Savant rounds out the week with fewer (but more sincere!) reviews.

John Carpenter's The Fog is a good ghost story that becomes an absorbing experience, thanks to the fine extras in MGM's Special Edition. Carpenter is particularly open when telling us how he saved the picture in reshoots. The disc is a fine transfer of this oft- pan'n scanned film, as well.

Savant went on an errand yesterday, and ran into cinematographer Jack Cardiff in a hotel. I'd met him only briefly last year, but this time I actually happened to have a camera with me, and someone to take a snapshot. He's incredibly friendly, as proved by his willingness to have a fan picture taken. So Savant gets to act like a show-off tourist today!

More reviews this weekend! Glenn Erickson
