"11:55, almost midnight. Enough time for one more story. One more story before 12:00, just to keep us warm,"  states Mr. Machen to open John Carpenter's pivot from the more real world horror of his runaway independent success from Halloween to a more traditional ghost story with The Fog in 1980. While we're never clued in as to why Mr. Machen has been tasked with getting this group of children through this particular night, the campfire tale is a fitting way for this story to begin, setting the stage for a stimulating tale of murder and theft, privilege and revenge.     Cheers!
