In Harm's Way
 

And no one should forget IN HARM'S WAY.

I just visited the building used as the morgue where Kirk Douglas' character goes to review the remains of his wife. It really was a morgue during the Vietnam war and is now a military surplus store on Sand Island, Oahu.

Necromancy is frowned upon in most societies. Do not ressurect what should not be ressurected.


I've never even heard of this movie...

You've never heard of this movie because it is still being created.

The film crew is supposed to be back at the USS Drum sometime in the near future for more filming, last I heard.

I can't believe I missed out on this. Would loved to have auditioned for it.:damn:

This looks like yet another Hollywood attempt to make a competent submarine movie. I will bet a day's pay that it will be craptastic.

[quote=Faamecanic]It was very good; suitable level of gore, and quite a few of the central characters buy the farm or are hideously wounded.

Not to nitpick, but they discover Landsberg Concentration camp. The other historical inaccuracy however, is that they take the Berghof which was actually destroyed by bombing. Besides that, the 3rd Infantry captured it, not the 101. Poetic license, I suppose.

I understand that more filming for USS Seaviper will be underway sometime within the next couple of months.

Even more exciting to me is the upcoming "The Untold Story" documentary on the USS Drum (SS-228) in production by the same crew!

http://www.ussdrum228story.com

The documentary is supposed to be released in 2010 with partial proceeds going towards the restoration of USS Drum.

They have interviewed many Drum veterans and are still working hard on this documentary.

Please keep it in mind, as I'm sure it will be an interesting look at WWII submarine life and it will also help upkeep the Drum, which is in need of help as most of you know.

Well, as long as it's helping keep USS Drum in one piece, I guess it's worth the trouble.

I might get hanged from the nearest tree for saying this, but I loved Down Periscope. It didn't have an ounce of accuracy in it, but it's still hilarious if you can suspend your disbelief.

Yes a good movie but very off the mark as to what really happened and the real rail bridge was steal not wood like it was in that movie it is an insult to allied POWS of Japan to be honest go to the D-Day museum in New Orleans they have some very good docs there about the war and they are graphic no kiddies allowed inside I saw some WWII vets walk out and others where crying it was that good. This Seaviper sounds pretty stupid and I dont know myself it seems kind of scamish the USS Drum procedes thingy :hmmm:. I will pass thank you on both if you want to really help any old sub I say go to its location or look it up on the web and ask to donate yourself directly thats the best way to do it. This Seaviper sounds like it is low budget like this sucker is a G movie when most are A or B movies even if it is legit not much money is going to be made.

Wait, why is it an insult to POWs?

IRL, Saito was portrayed fairly accurately as a not sadistic camp officer.

Uh I am guessing that you are being sarcasitc? you could always use a little :O: or a :haha: to throw somebody a bone. Casue that might ahve been a good movie but it was way off like most movies are but sadly it seems that many people base historical fact on movies very often. If you are being serious dont waste your time with me as I know I am right just to let you know.:03: That last sentance was not sarcasim.

@ the guy that was bieng picky on Band of Brothers that show was based on a book by Stephen E. Ambrose that was 100% factual and he wrote the book after talking to many of the men who where in 101 506th E company and they filmed an hour or so long doc where they spoke with the Easy company guys that are still alive and the producers and Ambrose all went through to make sure the things shown where accurate and they checked with the Easy company men as well. they where at Berchtesgaden the city that the Berghof was near not the Berghof itself which was bombed though soliders did go to look at it. http://www.ww2-airborne.us/18corps/1..._overview.html
