Val Lewton (The Cat People, The Body Snatcher) directed this movie in 1943. It a mystery set on a ship. I have not watched the more modern movies of the same name, but I think those version had ghosts in them. There are some allusions to ghost ship in this movie, but it does not fit real well in this case. There were some great moments in this movie, such as the anchor scene.
I liked that fact that the movie still had horses and carriages in it, and that ship travel was still so important. It was a very nice movie to DVD transfer.
I will rate it 2.5/5 acorns.
