296 - The Fog (1980) LIVE!

Neon Brainiacs (80s Horror Podcast)

Lock your doors, maniacs, as we take a look at the 1980 John Carpenter ghost story The Fog. For this episode we recorded live at the Riverside Drive-In during their April Ghouls Monster-Rama, and were joined by Zone Zero vocalist Jordan Sloan and filmmaker Zane Hershberger. We even get a few surprise drop-ins from friends of the show. While we take a trip to Antonio Bay we also discuss topics such as a mustache-less Tom Atkins, the film's similarities to Scooby Doo, and a Peepsi taste test.
