Cult Movies/Old horror miniseries television show

Question
Hi I remember as a kid watching an old show either in the late 70's early 80's that had to do with a couple getting lost in fog in the woods. I believe the fog had zombies. I also remember Vincent Price as hosting the main show this little series was on. I would love for my daughter to watch this miniseries, but I can't remember the name.  Can you please help?

Answer
Hi Heather,

I'll have a guess and say the show you're looking for is either called "Mystery!" which ran and was hosted by Vincent Price from 1981 to 1989, or "Escapes" which was from 1986 and lasted 5 episodes I think.

Try the following links:

http://www.amazon.com/Escapes-Vincent-Price/dp/B00000K3B7/ref=cm_syf_dtl_txt_44/...

I'm doubting that neither of the two series I mentioned are correct, though if so they can purchased on VHS at Amazon.com or eBay.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help... which is strange because  I'm fan of Vincent Price!

Best of luck,
Ryan
