I've personally never been a fan of sailing (what, with the nausea, claustrophobia, and Galeophobia), but the 1989 horror-thriller DEAD CALM (WATCH IT HERE!) – produced by George Miller (MAD MAX) and directed by Phillip Noyce (BLIND FURY) – ups the ante by showing what would happen if you were stuck in the middle of the ocean with a crazy, homicidal Billy Zane! Which makes me want to sail even less. Anyway, here's the official synopsis for the film, which also stars Sam Neill and a young Nicole Kidman:

After a tragedy, John Ingram and his wife Rae are spending some time isolated at sea, when they come across a stranger who has abandoned a sinking ship.

Meanwhile, if you also fear sailing and Billy Zane, check out this month's BEST HORROR MOVIE YOU NEVER SAW about this clever maritime thriller at the top of the article! And for more video content, subscribe to our recently launched YouTube channel JoBlo Horror Videos!
