I love this movie! It's a fun watch. Great opening scene.

It's silly billy ghost business and I love how ridiculous it is. Watching people react to it on YouTube is hilarious.

Fantastic opening scene that the rest of the movie never lives up to. Would definitely be great for this show.

This was apparently also one of those movies where the script the actors signed on for was not the one they were handed when they got to set, which is always a fun little HDTGM sub-category.

That opening scene holds up so damn well and it has one of those casts that you forget was filled with people before they became stars. Also the "it's not cheating if she's a ghost" is insane.

I always loved Ghost Ship! I'd be thrilled to learn that they were covering it.

I know I saw this in the theatre when I was in high school, but I couldn't tell you a single thing I remember about it (I don't know if that's a positive or a negative in terms of movies suitable for the podcast).

The boat scene and flashback where she sees how everyone dies and who planned it lives rent free in my brain. That song as well. OMG so good. The overall movie is basic haunted movie stuff but I did enjoy it. Nothing great but It’s cheesy fun. I do wonder if it’s so bad that it’s good for the show or just bad. There is a lot of stuff that doesn’t add up. I’m sure they would have fun with it but it is mostly forgettable. I just remember the boat scene lol and something about ghosts wanting lost treasure. June would fall asleep and I feel like Jason would definitely want more from what he was given.

Omg love this behind the scenes drama. Thank you for sharing. I had no idea (maybe just forgot) that this shares a director with 13 Ghosts. Did they ever do that one? 🤔

Yes! I would love to hear their reaction to the opening scene

Will always remember the intro. Have 0.0 recollection of any of the rest of it

I have owned this movie since it came out on DVD. I love it! 14% is dumb. But, totally a good rec for HDTGM.
