Synopsis

Amazon.com
If the idea behind director John Beck's nautical frightfest isn't exactly new--long-lost ship is mysteriously found floating at sea--the filmmaker invests it with a smart sense of style and tension that lifts it above its horror-exploitation roots. The brooding orchestral score from composer John Frizzell (13 Ghosts, Beautiful, Alien Resurrection) conjures up the appropriate atmosphere of foreboding and unease, while largely steering clear of the genre's inherent cheese quotient. Indeed, the composer invokes an often surprising sense of emotional strain and weariness, injecting some welcome human dimensions amid the expected shrieking strings and rumbling brass and percussion. While certain genre clichés are paid heed, Frizzell's efforts here often as not eschew orchestral thunder for more subtle, intimate music that lifts the film from mere floating haunted-house gambit into something more emotionally gripping. --Jerry McCulley

CD Reviews

A great Soundtrack and movie
April | Huntington Beach, CA United States | 11/18/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I loved the movie, Dark Castle's movies are just plain cool! The soundtrack is awesome! I love the music...alyssa parks: the song is called "My Little Box" and it's track number 23...I've yet to find out who sings it!!! I'm determined too! Does anyone know?
Oh, and the song where Santos is jamming it through the boat, and the song is at the end of the movie, it's called "Not Falling" by Mudvayne! Hoped that helped. Go see the movie if your a fan of Dark Castle's other movies!!! It's a must see!!!"
Francesca's song
Paul Stanford | Ft. Lauderdale FL | 04/19/2003
(2 out of 5 stars)

"The italian song Francesca sings in the beginning is not on this soundtrack. It is called "Senza Fine" and it was dubbed for the actress (Francescsa Rettondini) by singer Monica Mancini. You can find it on some of Monica Mancini's albums. Now if someone can tell my wife where to get Francesca's red dress..."
My little box -- by gabriel mann
shawn michael miller | St Louis, MO | 12/02/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Track 23, the song played during the flashback scene is called "My Little Box" and is performed by Gabriel Mann.This track makes the flashback scene come alive, turning it into the best scene of the film, and making this a soundtrack worthy of a purchase.Gabriel Mann has a brand new CD out titled "Tug Of War". If you like "My Little Box" on the Ghost Ship Soundtrack, give it a listen. I guarantee it won't disappoint. You can find it on amazon.com (try a search using "Gabriel Mann Tug Of War")...."
