Note that this film is based on "hell ships", which were used by the Japanese to transport Allied POWs and romushas (Asian forced slave laborers). The ships had extremely inhumane living conditions and often a reputation for cruelty among the crew. These unmarked prisoner transports were also targeted as enemy ships by Allied submarines and aircraft, and more than 20,000 Allied POWs died at sea when the transport ships carrying them were attacked.

This week on eBay, eMoviePoster is selling a remarkable group of original vintage 8x10 stills. All of the stills came from closed down movie theaters or poster exchanges. Many of them have original notations on the back that would certainly seem to confirm that they are indeed original. We at eMoviePoster carefully examined every still, and believe every one we are selling is a genuine original vintage still! However, since we know there is no way you can know this for sure from looking at a digital image, be aware that we unconditionally guarantee every still we sell to vintage and from the year we say it is. If you purchase any stills, and after receiving them, have doubts as to their originality, simply return it within one week for a no questions asked refund! We have sold many thousands of stills on eBay in the past two years, and only a handful of them were ever returned because the buyer had any doubt. We stand behind every item we sell!
