Why is there so much fog?

Why is there so much fog in the movie? Did they use too much dry ice or was the forest itself that way?

They paid for the fog, they're gonna use it!

The movie was so bad they were making a smoke screen to hide it.

Because the fog remover was broken.

They used the fog to influence the mood of the scene. Probably to make it more mysterious and suspenseful feeling.

They didnt do a good job at it, but it was clearly to enhance the mood.

Even "The Fog" didn't have this much fog...

That is not fog, it is pot smoke.
The filmmakers must have been high while making this crapfest.

That would explain a lot.

Because JJ Abrams hadn't invented lens flare yet.

The fog was there so you couldn't see the lousy special effects and bad acting.

I'm going to go with badly implemented mood setting AND it being this director's version of JJ Abrams lens flare. Hwe clearly had a bone in his pants for it.
