The Island (1980)

In the bustling heart of New York City, renowned journalist Blair Maynard, fueled by a potent blend of curiosity and courage, persuades his editor to permit an investigation into the enigmatic vanishing of ships within the Bermuda Triangle. Amidst his own life's chaos, Maynard's ex-wife thrusts their son, Justin, into the equation, leaving the boy in his care while she embarks on a journey with her new beau. Maynard, ever the opportunist, promises his son an adventure to Walt Disney World, concealing the true, more perilous direction they are headed - straight into the heart of the Bermuda Triangle. Their journey, however, takes an unexpected turn when their plane succumbs to the Triangle's sinister grasp and crashes onto an uncharted island. Undeterred by their predicament, Maynard rents a local boat helmed by the enigmatic Dr. Brazil, hoping to salvage their trip with a father-son barracuda fishing excursion. But the island's malevolent secrets soon surface when they are ambushed by a band of ruthless, modern-day pirates, forcing Maynard to kill one in a desperate act of self-defense. Captured and entrapped, they find themselves in a world where time stands still, ruled by the merciless pirate commander, John David Nau. In a twisted turn of fate, Maynard is coerced into replacing the husband of the bereaved Beth, while Justin is insidiously manipulated and transformed into one of the pirate kin. In this chilling labyrinth of piracy and deception, Maynard must navigate the treacherous waters of captivity and psychological warfare to plot an escape. As he grapples with the transformations of his own son and his forced role within the pirate community, he must also contend with the chilling reality that they may never leave the island's menacing grasp. In this high-stakes game of survival, the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle deepens, becoming a chilling testament to the hidden dangers lurking beneath the surface of the seemingly tranquil Caribbean.

The Island is a horror movie featuring Michael Caine.
