This is a clever
horror film that’s not ruined by figuring out what’s going on. Melissa George
gives a dependable and intense performance as a woman on a sailing voyage with
a friend and three other vacationers only to get stuck in the Bermuda Triangle.
The filmmakers never says it’s the Bermuda Triangle so maybe that’s not true
but regardless they get stuck and things go really wrong when they board a
mysterious cruise ship without any passengers. The concept of the story could have back fired
but the writers understood what they were doing from the beginning and
that’s why I loved this film. Grade: A-
Spoiler Alert: My favorite image has to be when a dying Emma Lung crawls away from George onto a deck of corpses of herself, all at various degrees of decomposition. This isn't really a scary film, but it's this scene alone that echoes a sense of doom that only comes from the best of horror.
