Synopsis
Death Ship (1980) is a maritime horror film you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Alvin Rakoff, this Canadian-British production stars George Kennedy and Richard Crenna as survivors of a collision at sea. A black freighter slides out of the fog and rams their cruise liner.
The handful left alive climb aboard the vessel that struck them. There is no crew. Hatches seal on their own, winches turn with no hands at the controls, and the radio crackles with orders in German. Slowly the truth surfaces: this is a wartime prison ship that has drifted for decades, drawing sailors in and picking them off one by one.
Grimy, low-budget and oddly hypnotic, it belongs to that late-1970s wave of haunted-machine horror. Worth a look if you like a single claustrophobic setting and evil that never bothers to explain itself. Stream Death Ship (1980) online on iFILM.
