On April 21st -- "Fog Day" -- celebrate John Carpenter and Debra Hill's 1980 supernatural slasher with a new 4K restoration!

Adrienne Barbeau leads the iconic cast (including Jamie Lee Curtis, Tom Atkins, Janet Leigh and Hal Holbrook) as radio DJ Stevie Wayne. We gather to celebrate the film and mourn those who lost their cinematic lives in 1980!
"Highly original blend of bare bones folk tale horror and metaphor. The film works like JC's scores, by spare rhythmic punctuation." -- Guillermo del Toro
