the way, we delve into the origin story of Carpenter and Hill’s follow-up to Halloween, wonder how these 100 year old ghosts know so much about gas stations, fall into bed with Tom Atkins, try to define what a true fish toilet is, and re-litigate our feelings about Jamie Lee Curtis’ scream!! All this, plus Getting Zucked, ghoul knockin’, Stevie Wayne’s promo budget, finding wood, fish boat drinking, John Houseman impressions, and hook you up with an all-new edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!!
