The 90s had a weird glut of sci-fi horror movies which were based on ships for some reason. I am not sure if this was some kind of weird Titanic tie in where the studio thought anything with a big boat was a sure fire hit? This is one of the better attempts. Its a non-stop action movie which has some real gore, frights, surprises and humour thrown in. Its simply impossible not to be entertained by this. The story is a basic monster hunting down the crew scenario but its done well enough that you have no idea who is next on the menu and it also holds back on the reveal of whats attacking the crew, till well around the halfway of the movie. There are a couple of well know B movie actors in this and its very much B movie fodder, some of the FX in terms of CGI look dated now but some of the models look fantastic. The movie borrows heavily from a number of major action franchises but it doesn't detract from the fun. There are plenty of entertaining death scenes and some which were quite unique and effective. Not sure how I missed this in the past but its highly recommended for a fun action flick. Just be kind on on CGI it was 1998.
