Death Ship Plot:
It's Captain Ashland's last voyage with the ship, when his ship
mysteriously start taking in water and sinks, a few survivors has
to rescue themselves onto an old abandoned German ship. Everything
on the ship seems to be in function, so they decide to stay until
the rescue team gets there... unfortunately, the ship has other
plans than for them to get rescued.
Its the same friggin Movie!!
I think they tried to pull a fast one. The movie excutives must have thought the movie crowd was going to be young, so they would not know about the first moive in 1980.
That type of mindless movie promotion, makes me sick!
Side Note: If you look at the old 1980 Death Ship moive poster it has the New working title Ghost Ship in it. They didnt even try to change the movie poster.
What a waste of good money.
