Ghost Ship

The tease of gore in the very beginning leaves you hungry for more throughout the rest of this movie.
The salvage crew aboard the tug boat Arctic Warrior embark on a mission to locate and harvest the treasures of a mystery ship last seen floating adrift in the Bering Strait. At first glance Capt. Murphy seems to be in control. But is he really?
You get a spooky feeling as soon as the crew step onto the main deck and begin to explore the ship. I was curious about the ticking noise, and releaved when they sought out the old rusted clock on the wall. And although I watched Monder reach toward it, I was still startled by it's chime and jumped as it rang through the ship. The thrills continue as they each begin to have their own ghostly encounter. It's funny how no one trusts the others enough to share their experience, except Greer, and then only to be ridiculed hence validating everyone's secrecy.
Caution and fear give way to greed and the dreams of wealth, as the ship's treasures are discovered and new goals are set. I sank when the tug boat blew up! hehe.
Now the fight for blame and life is on! Murphy's demon is Guilt, and Greer shares the same. Dodge and Monder are like brothers covering eachother's back, while Epps is busy trying to shine a light of hope to keep everyone together and focused on getting off that ship alive.
You HAVE to see the Awesome release of getting off that ship!! But the ending makes you wonder; Is it really over?
