Review of The Fog

The Fog (1964)
Spooky thriller with great music
20 August 2011
Warning: Spoilers
I saw it on the DVD of Mosderbaer…

The Movie is great and works well with the Gothic ambiance, lovely photography and great music by Hemant da. Waheeda simply rocks as well…

But it left some loose ends after the Court punished the culprit who confessed… What happened to all the special effects which indicated her 'bhatakti atma' ( wandering restless spirit ) of Poonam, the first wife? All the rippling curtains, banging doors and rocking chairs, and white apparition which torments Waheeda? Did 'it' go away after 'hearing. the court verdict? or was it just her hallucination? Can they live happily ever after in the same Havel, just 'thinking' that spirit has finally gone away for good? If he Director means 'No explanation, just have fun', then its is mindless entertainment, isn't it? This kind of loose ends were plenty in another famous spooky thriller by Raj Khosla too–'Woh Kaun Thi'?
