20. Abyssal Attack (1998)
Stephen Sommers' futuristic scarefest details a bunch of attention-grabbing ensemble cast acting as mercenaries hired to sink the cruise ship the main setting. Yet a massive sea creature has beaten them to it! Including the potential cephalopod fodder are Kevin J O'Connor as a diamond criminal.
19. 1900's Tale (1998)
A baby, left on the ocean-going ship SS Virginian, grows up to be a gifted pianist (Tim Roth) who remains aboard the boat. The highlight of Giuseppe Tornatore's whimsical hokum is Roth competing in a musical showdown with a historical figure, arguably inaccurately depicted as a overconfident individual.
18. Aquatic World (1995)
The lead actor portrays a warrior-esque drifter with aquatic adaptations and a modified sailing vessel in this megabudget sci-fi B-movie, set in a later era where vanishing ice sheets have flooded the Earth. All people is searching for legendary terra firma while fighting off the villain and his group of continuously smoking marauders.
17. Titanic (1997)
An extended period of tiresome canoodling between a wealthy lady (the female lead) and an itinerant yobbo (Leonardo DiCaprio) are rescued by the director's spectacular recreation of one the 20th century's most infamous disasters. You have to admire the boldness of a film-maker who manages to twist a death toll of 1,500 into an inspiring narrative of emancipation.
16. Boat of Lunatics (1965)
Commoners, Spanish performers and Nazi eugenicists mingle on a commercial vessel sailing from Latin America to the Old World in 1933. Stanley Kramer's epic includes a legendary actress, in her swan song, as a unhappy separated woman, but it's a co-star, as the ship's doctor, and Simone Signoret, as a political noblewoman, who supply the movie with its powerful impact.
15. The Last Voyage (1960)
The central vessel is destroyed in an blast and Robert Stack's spouse (the co-star) is stranded in their room in this compelling early catastrophe film. Can Stack and a brave technician (the supporting player) free her ahead of the ship sinks? Fun fact: the fictional ship is played by the renowned European vessel Île de France.
14. Death on the Nile (1978)
Two legendary actresses are including the killing culprits on board a Egyptian riverboat in this celebrity-filled crime novelist murder mystery. Peter Ustinov, as the famous detective, is unable to halt numerous characters being stabbed, which reduces his persons of interest to a smaller group. Much more enjoyable than the recent version.
13. Ocean Stillness (1989)
Sam Neill play a partners attempting to recover from the pain of their child's passing by venturing on their vessel for a spin in the sea, where they recover Billy Zane from a sinking schooner. Poor decision! This filmmaker's suspense film is basically a killers-on-the-loose story at sea, but an high-quality one that put Kidman on the map.
12. The Maggie (1954)
An UK citizen, moving items for an US businessman, is manipulated into employing a dilapidated "Clyde puffer" in the director's harsh Ealing comedy in the rebellious style of his own earlier film. Naturally, the ship's Scottish captain and crew take the two landlubbers for a ride, in all senses of the expression.
11. Unstoppable Force (1974)
Richard Lester gives his catastrophe film a state-of-the-nation angle in this tension-filled tale of explosives positioned on a luxury liner, the fictional ship. Which wire to cut? Richard Harris portray bomb disposal experts; a supporting player, as the ship's entertainments director, provides a emotional portrayal in sadly funny despair.
10. Ocean Disaster (1972)
This adaptation of the author's literary work is one of the peaks of the 1970s disaster genre. The fictional ship is capsized by a tidal wave, and it's the job of the main protagonist to direct his group through the inverted vessel to safety. the actress is memorable as a retailer's spouse with a practical history of competitive swimming.
9. Everything's Gone (2013)
The main star provides a late-career masterclass in single character portrayal as a person fighting to stay alive in the specific sea after his personal boat, the main setting, is harmed in a impact with an lost transport unit. It's anxious enough to watch, so heaven knows how extremely demanding it must have been for the senior performer to film.
8. Ship Commander (2013)
Tom Hanks delivers outstanding acting in among his ordinary-person-in-extraordinary-circumstances roles, as the skipper of an US merchant vessel hijacked by Somali pirates off the specific location. He has great chemistry by another actor ("I control this vessel"), delivering a sensational film debut as the criminal boss in the director's thriller, inspired by real events. If the final sequence doesn't make you blub, you're not human.
7. Geometric Shape (2009)
