This week on The Seat Struck Movie Podcast, John and Quinn return back to our John Carpenter Watch Series to discuss the atmospheric 1980 classic THE FOG. We discuss the background and development of the film before discussing the plot of the movie. We wrap up as always by giving our scores. This was a great watch, and we're excited to discuss some of the heavy-hitter Carpenter 80s flicks coming up over the next few weeks. Our friend Curtis is away but will be back with us again next episode.
Next, we discuss what we watched this week (Curtis was kind enough to share his notes despite his absence). Stay tuned for next episode as we discuss one of Quinn's canon favourites.
