🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a grim hybrid of crime thriller and supernatural horror, relying on the claustrophobic setting of a ship to amplify unease. It explores themes of vengeance and guilt through a lens of maritime folklore, where past atrocities resurface in spectral form.

What lingers after viewing is the chilling atmosphere of salt-rusted metal and whispered legends, where justice arrives not from the living. A curious blend of piracy and the paranormal for genre enthusiasts. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Hiroshi Matsuno
