Last updated
The Ferryman is a 2007 New Zealand horror film directed by Chris Graham. It stars British actor John Rhys-Davies and New Zealand actress Amber Sainsbury. The film follows a group of twenty-somethings who charter a boat to Fiji for a trip of a lifetime, before encountering an evil that demands vengeance at any cost.
Background
Kathy and Zane escape after the girl from Kathy's dream visits her and reveals the spirit's origin and how to defeat it: The spirit cannot possess money, as this would compel it to pay the fare which would allow the titular Ferryman to convey it into the afterlife. Kathy tricks the possessed Tate into accepting a coin that the girl gave her. The Ferryman appears and claims the spirit, before disappearing into the darkness. The final scenes show Kathy in Fiji, luring a man she meets at a party back to her room, so that Zane can use the dagger to transfer his soul into the man's body.
