Trivia:
Darren Aronofsky, who co-wrote the screenplay, was originally going to direct the film in 1999 but instead made Requiem for a Dream (2000). more
Goofs:
Factual errors: The British ship wouldn't have flown the Union Flag (often called the Union Jack) at the stern as this is never used as an ensign (the flag at the back of the ship). Assuming the ship shown in the movie was a merchant ship then it would have flown the Red Ensign which is red with a small Union Flag in the top corner nearest the flag pole. more
Quotes:
Brice: [snaps] You're not skipper of this ship.
Odell: [snaps back] And neither are you, sir.

Some good scares and interesting revelations, 11 January 2004
Author: ctomvelu from usa

Interesting mix of a ghost story, WWII submarine thriller and murder mystery, with a topnotch cast headed by Olivia Williams as a nurse rescued from a torpedoed hospital ship and Bruce Greenwood as a submarine commander with a secret. Must have been a U.S.-U.K. coproduction, since much of the cast is made up of Brits playing Americans, but what the hey. It's a solid production through-and-through. Came out at the same time as the much-ballyhooed GHOST SHIP, with little or no marketing, and thus was overlooked in theaters. A must-see for thriller fans.
