Great Idea with Terrifying Moments

John Carpenter in his prime was a true master of the genre. He reinvented the serial killer film with HALLOWEEN, and proved equally adept with the monster movie in 1982's THE THING. In between, he wrote and directed this supernatural ghost story and it shows an auteur bringing his 'A' game. Unfortunately, it falls short of being a classic - both in the horror genre and in Carpenter's oeuvre. It feels underwritten. It needs more character and plot development. It has a fantastic premise, revealed through creepy, tension building first half-hour. And then. . . Well it races to a climax. As if there's no middle. Which is fine for short attention spans, but not very rewarding. I wanted more.

Wissenswertes
Although this was essentially a low budget independent movie, John Carpenter chose to shoot the movie in anamorphic widescreen Panavision. This decision gave the movie a grander feel for the viewer so it didn't seem like a low budget horror movie.

In a few scenes, Dan the local weatherman is tracking the fog bank on his weather radar, and giving reports. Weather radars have never been able to detect fog. Today's most powerful state-of-the-art NEXRAD radars are sensitive enough to detect bugs, birds, and smoke plumes, but still not fog.
