A Face in the Fog is a 1936 American mystery film directed by Robert F. Hill.

SYNOPSIS
A mysterious killer known as The Fiend uses an unusual bullet as his trademark for his murders.

June Collyer (her last film) plays a meddlesome reporter who claims she can recognize "the fiend" because she saw his face in the fog (in a mirror). She becomes his target. Fellow reporter (Lloyd Hughes) tries to protect her, along with a ditzy photographer (Al. St. John). After there is a murder in a theater, the playwright (Lawrence Gray) pitches in to help solve the case.
