I think it was last year that I watched the original. I remember that it was shot well, but that it wasn’t that great a movie.
In this case, this movie is really bad. It doesn’t have much going for it, except for the relatively unusual story. There aren’t many “ghosts getting revenge” movies, especially nautical-themed ones.
My first complaint is a small one, but it’s something that is a serious problem now. I hate that so many horror movies use these soundtracks of no-name bands playing vaguely rock-like music. The songs are terrible, they make the movie dated, and they reek of cross-promotion.
The movie is shot competently, but that’s really all I can give it. The script is slow and plodding. There’s a lot of filler material. It was difficult to pay attention to. I found myself having a hard time finishing it off, since there wasn’t any material that was engaging.
