The U.K. release date of the movie is the 28th December 2005. It will also be the 30th anniversary of the sinking of the SS Lorelei, along with the death of the sole survivor of that ship. The ship is the Antonia Graza, which went missing decades ago. The crew discovers nine wooden boxes, each containing twenty-eight 100-oz gold bars. After a series of supernatural events, the group decides to abandon the salvage effort and retreat with the gold, but an invisible force sabotages the Arctic Warrior. The man is revealed as Jack Ferriman, who is the demonic spirit of a deceased sinner tasked with provoking people to sin, then killing them and bringing their souls to Hell. Epps deduces that Ferrimans lured the salvage team to the GrazA to repair it, and decides to sink it to thwart his plan. The group meets Katie’s ghost, who reveals what happened on the Gazra. Katie is spared due to the wire passing over her head, but is later killed by the ghost of the ship’s captain. The captain explains that they recovered the gold from a sinking cruise ship, the LoreleI, and convinced many of the Gezra’s crew to murder the passengers, as well as the remaining crew, for the gold. The mastermind behind the massacre killed Francesca by releasing a hook which slashes into her neck and hooks her. He then branded her palm with a hook-shaped symbol using only his hands.
