In the underrated slice of early 2000's cheese GHOST SHIP, a group of salvagers get more than they bargained for on their latest venture because this ship is filled with spirits and a mysterious, violent past. We're breaking down the story, including what the villain is all about, the mystery of what befell the crew and passengers, as well as explaining the ending.

Say what you will about the movie as a whole, that wire slaughter scene is one of my favorite horror movie openings _ever._
It's the perfect kind of cheesy that takes itself seriously, like a baby surviving a car crash and getting raised by wolves or something
It’s one of my most vivid childhood memories 🤣
@@RandomTaemate it scared me so much when I was a kid I never watched the rest of the movie 🤣
@@TinaMarie12 15 years later I still haven't finished it 😅
it traumatized me as a kid but i'm not complaining :-)
It’s a shame this movie didn’t do well in the box office, because that opening scene with the wire was the scariest thing to me as a kid and I still remember it in my 20s lol
Yes, it is so scary.
I remember being confused about why the girl was still alive.
Bro its still freaky as fuck, sliced em all up in half frightening shit right there
Same! It was horrifying. I still get chills
I never knew what movie had this scene, and I was glad until now. Now I feel like a 6 year old again.
On the DVD, there's a special "extras" menu where you have to solve the word puzzle in different ways, and each time you're successful, it shows you a "deleted" scene that gives you the backstory of what happened onboard the Antonia Graza.
I fucking miss dvd menu special features
So what happened to Antonia garza

The food turning into maggots has truly haunted me ever since I first watched it as a kid
I have such a phobia of maggots because of this😩
Watch The Lost Boys. The original maggot food film
@KYBG Studios I totally get that. Seeing the steak crawling across the kitchen counter in Poltergeist (1982) had me off meat for awhile.
@@thewolfandbird _[shudder]_ couldn't eat plain white rice for a long while.
I think that is where my dislike for rice came from, is from seeing that!🥴😑😭
I never understood the intense hate for this movie. Is it the greatest movie ever? No. But it’s definitely fun. And the opening is legitimately one of the most memorable openings I’ve ever seen in a horror film. The cast is solid. The gore is good. There’s a decent plot twist. Maybe I’m just nostalgic since I used to watch this all the time, but I love this movie
Two Words.
Event.
Horizon.
@@ozmul5810 yes, a great movie. And...? What's it got to do with Ghost Ship?
@@doperagu8471 I think the mean when Ghost Ship opened the same time as the movie Event Horizon so it got shadowed by how popular Event Horizon was when it came out
@@HealthyObbsession got it. That would make sense if that's the case.
This and the original Nightmare on Elm Street gave me a love for this type of move genre
This movie and Thirteen Ghosts were some of the best horror movies to come out during the early 2000s. It used to scary me especially when the ghost girl explains how they all got trapped on the ship.
Both of those and the Grudge were my childhood horror films
???????
Thirteen ghosts needs a mini series of those ghost lifestyles ( pre quel )would be fun to know there lives before
@@carlosreid51 The DVD does have a bonus feature with a small bit for each ghost and how they ended up that way.
Agreed
The ending ALWAYS gave me chills because you can see her former crew mates loading the crates onto the new ocean liner even though they're dead, AND because she's completely helpless to stop that demon from massacring people again on the cruise ship... jesus..
I never noticed her crew members were carrying the gold to the new ship.
It's supposed to be them, but it's actually their stunt doubles because when they got to that ending scene the original actors didn't want to do it
@@julius_the_python I don't blame them. It's a guilty pleasure movie of mine even if people think it's trash.
I never knew this! I always thought it was just supposed to look like them. But, I literally just finished the movie and I noticed the hair of Dodge’s stunt double looking like the actor’s. This makes even more sense now.
@@julius_the_python why didn’t they want to do it? I legit never thought the people at the end looked alike to the crew actors
I love the flash back scene where we see what happens to the rest of the crew and passengers. It was a really dark situation, set to really fun music.
When Katie said "please don't close it, I haven't seen them in so long."
That really stuck with me the first time I watched this movie. Being stuck there for so long with all the other ghosts, who I would imagine are not all that friendly, would be hell
At least she is free by movie's end
@@ForrestFox626 that's true and rare, especially these days
@@SnuSnuDungeon I think most the ghost where innocent so I think most of the trapped ghost where nice to her, only ghost what where evil well where marked and where controlled by Charon character,
This movie gave me an irrational fear of wires when I was a child.
Rational*
Same bro
and cereal that turns out to be maggots
@@kleitoes *creamy 😉
that and final destination
I honestly want more of these dark castle earlier productions. Ghost ship, 13 ghosts and house on haunted hill are the best type of movies
Loved 13th ghost
Loved house on the haunted hill & all 3 really
SAME!
oo hadnt heard of the last one thanks fam
Ghost Ship and Thirteen Ghosts were a staple of my childhood. My cousin had the dvds so we watched them a lot
How ironic the ship the Graza encountered that had the gold on it was called the Lorelei. Lorelei was another name for the Siren. The Siren was a Greek mythological creature known for luring sailors to them with their hypnotic voices and sending them to their deaths. This film has everything.
yes but the Lorelei was from the german mythology
@@wtfx4073incorrect. It's Greek mythology. Jason and his men in Greek myth encountered them.
@@ESUTERURE Probably but in Germany there also was the Myth of the Lorelei. So probably in both Mythologys
I swear every great 2000s horror movie "isn't well-received" and immediately becomes a cult classic.
Might help that there are always kids who watch it, incredibly impressionable, just as I was when watching 13 Ghosts and Ghostship then forever remember them.
Yes.
Both of them
Candyman and Event Horizon would like to remind you this was also true in the 1990s.
Same. I saw it when I was 11 after release and I didn't use dental floss because the idea that a thin wire that can just cut you easily made me paranoid.
*There was a zombie film I remember watching, it was a good find, at the very end of the film, a soldier (male) and female both jump off a building and die.*
*I also remember another awesome one where there was a mentally ill girl who draws things in a hospital, then a bunch of monsters begin attacking the hospital. At the very end, she fights this dude made of darkness, as she is light and then the beginning loops*
@@patrioticcat5768 Lol I was 10 when I watched idle hands and the scene with the girl being chopped in the fan scared me so much that I still have an irrational fear of all ceiling fans.. I’m 28 😭
Another one of my childhood faves that always gave me chills😱
Chill’s voice “ I’ve got a challenge for you”
Same!!
So how’s the cheesecake doing … you say hey to the cheesecake but you don’t ask how the cheesecake feels? You don’t give it a pat on the head ? NOOOOOO JUST KEEP SAYING “HEY!” To thE CHEESECAKE .. LIKE OMG SO CRUEL
THIS MESSAGE WAS BROUGHT TO YOU BY TULLY CAR TARPS AND GLOW BONES (THE BONES THAT GLOW IN THE DARK)
Same. Haven't seen it in at least 12 years and still remember the characters somehow.
i can see why you have a check
People are way to critical on movies. It’s a slightly better than average. Enjoyable. Worth a rewatch. Not every single movie needs to be a oscar Winning masterpiece
everyone’s a critic these days lol some are warranted because movies like the latest matrix movie are just downright bad, but some don’t deserve as much hate as they get
@@matthewmccoy7437 I agree!! Some deserve it others dont
I'm not THAT old (almost 38) and when I was a teen, there usually was only one blockbuster movie coming out every month or two, not two a week. The rest was 'popcorn flicks' - you knew that those movies weren't superb, epic productions with a great story without plot holes, awesome sets and the best of the best cast. But they did what they advertised - entertaining, easy-to-watch distractions - they were no masterpieces and they didn't claim to be.
Now, I get the impression that every action 'let's blow shit up' movie wants to also be a great comedy, every romcom wants to be a Greek drama etc, they throw in everything but the kitchen sink in hopes that something sticks with the audience. Sure, that works out very well sometimes, but overall, the viewers notice that instead of focusing on what the movie is supposed to be, it's just a mix of half-assed ideas that aren't thought through.
@@ichmeiner4531 I agree with you . I’m 31 I remember those times. Every movie now a days is trying to be a mega blockbuster that tries to set up a larger universe to create spin offs. It’s also the consumers who are impossible to please. Literally think every movie sucks!
A lot of the movies in my DVD collection have not won any oscars and I still watch them because they're fun and fascinating.
Fun Fact - Murphy's story about the Marie Celeste is actually true, Unsolved Mysteries did an entire piece on it years ago. The most common / well-known theory is that the crew were in a lifeboat, trailing the main ship due to a build up of fumes in the hull, (makes sense in context) and somehow lost the rope line that connected the two boats.
There's problems with that theory as well. The one I think makes the most sense is that the crew who salvaged her had actually committed piracy and killed the crew to get the reward for salvaging her.
The working theory is that the captain was caught in a storm and thought the ship was taking on water. He grabbed his family and crew into the lifeboat to head to nearby land.
A lot people seem to remember Ghost Ship as "is that the movie where all those people get sliced into pieces by a wire at the very beginning?". I am one of those people.
Yes i had the VHS when i was little and watched it a bunch but now in my 20s i can only remember the opening scene and the part where they though the maggots were rice
Thankfully as a kid that scene never stuck with me, however, Ms. Pinup and the hook, that was a bad way to go...
I remember being five and seeing a horrific scene appearing on the screen of a woman being hanged by the hook 😭 I couldn't sleep for days and had to hug my mom every night for insurance that I'm safe
Feel you 😆
ME TOO!!😝
VvvvvV 🧛♀️⚰
My friends and I saw this one in the theater. The minute that pink 'Ghost Ship' title came up with the lounge music playing in the background we looked at each other like, "Hoo boy, *this* one's gonna be real lame." A few minutes later, though, after the opening scene, we sat there in shock, trying to process what we'd just witnessed. I like to think the title screen with its "Love Boat" feel and pink color and cheesy music playing were deliberate choices to lull the audience into a false sense of security, so when that scene *does* happen it's all-the-more impactful.
Lol, I felt the same. Just like the opening of Lemony Skicket's ASOUE, both openings tricked the fuck outta me, but was super surprised at this movie. Always loved it, I remember ordering it on ppv in likee 2003. Loved Emily Browning ever since.
I still feel that scene would have been so much more impactful if we hadn't seen that someone was about to cause something. Sure we didn't know "exactly" what was going to happen but it was blatantly clear everyone was about to die and probably not in a pleasant way. I think a better way of going about it would have been for the scene to occur without context that someone is doing something and then either showed a shadow walk away from the cable machinery right before the scene change or do a cut later in the film showing the scene as is present in the film in a flashback. I think the shock would have hit a lot harder if, yes we knew something bad was about to happen but had no real idea it was going to be quite as over the top as was being implied from the start.
Dang I wish i was able to see this in theatres lol I was only 4 years old lmao, but when I saw this movie I have always loved it especially the opening scene
This. Exactly this.
Same
Crazy how all these years I never once pondered how Katie was “tackled” in her ghost form
Because the demon guy did it
Demon guy did it. He’s neither dead or alive. So I guess he can interact with ghosts
It was jack bc he was a demon who keeps evil souls and trapped souls on the boat
This and Thirteen Ghosts have always been my favorite horror movies.
The scene with the maggots in the food has stuck with me to this day, many years after first seeing it.
Ever seen adudition??
THIS AND 13 GHOST ARE MY FAV TOO
my faves too -
I guess because since both of them were directed by the same person, STEVE BECK!😁😀🙃😉
This movie, Poseidon, and Titanic is why I’ll never get on a cruise ship.
Man if you think these movies are scary, DON'T watch 'Triangle'!
Smart person go to space instead who have a better chance with a hot alien female / male [ I ain't judging on what ya like ] or get killed by a stupid error
Never ever! 🤣
What about Speed 2 Cruise Control?
Try a real and still pretty recent horror story. MS Estonia. It will probably be made into a movie some day, although it's good nobody has yet, it has been 27 years but there are of course still enough people who lost family and friends when it sank. I still travel by ship, or the big ferries of the Baltic - they pretty much function as cruise ships in addition to being ferries, a lot of the profit for them is from people who go on these day-long mini cruises, but they are also the cheapest way to cross the sea if you want to visit some of the neighboring countries - but after Estonia sank I have never booked a cabin below the decks. I would not be able to sleep in one. If possible I get one on the same deck where the lifeboats are, and as close to a door to the deck as possible.
Of course, if it was filmed as it happened, or the way the movies about Titanic have been, it would be a catastrophe movie, not a horror movie. But if you made a fictionalized version with ghosts, demons, and things happening below the decks and out of sight of most of the passengers... ending with people getting trapped in their cabins and the crowded corridors while most of the ones who at least got off the ship die in the freezing cold water, as the ships nearby try to save them but have a hell of a hard time finding anybody because there was a storm. I didn't know anybody who was lost but I still had freaking nightmares about it for some years after it happened.
I never realized it was the same director for this and 13 Ghosts, definitely explains why I enjoy both of them
I LOVED 13 Ghosts lol.
Same
One of the producers worked on the matrix movies
When I was little, I found a copy of this movie hidden at the top of my family's entertainment storage closet (was full of movies, VHS tapes, old DVD/VHS players, video games, game consoles, etc). I honestly thought it would just be a simple movie about exploring an abandoned ship and the story of the ship. With the opening scene, I realized I was pleasantly mistaken. This movie kinda started my love for horror and gore, now my favorite genre of entertainment, which I couldn't be any more thankful for. I love this movie so much.
Seeing The opening scene and the maggot scene as a kid soldered this movie into my brain. I owe this movie as being one of my foundation for my love for horror.
Why nobody talks about the ending when the ship is shinking and the ghost are free? Honestly, it's really beautiful scene i've seen so far from a horror movie
The musical score that accompanied this scene is also incredibly beautiful and haunting.
Ghost Buster are tracking the shil
I agree Op. The spirits look like wisp floating through the forest at night.
I agree
I knew they never made movies like this anymore when that scene came across.
It stuck out like a sore thumb on how "out of the blue/magical" that scene of the movie was.
5 stars, I like older films
Person who tackled Katie was most likely the soul taker. He seems to only be able to manipulate people who have sinned, so that may be why some of the ghosts can manipulate whether or not they can be touched and why Katie only appears to the one “who is without sin” if that’s even really possible.
you would have it correct. she's an innocent so the soul taker/ferryman doesn't have control over her. She's essentially a stowaway stuck along for the ride. So Katie is either tackled by the soul taker/ferryman or one of the ghosts he has control over.
@@Quandry1 I've seen the movie so many times growing up it always looked like someone dress like the ferryman to me, so I always assumed it was him. Especially since the movie never really made any specific effort to show he was somewhere else. Not that it would really matter with his super natural powers and what not.
ok
@@Kitten2642 I mostly just left it kind of undefined because he isn't accounted for as you said. But at the same time since the other ghosts are bound to his wishes I couldn't rule them out either.
IF she hung herself, don't know if she did, how could she be without sin, suicide is supposedly a sin.
There's a scene that is really easy to miss, but when the little girl is warning the woman, she gets pushed off the ship by the soul collector. There are many hints that are possibly missed about him being the villain.
Small correction: Jack actually introduces himself by his full name - Jack Ferriman - and Murphy actually calls him over by his last name in the same scene, so it's mentioned before the ending with Dodge. Just a little nitpick. ETA: The glam titles are because it's an Italian cruise ship, aka "floating art palaces."
What’s ETA here? Usually it means “estimated time of arrival”..
@@lianeli5406 Edited to Add. ^^
I always assumed the crew’s sins were the deadly sins. Murphy-Gluttony for his alcoholism, Greer-Lust for attempting to cheat, Santos-Sloth because he never seemed to do anything urgently, Munder- Greed, Dodge-Envy because he feels threatened by this new guy who’s seemingly after Epps and because he’s belittled him, and the last two left are Jack Ferriman who is obviously Pride (pride is supposedly the one sin that separates the soul from grace, which explains how he became a literal ferryman because he spent his life being a sinner, and has fallen from grace) and Epps, who seems like she could become Wrath with her final scream from the ambulance….
I love this movie, and yet hardly anyone’s seen it!
That is a really awesome take! I love this movie (I've seen it many many times over the years😂). That totally makes sense, I have NEVER looked at it that way!! About to go watch it again!🤣👍🏼
Bro everyone’s seen it lmaoooo
i’ve actually never seen this and alot of others havent, relax mr.ive seen literally every single movie
Great Analogy!!! 🚢👻💨
Damn this is a really awesome analogy, I remember as a kid trying to figure out what each one represented as a sin and you explained it all perfectly. I can totally see it.👍
Thanks for what you do bro. I'm an Army combat veteran and due to my PTSD, I can't do jump scares, but your channel allows me to enjoy the story. Never change.
Jump scares suck anyway
I just can't watch horror movies because they depress me too much. I generally don't like watching people who don't deserve what is happening to them suffering.
Thank you for your service sir.
@@ZaydinTTV Some of them deserve what happens to them.
I have ptsd as well and I love this channel for the same reason. I still want to know what happens and not miss out
I always loved this movie as a modern take on a pirate's tale! Elements from the flying Dutchman, cursed gold, crewmen lost at sea, Davy Jones! All culminated together into one movie is very fun!
I hate how much I love this movie. That opening is the single best horror movie opening ever. And the soundtrack is one I feel in my soul
The little girl "Katie" is played by Emily Browning of Sucker Punch & American Gods. 🔥❤🔥
She was also in the lemoney snicket movie, I know I butchered his name but 🤣
RIP American Gods
Emily did so good playing kaitie
She is dead in this and american gods?
@@FurryVixenAbbey a series of unfortunate events
That part where they ate the maggots was so nasty and disturbing
First
2nd
It's nice to see you gat the attention you deserve, practically nothing.
I've never been the same since seeing that scene x.x
@@iHaveTheDocuments damn why tho 😭😭
I always thought that upper management part was referencing Davy Jones or the flying Dutchman. Hense the guys name is ferryman like the ferry man of souls. Either way I really enjoyed this movie. Deffinently one of my ghostly favs.
This movie was so underrated , with a sinister backstory that nightmares are made Of just a really dope movie one of my favorites.
Plus the implication that the little girl hung herself or was corrorsed into doing that and she was only 8 years old at the time. That part made me go WTF
Literally everyone I've met who has seen the film loves it, I surprised to hear it wasn't well received.
I mean, that ending with "Not falling" by Mudvayne playing, gave me chills as a kid
like the mas murder scene was so good.
I remember the cinema's giant ship bow made from cardboard with a 3D skull also layered out of cardboard coming out of the split bow of the ship. It was amazing. Too bad they don't do those things anymore. Movie promotions are mostly online these days.
@@mr.mischiefiknowyourpasswo8224 that sounds cool.
The fictional Antonia Graza was based off a real-life Italian ocean liner, the Andrea Doria, which, 65 years ago to this day, was involved in a collision with the Swedish liner Stockholm in thick fog, and sank ten hours later, with its final plunge caught on camera. So I have to say, that was some unintentionally great timing on this video.
Damn son thats chilling and cool
Who said it was unintentional
@@bs9664 yo mama
@@bs9664 Everyone.
not me thinking antonio garza 💀
Fun fact: The Antonio Graza's design was based on the Andrea Doria, an Italian luxury liner that sank in July 1956.
Interesting fact
I would have loved a sequel to this movie. Can’t believe it wasn’t received well.
Thirteen ghosts and ghost ship actually defined my definition of horror as a kid
Not only was that one of my favorite "horror" movies at the time, Mudvayne's "Not Falling" at the ending solidified it as a totally badass movie for me.
Lol Right? Say what you will about early 2000's horror flicks alot of them had some great soundtracks! 🤘
Hell yeah...another is Red Clover that has the ending theme Johnny Jump Up by Icecream Fire.
I know this comment is 7 months old but I just heard on the radio the other day that Mudvayne is it going to be touring which is huge because I don't know if you know that they split up and the lead singers in a band called hell yeah. When I was a kid for Halloween I was the lead singer in my brother was the bass player
I personally LOVE this movie! I love the ending with the music sequence explaining everything that happened. One of my faves!!!
I remember when this movie came out. I was in high school, and working in a Cinemark movie theater. Now I'm 37 years old, God time flies.
When I was a kid, I got in a farm accident and was bed ridden for a few weeks. My brother got me a "Horror Movie Pack" that consisted of Ghost Ship, House on Haunted Hill (Remake), 13th Ghost, House of Wax and Gothica. That pack got me into horror movies in a big way, and look back on most of those movies fondly (looking at you, Gothica).
BRUH whenever I went over to my friend's house we ALWAYS watched House of Wax
What was the accident?
Gothika
Good choices and Gothika is just amazing
Can't forget 'the haunting' that should've been included in that pack lol
No mention that the little girl is a young Emily Browning? She's so underrated!
Yep, she also sings a cover of Sweet Dreams, which is one of my favorite songs.
@@lunarose698 The soundtrack of that movie, plus her amazing acting, makes up for the mediocre everything else.
This movie introduced me to her, and is where I fell in love with her as an actress. She's so pretty. (&Yes, I kno she was like 13, but she is older than me.)
Thank you for pointing that out! I was trying to figure out why she looked so familiar.
@@Khaleesi_Jack Hey as long as you were close in age to her at the time lol
I've been going through some hard times the past few months.....and it's so nice to take my mind off of things and watch you review movies and their endings! Thanks man
Dark Angel, I am very sorry that you have been going through hard times. I will Pray for everything to be good for you 🙏🏿🌈 Things will get better, I promise you!!
I do think that either "Jack Ferryman" was Charon or a spirit who has to essencially take over due to the sheer number of people who exist now in the world, who happened to either die from the greed or actions he displayed in life and now suffer in his own sort of hell for it, and can't actually hurt anyone until they give into their own sins. Because you'll notice early on in the movie, he's polite, kind and a nice guy. It's not until the crew start becoming greedy with the gold, or giving into lust or drinking which are pretty big no no's in almost every major civilization morality wise did shit really hit the fan. He even states in the movie that he only punishes the sinners and he can't corrupt the young girl because while dead, she didn't actually do anything. I do think that in the end, Epps wouldn't have actually died. If you watch, he's still trying to corrupt her into doing something bad so he can kill and punish her soul but she's all, naw fam. You could say that it's unfair that Jack tricking people into their vices onboard the ship is evil but I mean, life is hardly fair. I don't even think the gold is real, I think it's more of like gold plated trickery to bring out the greed which lead to their tiny ship exploding. If they left the gold on the big ship, everyone might have survived. But hey, that's just a theory. A film th... wait wait, wrong channel.
This and 13 ghosts were the scariest movies in my childhood
Haha I was gonna say, both of these movies featured during my childhood! It's cool to see foundflix covering them.
Yo literally, this shit was so scary, my brother shouldn’t of been letting me watch this at 6 years old 😂😂
Though not scary to me, this comment is funny to me ONLY because I would always watch these two movies back to back and I don't know why. Sometimes I would throw in House on Haunted Hill, but Ghost Ship and 13 Ghosts were my favorite movies as a kid.
Same!
There was this 80s or early 90s movie where these women would turn into Werecats.
I can't for the life of me remember what it's called but I just remember watching it with my mum and siblings on the HBO Classics channel 😂 that was the last horror movie to scare me.
I loved both 13 Ghosts and Ghost Ship. They were fun films that looked beautiful while not taking themselves too seriously.
Me too!!
Love or hate this movie that opening scene is such an incredible feat of special fx and makeup. The team on this one was gifted.
This is one of my all time favorite scary/horror films! It’s lore has always been so interesting to me and the hard rock music at the end of late 90’s early 20’s films has always just been a huge favorite of mine. No idea why but, it just scratches an itch in me. This was also the movie that got me into Mudvayne at a young age! So good.
You missed the best part of the end, the guys hauling the gold onto the boat were her former crew. I always loved that last little bit, I’m guessing since they were so fresh he was able to keep them with him.
How the hell did I miss that after all the times I have watched this movie! Wow! Thanks
Yes that part was left out. I kept waiting for him to comment on that part . This is one of my favorite parts at the end. I loved the movie
That part is so important! I cant believe he just walked us through the entire movie, yet skipped the very very end!!
holy crap, how did i miss that after watching this movie as many times as i have? they all look slightly different (mostly hairstyles, greer being the exception with a shaved face because he keeps his head shaved in the first place). I had to go and put the movie on and skip to the end just to verify, and now im kicking myself for not noticing this sooner.
I had to rewatch the ending, did catch it, thanks
This should have been the Man of Medan game that we all wanted to play in VR.
whoa i have the same expectation for that game to be like this movie
@@milkdrinker117 it is not. 😔
Ditto
It would've been cool but sadly it was not
Yeah I was pretty excited for that game but it turned out to be ass in a way in my opinion. I get that leaving things up to interpretation is cool but the M night style of "lul ur entire experience was probz fake" is played out and doesn't respect the readers/players time
I found this film super enjoyable and was full of intrigue . I also loved the bonus features. But I will agree it feels like 13 ghosts .
I have always loved this movie and the wire scene was one of the most shocking things I had seen at the time and it is still one of my favorite movies and openings. Thank you for doing an ending explained on this movie.
That scene with the wire was perpetuated in my mind lol Unforgettable.
The nods to Charon are pretty big, Charon requires payment to cross the river Styx and because of that his attachment to the gold is pretty big
Yep. That's why it used to be a custom to put coins on the eyes of the dead.
My only thing is Charon’s not really an “evil” guy, he’s just a dude doing his job. He never needed to search out those to cross the river because they’d come eventually no matter what
@@wajmgirl that and his boss is the (generally) even-tempered Hades. It generally takes a _lot_ to get on Hades's bad side.
I love this SO MUCH. Please report every movie just like this, beginning to end so I can keep up all the way through!
Ghost Ship kind of reminded me of a movie called Death Ship(1980)starring Richard Crenna and George Kennedy. It is worth a look.
The beginning of the film was a nice touch with the title in pink and Francesca singing and asking everyone to dance before the true horror begins. The song Francesca sings was in another film called Flight Of The Phoenix with Jimmy Stewart, in a hallucinatory sequence in that film.
Emily Browning was cute as Katie, but it was tragic that she saw the mass murder going on all over the ship before she gets murdered.
The ballroom transformation was pretty cool.
I enjoyed Ghost Ship. Since this film, there was another film like it that was filmed a few years later that was shown on Showtime or Cinemax about an ocean liner that disappeared and reappearing years later.
Ghost ship wasn't a terrible movie, i agree. It was an interesting watch.
Try "Noroi". It's a japanese found-footage style movie that's almost forgotten but free on YT. It's quite unsettling and doesn't do jumpscares.
Aaaaaa
Thanks!
Sounds right up my alley. Will be bookmarking that to check out later.
About to watch it thank you.
Not scary at all.
The opening is arguably the best part of this movie (and one of the best horror movie openings of all time). Overall, the film is a bit of a trainwreck, but it's an enjoyable trainwreck. Definitely one to watch if you just want a fun horror flick.
You mean shipwreck?
Scream did a great intro scene. They apparently tricked the audiences into thinking Drew Barrymore was the main character of the movie but nope, she's actually just the third person to die in the story.
I got my first dvd player at like 13 and this was one of the first movies I bought lol. It was this and thirteen ghosts together. I’ve been a horror fan all my life and this movie is still on the top as one of my favorites. I love ships so that’s probably a big reason but still lol
Finally, was waiting for your review on this one for a looong time
I watched this as a kid, not once did I ever think this was an ending that needed explaining
Lol same here just too see what needs explaining
he didnt even explain the ending correctly.... The people loading the gold were the crewmates...
some of us out here are horror fans but like to vaguely know whats coming and check for volume of gore content before decideing to watch a film lmao
@@JoeyMartzstunt doubles Isaiah Washington said he was already filming romeo must die to the grave with singer actress Aaliyah & dmx & jet li
Maybe the necklace went through Katie to prove that she is a ghost. Epps was still in disbelief, so Katie probably did it to prove she’s a ghost.
I thought that too. Maybe they can control their form.
Love to see you do train to busan! Thanks for another banger!!
mudvayne still a great band. Was super excited when the song started playing watching this. I think that's the reason I enjoy this movie so much.
I remember watching this movie with my dad who asked me who the band was at the end. He only listens to jazz and old r&b, but enjoyed the Mudvayne song at the end. I was happy to tell him who the band was…
@@Blakmagic88 Your dad sounds cool! My dad & I agree on just about everything yet he HATES Mudvayne lol.
@@sudmuck Haha…he may have no great love for rock and metal but he’s a drummer so he can appreciate good musicianship.
Time and time again, whenever there are gold bars in movies, the cast throw them about like the lightweight props that they are.
Holy crap lol. I knew gold was heavy but I just googled it and a gold bar weighs 27lbs!
And would be worth $721,000
@@kristyw89 it also depends on the bar, there are Good Delivery bars (12.4 kilograms), kilobars (1000 grams), 100 gram bars, 10 gram bars, and that's just the common metric sizes...
Ghost Ship and House on Haunted Hill are my favorite Dark Castle movies growing up.
Glad you mentioned "House on Haunted Hill;" it's another one that I enjoyed. That piano wire scene is burned in my mind! 😳
Sweet dreams are made of these scene made that movie for me.
SPOILER
The cgi smoke monster killed it for me. The whole movie was mysterious and disturbing. Then crappy cgi monster. I was actually comforted by such silly faketitude. Turned the movie into a comedy.
MINE TOO!❤️
This was a really fun video , Thank You ! Just subscribed , hope you have a great/safe week !
Glad you liked this. I always did, so it's good to catch a video by someone that actually enjoyed it.
To add the cherry on the sundae, the song at the ending credits is “Not Falling” by Mudvayne. 👻 🚢
Yes!!! One of the reasons I checked this movie out to begin with. I was at one of their concerts & they mentioned the movie.
It's also earlier in the movie when the captain is jamming out on the helm.😎
I came here to comment this. I got into mudvayne because of this movie.
I was literally just thinking about that
Fuck ya awsome song I quite enjoyed the movie as well
Ghost ship was the first “horror/suspense” movie I watch when I came to America. It sparked my love of horror films. It has a special place in my heart.
So, are we to take it that the "bad entity" that katie spoke of was jack? Also, see now the idea of followup stories where she thwarts his evil soul claiming plans just sounds fun lol
I remember watching thi s movie as a kid on old sci-fi when they showed good movies and shows and this movie was awesome and still is! 👏
"Sea Evil"
Now that's just an instant 10/10 right there.
I’m just waiting at this point for Foundflix to do an Ending Explained for Old
Caught both these back to back when I was maybe 7 and up way too late. First horror movies I saw and had nightmares for months but amazing all round and holds a ton of nostalgia
This was actually a really good film. Made you think of the seven deadly sins. The movie was underrated for it was up against movies that came out that same time.
The cast did a great job. The special effects team did an amazing job without using a lot of CGI. Too many movies now have loads of CGI, which takes a lot out from from real movie magic, which now would be called CGI magic. I like older horror movies from 2015 and back, without a lot of CGI.
I love how they talk about the Mary Celeste without naming her by name (probably the most famous ghost ship)
He does name her. Led me to research the legend.
I didn't realize how underrated this movie was. All my friends love it.
What adds a layer of fear to it all is that since he can shapeshift, he can just change his appearance if she or any other survivors ever go looking for him. He could basically keep going forever. His motives are unclear however. Was he after the gold or trying to take more souls? Because if he wanted more souls, he could have just started over on a new boat. He'd have access to way more people in a new ship, rather than an old salvage ship. And if he needed to get the gold back for some reason, then why risk it by killing them off, and blowing up their boat and all that? Why not just get them to salvage it for him, and maybe kill them all after it was done? Was there like a minimum of souls he HAD to have on that boat? Since it looked like he's done it before, as that's what the modern watch they found there implied. It might have been mentioned, I don't remember, but I'm confused by his motive.
It seems he’s specifically tied to that ship and uses the gold as a means to lure people onto the ship and kill for it. Thus rinse and repeat until that ship collects enough souls for him to send it up to management. Appears he has to collect a certain amount on the ship before he can be done with the job. So he continuously charters salvagers over and over to the ship to collect their souls knowing they’ll kill each other for the gold he leads them to on the ship.
I also think he specifically lured them to the ship in order to repair it as well, it's mentioned that the ship was hit by something and slowly sinking, and he gets angry at one point and screams something about needing them to repair it
Between Mudvayne being on the soundtrack, ghosts, horror, and ships I was in love! Oh nostalgia.
He really skipped the part where the guys bringing the gold onto the ship turn into her crewmates. Guess showing he still has their souls.
or he still has all the souls of the marked
Yeah the guys bring it up at the end are her old crew.
Not true, they are different people
Agreed. Watched the ending 5 times. Only threefold them are there not all.
He has to repeat the collection as he lost a lot of the souls from the Antonia Graza.
The split kill was so popular in 13 Ghosts, they made the first kill in this movie out of that.
As well as in CUBE and Final Destination 2
@@Tahokmusic cube did it best tho.
The beginning was amazing. And it scared the 💩💩out of me.
That opening was one of the most memorable in any horror movie I've ever seen. Someone getting killed? Yeah, sure, that's to be expected at the start of a horror movie. A HUNDRED people getting killed? By being CUT IN HALF?? On a classy Italian luxury cruise liner? It covers so many disparate angles, but now that FF has mentioned the psychological element of the original script, yeah, it DEFINITELY has a Shining vibe to it, and it worked brilliantly. It's such a shame it sort of devolved into a generic 'kill-em-all' horror schlock movie later... I remember being disappointed by the reveal that Jack was a demon. It felt so hokey. But, knowing that he was meant to represent Charon, that's briliant. This could've been such a good movie if there was a bit more buildup for that.
Also that boxart is badass and ain't nobody going to tell me otherwise. Everytime I hear the phrase 'ghost ship' to this day, that's the first thing I think of: that dark, towering skull on the prow of the Antonia Garza (which is an obvious reference to the Andrea Doria, and the ship nerd in me loves that). Had a big, nightmare-inducing poster of it on the wall as a kid and everything.
What’s Charon?
@@lianeli5406 The ferryman of the River Styx. Guy who guided dead souls to Hades in ancient Greece.
Note that Hades wasn't a Devil analogue to the ancient Greeks. He was more like a big judge that kept the realm of the dead in some sort of working order, despite not particularly wanting the job.
The beginning scene is one of the most memorable opening scenes ever
“Jack takes her hand, marking it with a symbol on the wrist.” Uhh, that’s her palm.
My mother is a classic rocker Ghost Ship (some 20years ago) introduced me to heavy metal and horror. Still to this day love a good scary movie and heavy metal (most times).
I adore the ballroom scene where it builds itself back pieces by pieces.
Man screw this movie, legit scared the shit outta me as a kid.
Same here! I didn't even make it through the beginning scene
Same here...that movie was f'd up
I used the logic that since I am not on a boat, I am safe.
@@honbunn ...but I loved watching the beginning when I was a little 9/10-year-old. That was the second-best part!
@@onijester56 I was 4/5 when I saw thinking I was old enough to watch since my parents said no. Turns out they were right 😂
I remember seeing this at Blockbuster. Fuck I'm old.
I'm old too. We are old👴🧓
Hell, I saw it in the theater when it first came out, lol.
I was 40 when it came out.
I’m old too. Oh well lol
You all got some freak names more vulgar than Xbox live in the 2000's
I saw the opening to this when i was 6 and have been looking for it ever since and this just so happens to pop up on my feed.
I watched this film as a kid due to my parent's absence because of some kind of holiday.
I haven't seen it all since I fell asleep but DAMN the nightmares this movie gave me. And thanks to my vivid imagination I kept thinking of it all the time so I was afraid to sleep. Same kind of scare I had when my elder brother played Resident Evil 3. Both of it eventually just faded away in time but these pieces of (")art(") did scarred my psyche. So even as an adult now I am genuinly creeped out by this film.
This movie and "A house on a haunted hill" or some mix of those words always were some of my favourite horror movies. The writing isnt great but they *actually* do horror decently well.
Ooh what's "A House o a Haunted Hill" about?
@@tropetrinitytrilogy8533 Easily one of the better Haunted insaine asylum movies I've seen.
Basically a rich guy gets his kicks scaring the shit out of people but actual demons and demonic rituals and shit happen and people die in pretty horrid ways. Id reccomend watching it.
@@John.McMillan it sounds fun! I'll check it out.
@@tropetrinitytrilogy8533 Make sure you distinguish it's the 1999 version. There was a version made with Vincent Price too in the 50s which is pretty different. The '99 version used to terrify me as a kid haha
This and 13 Ghosts were my jam in high school.
Your emoji is terrifying as hell! is that a real rabbit?or no it's not real
Is that a rabbit or a rat?
@@jennifern2403 It's a rabbit. A very hungry rabbit.
love it. such an underrated movie.
The ending scene with his new crew loading the ship while mudvayne plays in the background is a vibe.
