Release in early 1980 this movie was based on the novel of the same name written by the well known horror writer James Herbert. It is rightfully given an 18 certificate due to it gory and bloody scenes involving some horrific deaths.

Jan Pienkowski was born in Warsaw in 1936 and eventually came to England just after WW2.
Jan has illustrated for a number of authors and was a pioneer of the modern pop-up books for children.
He has collaborated with Helen Nicoll on all of the Meg and Mog books and has his own website at www.janpienkowski.com
In true Meg and Mog fashion, Jan uses very rich, vibrant colours as backgrounds which really appeal to children. There are more white backgrounds in this book than others in the same series due to the 'setting' of the story, let's face it what other colour could you choose to depict snow?!
Another appealing aspect ...

Beginning in 2002 as a home-recorded solo experimental hip-hop project, Andrew Broder's Fog has evolved almost beyond recognition. On this fourth album, he is joined by two other musicians, transforming Fog into a live band playing classic 90s-style shambolic, lo-fi indie rock in the vein of Sebadoh or Pavement. The music may have changed but Broder's acerbic wordsmithery remains, and this album has been championed by critics as the one likely to catapult him to success.
