I’m having a bad memory day. What horror movie involves a few couples on a ship and it gets stormy or foggy. Some one is cheating death by switching bodies with people and then killing them. I think the knife is the object that permits the exchange of souls. I’m sure the movie is a couple years old at the most.

Well, it sounds vaguely like **The Bermuda Triangle** from 1978. I remember watching it on TV and having the bejeesus scared out of me. I definitely remember that there was a switched body at the end.

It’s not The Bermuda Triangle, but thanks for trying. It is not an old movie. The whole movie is about a killer changing bodies on the ship to avoid discovery and killing the people after exchanging souls so they can’t tell anybody.

The Ferryman?

By the by, it’s strange that Google searches the board now, so that looking for stuff often brings up the exact thread as the first search.

Are they running out of punctuation where you live?
