    OMG! DIABOLICAL!
    This movie was total rubbish. A typical 1980s flick. Over the top n moronic.

    There was no action no suspense n no tension. I would class it as a drama of sorts. Definitely not a horror.

    The acting was terrible n the characters were benign n wooden.

    The story was ridiculous n the plot was so outrageous.

    Everything about this movie was bland n so lacking in charisma.

    The ending was really really lame n so predictable.

    I can not recommend this movie at all even if you like maritime mayhem.
