Robards heads a motley cast of passengers aboard a steamer that drifts into the Sargasso Sea. They eerily drift by a floating graveyard of abandoned and wrecked ships, eventually ending up stranded on a remote island. The direction is often atmospheric, though it struggles a bit with
plausibility. At one point Robards is fired out of a submarine's torpedo tube and surfaces safely without much of a problem. A remake of a 1923 silent. Includes the song "Ship Of My Dreams."
