20. Abyssal Attack (1998)
This filmmaker's science fiction thriller chronicles a group of scene-stealing supporting players playing mercenaries employed to sink the cruise ship a fictional ship. However a giant mutant octopus has beaten them to it! Among the likely victims are Famke Janssen as a gem smuggler.
19. 1900's Tale (1998)
A baby, deserted on the transatlantic liner SS Virginian, matures to be a talented keyboardist (Tim Roth) who refuses to leave the vessel. The climax of the director's whimsical hokum is Roth battling a keyboard contest with Jelly Roll Morton, arguably inaccurately depicted as a overconfident individual.
18. Waterworld (1995)
The main star portrays a fighter-inspired drifter with mutated appendages and a enhanced trimaran in this big-budget science fiction adventure, taking place in a distant time where melting polar ice-caps have submerged the Earth. The entire population is hunting for mythical Dryland while fending off the villain and his gang of chain-smoking marauders.
17. The Titanic (1997)
A significant portion of love story development between a posh chick (the actress) and an itinerant yobbo (Leonardo DiCaprio) are redeemed by this filmmaker's breathtaking depiction of one the 20th century's most infamous tragedies. One must appreciate the audacity of a film-maker who manages to twist a death toll of numerous victims into an inspiring story of emancipation.
16. Vessel of Madness (1965)
Peasants, artistic entertainers and Nazi eugenicists interact on a passenger ship sailing from Latin America to Europe in the pre-war era. Stanley Kramer's large-scale film features Vivien Leigh, in her last performance, as a unhappy separated woman, but it's a co-star, as the ship's doctor, and Simone Signoret, as a political noblewoman, who deliver the motion picture with its dramatic punch.
15. Final Journey (1960)
The fictional ship is ripped apart in an detonation and the lead actor's partner (Dorothy Malone) is stuck in their room in this intense proto-disaster pic. Is it possible for the main character and a courageous worker (the actor) free her prior to the vessel goes down? Fun fact: the main setting is represented by the renowned historic ship Île de France.
14. Death on the Nile (1978)
Bette Davis are among the homicide possibilities on board a Egyptian riverboat in this ensemble cast Agatha Christie whodunit. The lead actor, as Hercule Poirot, fails to stop numerous characters being shot, which narrows his persons of interest to a manageable number. Significantly better than the recent version.
13. Dead Calm (1989)
Nicole Kidman act as a husband and wife seeking to heal from the pain of their offspring's demise by taking their yacht for a spin in the ocean, where they rescue a co-star from a sinking schooner. Poor decision! Phillip Noyce's suspense film is basically a killers-on-the-loose story at sea, but an high-quality one that launched her career.
12. The Maggie (1954)
An British man, transporting items for an US businessman, is tricked into hiring a poor condition "Clyde puffer" in the director's brutal Ealing comedy in the rebellious tradition of his own earlier film. Predictably, the ship's British skipper and team trick the main characters for a journey, in all senses of the word.
11. Overwhelming Power (1974)
The director imparts his catastrophe film a political dimension angle in this tension-filled story of bombs planted on a luxury liner, the SS Britannic. Which wire to cut? David Hemmings act as demolition specialists; a supporting player, as the ship's entertainments director, delivers a touching portrayal in tragicomic desperation.
10. Poseidon's Journey (1972)
This cinematic interpretation of the author's novel is among the peaks of the era of disaster movies. The fictional ship is overturned by a tidal wave, and it's the job of the main protagonist to guide his group through the flipped hull to safety. Shelley Winters is remarkable as a small business owner's partner with a handy experience of sports participation.
9. Total Loss (2013)
The main star provides a late-career masterclass in one-man show as a person battling to endure in the Indian Ocean after his personal boat, the Virginia Jean, is impaired in a impact with an stray shipping container. It's stressful enough to view, so one can only imagine how physically gruelling it must have been for the elderly actor to record.
8. Vessel Leader (2013)
The main star delivers outstanding acting in part of his ordinary-person-in-extraordinary-circumstances performances, as the commander of an commercial transport seized by Somali pirates off the geographical area. He has great chemistry by another actor ("I control this vessel"), providing a outstanding initial cinematic appearance as the pirate chief in the director's thriller, inspired by real events. If the last scene fails to move you, you're not human.
7. Geometric Shape (2009)
{Freak weather conditions|
