On the inaugural voyage of The AndyPlex, Andy interviews Philip Gawthorne, a writer in Hollywood, to hear his journey. Philip and Andy are huge John Carpenter fans so they decided to rewatch and explore the classic ghost story, "The Fog," on the actual weekend of its 40th Anniversary (February 8th 2020). Why does this film last? Why do ghost stories stay with us? What does "The Fog" warn us about?
