Directed by Steve Beck. Written by Mark Hanlon and John Pogue. Starring Gabriel Byrne, Julianna Margulies, Desmond Harrington, Isaiah Washington, Karl Urban, Ron Eldard, Alex Dimitriades and Emily Browning.
Plot: a salvage crew discovers a long lost passenger ship that may be haunted.
In 1962, a while ship load of people were killed. But why? In the present, a man named Ferriman (Harrington) has found the long lost ship and hires Murphy (Byrne) and his crew to go get it. Once on board though, they find that they weren’t the first people on the ship since 1962 (they find a digital watch). Some of the crew start seeing things, but when they find tons of gold on board they ignore their “willies” for a time and just worry about getting it off the ship. Alas, that doesn’t work, and they end up stranded on the ship with no way off and ghosts roaming the halls.
I thought the story was pretty cool, but DJ disagreed. I also liked the kills, the cast, the effects and the very memorable opening. DJ did agree with me on that one. It was the only part of the movie either of us remembered.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. My favorite place in the world is Atlantic City. The food, the smells, the beach - I love it all.
2. I am particularly good at crafting. Especially scrapbooking and cross-stitch.
3. I am mixed. My dad is black and my mom is white. I'm very proud of both sides of myself.
4. My favorite food is either the cheesesteak or the hoagie. Not the sub, not the grinder, the hoagie. Totally different experience.
5. I have a number of pen pals I write snail mail to. We exchange stickers and little gifts sometimes, too. I have an extensive sticker collection.
6. I just reconnected with my father after 15+ years. It's going great so far. I've missed him.
7. My brother is my best friend, hence the reason we do this together.
8. I don't have a favorite book. I like too many to have a favorite. But Paul Zindel is my favorite author. Stephen King and Jane Austen are close seconds. I know, eclectic.
9. I'm not very religious at all. I consider myself agnostic.
10. I would say that my most prized possessions are my dogs, but I don't consider them possessions. I consider them people. They are my people.
