....associated with this movie is the acting and the story line. My God, this is bad. You know how with some movies you're hoping that all the characters get it in the end? This is one of those movies.
"Haunted Boat" is probably, if not definitely one of the worst movies I have ever seen. And here's why.
You could not ask for worse acting, to me I personally thought this was a college media class, where a group of students had to make a scary movie.
Secondy, the camera work is worse than terrible; I wouldn't be surprised if they were using a video phone.
And I can write so much more, but would be here for hours! All in all, please please please do not watch this. It is 90 minutes or more which I will not ever get back of my life, and I'm saying this for your benefit.

While I agree that the film is hurt badly by the technical merits, particularly in the first third, it does move towards a very surrealistic feeling that reminded me a lot of Carnival of Souls. That film was similarly pretty low rent, but managed to create a very unearthly atmosphere. Haunted Boat seems to be at least trying for the same thing, although with less internal logic. So I give it a few points for ambition.
I checked this movie out when it still had 6 votes and it said like 7.2 or something, but seriously this is a horrible movie. Lets break it down. The first thing you notice about this movie is that it was filmed on a hand-held digital camera owned by a freshman at a community college. the next thing you'll notice is that the actors, are all friends of said freshman (he probably met them at the pub the night before. Third on the list you will notice that the musical editing is horrible, and they try to cram many songs into this movie, at 30 second intervals... also all digital editing is done on said freshman's home PC... probably using windows movie maker. This movie was horrible... pretentious, had an undeniably bad script, and acting that followed suit. I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone I know, but I do sentence the writer and director to watch this movie in hell for an eternity.
This is easily one of the worst 5 movies I've ever seen. It's not scary or any of the other things suggested in the plot outline. This movie is agonizingly slow and I was bored for almost all 98 minutes. While the acting is mediocre at best, the biggest problem is the script, which is poorly written, slow and plodding with no real direction. Occasionally an eerie mood is set only to be broken by some useless line or event. I'm not surprised that the entire cast was sick and throwing up between shots, they did after all have to try and digest a terrible script. As a huge fan of good horror movies, I'm always irritated that something this bad gets made. Save yourself 98 minutes you'll never get back.
