DANGEROUS CHARTER(1962)
In the set: 100 Greatest Cult Classics

Horrible picture quality, although it clears up
after a few minutes! This is actually not too
bad! Some fishermen find an abondoned ship afloat
and claim her as their own! Eventualy the original
owners re-board and take it over! The rest is about
the salvagers trying to get the ship back in their
control!

An aside here, the movie stops about 6 minutes
from the end of the movie! You have to re-start
it then jump past the bad spot! B-

From a reviewer at IMDb.com:

Three fishermen discover an abandoned yacht in
the middle of the ocean; they board it and
discover a dead body. The authorities let
them keep the boat guessing that the real
owner to be a mysterious criminal who they
suspect will try to charter it, which of
course does happen and needless to say his
intentions are no good.

Dangerous Charter was filmed in 1958 but
not released until 1962. I am not too sure
why this was but guess it found difficulty
in getting a distribution deal. This seems
a little unfair as this is a well-paced
and pretty suspenseful little thriller.
Unlike most sea-based movies it actually
looks like it was shot on board the vessel.
This authenticity does it some favours and
the scenes at sea are very nice. The story
itself is quite a routine affair but I did
find myself involved with it and was
actually bothered by what was happening
on-screen. On the whole, this is a more
than decent little genre piece. - Red-Barracuda
