Death Ship

Adventure, Horror, Mystery, Thriller · 1980R

Eight people float together in a glassy sea, surrounded by the blackness of the night, survivors of the sudden sinking of a cruise ship. Exhausted after many hours in the water, they have given up hope of rescue. A ship appears, looming over them in the mist. They manage to climb aboard by means of a ladder which drops down to receive them. But the ship is found to be derelict, with no living soul aboard. For the survivors there is no place of safety on the vessel. Because, to their horror, they discover that the ship is a killer. There is no escape from the awful nightmare which builds in increasing terror as the "Blood Star" speeds ahead in the teeth of a rising storm.
