What: Ghost Ship
Where: @ home - recorded off cable
Why: I've wanted to see it
I remember wanting to see this movie when it came out (2003?), but I heard it was just awful - almost the worst movie ever made.
You know what - it wasn't half bad. I like my horror movies to be creepy and no questions left unanswered. Normally there is a bad guy, and you don't understand why he's bad, and why he feels the need to kill people. Thankfully, a little girl ghost helps us see the entire back story via flashback. I love it!!!
The opening scene of this movie was pretty darn sweet. It's 1962 on a luxury cruise ship. Everybody is gathered together, dancing the night away. All of a sudden, a cable snaps and goes hurling thru the passengers. And I mean that literally - THRU the passengers.
Fast forward 50 years, a ship of scavengers finds the cruise ship and plans to tow her back to shore. They find a little girl ghost onboard. Then things start to go horribly, horribly wrong.
All in all, I say it's a worthy horror movie. Even the ending was kind-of unique.
If you like horror (it wasn't even very scary), then I recommend it.

I LOVE this movie! You're right...it was apparently hated by many, but that opening scene was definitely one to rival other openings!
I recommend to EVERYBODY to watch at least the first 5 minutes of this movie!
