Anybody seen movie "Below"?

nikimcbee · 07-15-07, 09:09 PM

Have had 3 people asked me if I'd seen this sub movie "Below"? I finally figured out that it is a horror movie. Has anybody seen this? I've seen every sub movie made, and I'd never heard of it. Is it any good.

I've seen the movie nikimcbee. You are correct it is nothing more than a horroror flick set on a US submarine. It could have just as easily been set on a train. AMC has run it a couple of times recently.

There are a few interior shots of the boat, but nothing you couldn't see by watching Operation Petticoat. And the former has better actors.

My two cents.

EDIT: Looks like AMC will air the movie again 01 AUG

I liked this movie only cause i like horrors

But if your looking for a ww2 sub movie with action you won't find it with this one.

Seen about half of it. I'll never get those minutes of my life back. Don't waste your time with this movie. It blows canal water.

If nothing else, the beginning has great shots of a PBY and also of the sub. If you like horror movies on top of sub movies then I would give this a 3/5. Just don't expect Das Boot!

Yeah it's kind of lame. I did like the part where the German DD used the chains though.

You're right, but if it's Cary Grant in WWII, I'd probably go with "Father Goose".
