Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Aimed squarely at anyone who likes to be kept guessing and fans of a well-timed joke. Best watched without your phone in hand. Sits nicely alongside Scooby-Doo! and the Witch's Ghost.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Keeps the tension tight, at 1 hr. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1941: an older pace and style.
  • Not ideal if you just want to unwind.

A down-on-his luck businessman organizes an excursion to Sir Henry Morgan's Island for a treasure hunt only to encounter a mysterious phantom and murder.
