RÊVASSER FILMS & GUERNSEY FILMSWORKS present a film by Lars Janssen.
Starring: Richard Rowden, Sean Cronin, Munraj Bhachu.
“[Richard] Rowden is compelling as Hook – weathered, embittered, and capable of a quiet nobility that never tips into hero worship. He speaks sparingly, which works well given the film’s often minimal dialogue. In fact, some of the most effective sequences are nearly wordless, relying on body language, atmosphere, and a moody score to carry tension. That restraint was unexpected and, as a horror fan, I found it refreshing.
[Lars] Janssen makes excellent use of location, too. Guernsey’s Castle Cornet and a superb replica of the 18th-century frigate Shtandart give the film visual weight far beyond its budget. The aesthetic, with its grey skies and moss-covered ruins, elevates what is essentially an extended chase story, albeit one with sword fights, curses, and a strong whiff of blood-soaked folklore.
Captain Hook: The Cursed Tides deserves credit for trying something different. It’s a quiet storm of a film that carves out its own corner in the public domain horror boom with a weather-beaten hook and a haunted heart.”
