DeRay Davis, Kenneth Welsh, Maggie Grace

A thick fog enshrouds a coastal town. The fog is reminiscent of one 100 years earlier that wrecked a ship and drowned the seamen aboard. Sure enough, the sailors are back and out to kill whomever they...( read more  read more... ) find.

    Superman fights a ghostly gang of old sailors whose backstory is complete bullshit and in reality were a group of murdering backstabbing assholes. Horrible acting all-around. The story makes very little sense, but with the deleted full flashback scene I finally understood it and ...( read more)would give this movie a full star-and-a-half extra if they would've left it in. But they cut it. This movie sucks so bad not even Selma Blair is worth a shit in it.

    An extremelly failed attempt to scare people. First of all, I hate these remakes. That just proves that the filmmakers have nothing original to show you. Second, why did they do a remake of a very poor "classic". The original was just as stupid and non-scary as this one. But it ...( read more)didn't suck ass...

    The acting is awful, there's no tension in the film and it just bores the hell out of me. Avoid.

    didnt like the ending but it was a good start

    What a stupid ass movie. It's not even bad enough to be good. Incredibly bad plot, hopelessly dumb. Not in the least bit eerie, which I am presuming was the intention. Technically it does have some merit, the cinematography is not too bad.

    An island off the Oregon coast is the setting for this salty yarn of ghosts, lepers, betrayal, vengeance, and teen angst. A fog-enshrouded schooner from 1865 returns from the bottom of the sea to wreak vengeance on the locals of the island, and it's up to local DJ Stevie Wayne (S...( read more)elma Blair), her charter-boat-captain lover, Nick (Tom Welling, from TV's SMALLVILLE), and his wayward girlfriend, Elizabeth (Maggie Grace, from TV's LOST), to save the day. All three are related to the town's founding fathers, with whom the shipbound ghosts have an ancient score to settle. What that score is no one seems to know, but they need to find out, fast.

    this is a remake..i didnt see the original but going by this one i wasnt that impressed,ended up watching half of the movie and "switching off"

    twas quite a complicated movie and had quite a good storyline but it was bad at the end because it just finished suddenly.
    It looked like they ran out of money so they just finished it as soon as they could.
