A late-night trip on the Staten Island Ferry becomes a fight for survival. Selena, a clothing designer who dreams of becoming an artist, joins passengers who face a murderous mutant mouse named Steamboat Willie. The mouse turns the ferry into a bloody trap filled with horror, slapstick humor, Disney jokes, and extreme gore. The passengers include workers, police officers, Disney-style princesses, and other New York characters. The story focuses on parody and survival instead of modern politics or identity debates. Selena becomes the main surviving character, but the film does not present her as a symbol for a social cause. The movie mainly mocks Disney branding and public-domain rules through a violent horror parody. The visible themes involve survival, comedy, Disney fandom, and the use of Steamboat Willie as a monster, so the woke elements matter very little.
