The fog kills the sailors as well as the local weatherman and Andy Wayne's nanny, all descendants of the town founders. Stevie Wayne is trapped by herself in the lighthouse/radio station as the fog rolls in.Eventually, a group of survivors, namely Elizabeth Solley (Jamie Lee Curis), Andy Wayne (Ty Mitchell), Father Malone (Hal Holbrook) Cathy Williams (Janet Leigh) and (I think) Nick Castle (Tom Atkins) convene in Father Malone's church. They hole up in Father Malone's study, and the Fog surrounds them. They decide that Father Malone must be the only one of the six still alive, and Father Malone take the cross from his study (Whats left of blake's gold) and goes out into the church, which i now inhabited by the fog, now in human form. He hands overthe cross to the ghost of Blake and the fog recedes. Meanwhile, Stevie is fighting off the ghosts with a fishing hook, and the fog recedes just before they kill her. All except father Malone drive down to Antonio Bay. Stevie starts broadcasting a warning about the fog from the station. Father malone is killed by the ghosts who return, thus completing their revenge.
