If you don't already have it, then the six-hour Das Boot is a must, even though it is a touch on the expensive side (circa $40). That, truly, is the best submarine movie ever. All the others are good, too (with the obvious exception of U-571).
My other favorites include:
Run Silent, Run Deep
Hellcats of the Navy
Operation Pacific
Crash Dive
For books, I just finished "Iron Coffins". Fantastic book. Highly reccomended.
