You won't be disappointed!

just watch it!

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Back in the 80s, when attention spans lasted longer than fractions of seconds and politically cliche was not the story arc everybody was doing--a horror movie painting nazi's as the villians (not the 'social warriors' of today's modern day nazish censorship we see in hollywood) was made. It had a unique plot, great effects for the time, good acting and and cinematography / atmosphere. 20 or so years later, it and other films like 1984 which predicted the dystopian era we presently live in today--become reality; and classics like this hidden gem: 'Death Ship (1980)' are seldom discovered, or worse--censored out of existence to protect the naive optimists from the counter balance reality and universal truth that threatens their fragile paradigm mutating egos.

Death Ship rams into a cruise line ship. The survivors rescue an unconscious Captain Ashland (heavy-moaner George Kennedy). Adrift in the sea, the survivors lifeboat meets the Death Ship again. Of course, they decide to board the evil vessel in hopes of rescue; but instead, solve the haunted past that plagues this malevolent boat.Absurd in the extreme, "Death Ship" remains serious even though some moments are unintentionally hilarious (death by peppermint candy and George Kennedy becomes possessed by a Nazi). "Death Ship" contains actual moments of dread.Although there's dread, the film capsizes in underdevelopment. The actors sleepwalk through their roles except for the kids (don't get me started on their performances). Continuous shots of pumping engines kill the pacing and drag the film to a presentable running time. The editing causes sea sickness. "Death Ship" manages to create some interesting silly deaths and illogical decisions by the characters; but by the end of the film, the violence wallows in bad taste and idiocy.

Drifting for hours in a lifeboat, the survivors of sunken ocean liner board a mysterious ship without crew or passengers and which may or may not be haunted in this Canadian horror film. Made on a noticeably modest budget, the film supplies some effective creepy moments without relying special effects, such as constant cutaways to the ship's engines, moving by themselves and set to foreboding music. The first death scene even manages to be unsettling without any gore at all as the ship seems to toy with his victim, raising him up and down by a rope, before eventually offing him. Unfortunately none of the other death scenes are anything near as suspenseful and the film concludes leaving several questions hanging including why exactly the ship retains a bloodlust, even knowing of its violent past. Still, this is a more accomplished film than its low IMDb rating would suggest. The sound effects are especially remarkable, with not only all the expected ship noises but accentuated footstep and gushing water sounds. The film also features two child actors who not only look like real brother and sister, but banter and argue like real siblings too, with Jennifer McKinney particularly effective as the girl. George Kennedy is also as decent as one would expect as the pompous ocean liner captain, though it is a far cry from the Academy Award winner's best work.

Creepy and exciting movie about some shipwrecked lead to remains of a deserted ghost ship that's been missing for more than 40 years , since WWII, it is packed with good actors and slick direction . The film concerns about a passenger luxury liner is crashed by a strange freighter . The castaways enter into the rare German ship and after encounter themselves trapped and they figure out that things are not as they should. A frightening vessel lost from the 40s at a remote region nowadays is floating drift.The mysterious Nazi vessel is lost at sea for more than 50 years.But one time aboard the cavernous, eerie ship, the group encounter that the decaying Oceaner freighter is anything but deserted. Boarding the ship results to be a big mistake since the tragedy that overtook the lives of crew and captain lingers and starts to affect the present passengers. When a series of bizarre occurrences happen and the crew becomes caught in a web of ghastly deeds ,they soon learn is inhabited by haunting previous crew.The picture contains scary suspense, thrills, terror,tension, chills and is quite entertaining. Deserted ship is portrayed as a complete riddle with weird events,screams and grisly horrifying happenings. The movie paid attention to building up a terrifying atmosphere instead of violent and stabbing killing spree.The action takes completely place into a rusty ship wreck .The argument isn't original but it's being gradually revealed with nutty enchantment , such as ¨The shinning(Kubrick)¨ style and it attracts viewer's attention. The picture is starred by fine actors, doing some correct performances, as Richard Crenna, George Kennedy, Sally Ann Howes and nice secondary role for Saul Rubinek .If you're enthusiastic of the mystery tales and B films, so you'll encounter this picture to be agreeable. If your interest lies on a more cerebral terror movie,then I highly recommend you skip this one.This eerie movie is rightly directed by Alvin Rakoff during the 8os, he is a craftsman Canadian director as cinema as television . The film is recommended for all horror lovers which will find many nice eerie shots though not very logical but still their appetite for gruesome scenes will be satisfied.Other adaptation about 'ghost ships' are the following : For television titled ¨The triangle(2001)¨by Lewis Teague with Luke Perry, Dan Cortese , Olivia Dábo and Polly Shannon, the high budgeted by Joel Silver titled ¨ The Ghost ship (2002) ¨ by Steven Beck with Julianne Margules, Ron Eldard and Gabriel Byrne and for Sci-Fi channel titled ¨The ghost voyage¨ with Antonio Sabato and Gary-Hiroyaki Tagawa.
