A passenger ship, on her way to the scrap yard is pushed to her limits by the new owners to save on the dismantling fees. A tidal wave hits her, flipping her over so that all the internal rooms are upside down. A priest takes a mixed band of survivors on a journey through the bowels of the ship in an attempt to survive.



One of my faves. This one isn't as scary as the Towering Inferno, nor is it as wild as Earthquake, but it is fun and very well executed. It didn't need the remake imo. :mhmok:


also all the photos at the bottom of the poster look like emoticons more than part of the poster

rewatched this and it's still amazing and suprisingly made with a low budget

I love this movie, but I still think the Towering Inferno beats this as far as 70's disaster films go.

I agree!

The Towering Inferno is so suspenseful, and it really gets me nervous everytime I watch it. I absolutely love The Towering Inferno

I've only seen the remake. All I remember of it is that the special effects were awesome, which probably says a lot about the rest of the film.
