Viewing Notes
Death Ship starts out a little like Terror Train, with a ship full of people partying in masks but then we’re introduced to George Kennedy’s grumpiest Captain of a ship ever. After a little character introductions the ship is rammed by an old cargo ship and we end up with the protagonists in a floating box and they end up on the ship that rammed them. This ship ends up offing them and possessing the captain and turns out to be an old Nazi ship haunted by never seen ghosts that tortured people and now needs blood.
Ghost Ship is entertaining in a group and we had a laugh about how the little kid always had to pee, the candy that turned a lady into poo-face, and some of the kills. George Kennedy was great, though I wish the end paid off better. Fun flick. Not amazing but a good drink a beer and watch with people deal.
