Ghost Ship

A derivative shocker that’s as dreadfully dimwitted as its name, Ghost Ship follows a salvage crew and their discovery of a cruise liner that’s been lost at sea for 40 years. It may sound creepy, but the ship turns out to be little more than a floating display
of horror-movie cliches. If there’s any creativity to be found it’s in the gruesome ways the characters die, including a climactic medley of murder delicately edited to a death-metal song.
