The Fog (1980): Strange to think that Carpenter achieved so much more with so much less when he made Halloween. The Fog is just really boring. It's not scary, it's not entertaining, and worst of all: it's not engaging. The climax is pretty neat, but besides that, it's mostly fast-forwardy stuff. 2 out of 5 lighthouses.
I had the reverse reaction, myself - I found Halloween rather dull.
At any rate, it's still a better film than the godawful remake with pseudo-Superboy.
