Le Bateau de la mort

This is precisely the kind of old horror film that I wouldn’t mind if someone remade it today. That abandoned ship has so much potential!!! It’s a shame the script evidently doesn’t know what to do with it. The story is quite naive already from the start, but the quality rises sharply once the likeable gang gets on board, until the screenwriter wastes the few ideas he had, that is. When the plot about the mad captain begins, I came to terms with the fact that the film will fall into a mess that will be watchable, but pointless to remember. (06/10/2009)

Death Ship is a good film. It has a good atmosphere of growing madness and a great setting where you just need a couple of actors. However, it's also convoluted in places, and unfortunately, the picture quality isn't always what the film deserves. Sometimes you should really see more than you actually see. I'm still definitely giving it a positive rating, because this is a film I enjoyed watching. I'd love to watch it again sometime. (08/01/2018)
