Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThere is no music or any score in the movie until the very end. Until then, all the ambient sounds are ship noises.
- GoofsThere are several shots showing the ship propeller operating only partially submerged. This would be an extremely inefficient method of propulsion.
- Quotes
Capt. Edwin Rummill: [Narrating - commenting on the provocatively beautiful wife of the Maori cook who was hired at the last minute, and who had insisted on bringing his wife along, against Captain Rummill's wishes] It had never entered my mind that the woman would be so sensuous, so exotically beautiful. I knew then that I had started my command with a dangerous error of judgment.
- Crazy creditsIn the opening credits of this black-and-white film, the last word of the title is colored blood red.

Featured review
Lame, predictable, except for Dorothy Dandridge
Lame and predictable film with James Mason incredibly miscast as captain of the ship. you know immediately that Broderick Crawford will be the instigator of trouble as he always was and the outcome shows no surprises.
The best part of the film is the voluptuous Dorothy Dandridge who displays her charms that would make any crew mutiny for her. As as the custom in the 50's, she is married to a man who is twice her age which also makes the film sadly lacking.
Better to see James Mason in his other films in which he portrays a much more realistic person.
