Audience Reviews for Phantom Ship

Dec 09, 2011

"Phantom Ship" aka "The Mystery of the Mary Celeste" is a mystery/suspense drama that is a lesser "Mutiny on the Bounty". While it doesn't live up to the standards of "Mutiny on the Bounty", it still makes for a good mystery film. Some of the scenes are a little jumbled, especially near the end, but we always have a clue of what's going on from the opening. Another good performance, and out of the horror genre, for Bela Lugosi. If you're a fan of Lugosi or Classics, check it out.
