The DVD says:

Take an ocean voyage of full-masted fright with Dead Calm, "a spare, smart, seductive piece of movie-making with enough tension to keep us all hyperventilating for hours" (Los Angeles Times). Thriller specialist Philip Noyce (The Bone Collector) directs three splendid actors - Sam Neill (Event Horizon), Nicole Kidman (Eyes Wide Shut) and Billy Zane (Titanic) - in riveting performances. Joe and Rae Ingram (Neill and Kidman) do the right thing and rescue the half-delirious sole survivor (Zane) of a crippled schooner. But soon the stranger will plunge the unwary pair into an intense battle of cat and mouse. And life or death.

Running Time: 93 mins

Region: 2

Ratio: 2.35:1

Sound: Dolby Digital 2.0

Special Features: None.

Certificate: 15

My Opinion:

Excellent suspense thriller rather than a horror. Billy Zane is the perfect insane murderer who ends up on board a couple's yacht. It starts off slow, but the action soon heats up as the Ingram's start to suspect that something isn't right. The DVD is completely lacking in special features which is a real shame.

Bloody heart Rating:
