The Fog VHS 1980 Embassy Home Video John Carpenter Horror Sound Warehouse Rental

This is an authentic vintage VHS release of John Carpenter's The Fog (1980), distributed by Embassy Home Entertainment. This copy is a former rental from the legendary Sound Warehouse chain, a Texas-based record and video store that was a cultural hub for music and film collectors. Sound Warehouse eventually merged into Blockbuster in the early 1990s and was rebranded as Blockbuster Music, making tapes from its rental library historically significant pieces of American video culture. The tape includes original rental stickers such as the "$2 Two Days" label, "Be Kind Please Rewind" tag, FBI warning, and the Sound Warehouse barcode (#1009-4750). These details authenticate it as a true ex-rental copy from one of the most iconic chains of the VHS era. The film itself is one of Carpenter's most celebrated horror works, starring Adrienne Barbeau, Jamie Lee Curtis, Janet Leigh, Hal Holbrook, and John Houseman. It runs 89 minutes and is presented in Hi-Fi Mono format. With its atmospheric visuals and supernatural themes, The Fog has earned a reputation as a cult classic and remains a cornerstone of 1980s horror cinema. This VHS is not just a copy of the film but a collectible artifact representing the golden age of video rentals. Rarely do original ex-rental tapes with intact labels and provenance survive, making this a desirable addition for horror collectors, Carpenter fans, and those preserving the history of rental culture
