One of my all time favorites.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

oh my goodness. i don't review movies that haven't watched, and i watched this one. having watched it, i asked myself 'why?'.two reasons:one, gabrielle anwar is extremely attractive, and i hope that her participation in this 'ed wood special' does not harm her career, because i would like to keep seeing her (sort of like a betty grable pin-up, a farrah fawcet poster, she is indeed an attractive human).two, it is as bad (or as good, if you like) as ed wood's movies. (for you young'uns, ed wood made a string of amazingly ludicrous sci-fi movies in the old days) this movie just barely qualifies on this level. i mean, they use credibility as a bungee cord, as something to be streeeetched to try to save the poor writing/poor budget/lack of imagination/poor acting.but above all, (since there is nothing else to take as important in this film) baldwin has the worst haircut in the history of film, one which he has used in at least one other film. ¡hello! ¡goodbye!catch it cable, don't pay to rent- my goodness, it's worthless. 'plan 9 from outer space' does it better, and is equally *realistic*. but it's true, ms. anwar is indeed prettier than 'Vampira'.alvink, xalapa, veracruz, mexico

... if it takes only two civilian scientists to rescue a sunken boat?
=== Attention, no spoilers ahead, the whole movie is a spoiler ==> I really like submarine movies (all time favorites are 'Hunt for Red October' and 'Crimson Tide'), but this one is utterly insulting. Without going into the details (sonar screens that look like faked radar screens (not even real ones...), a reactor that reminds me of a giant milk cooler on old McDonalds farm, etc. ....) the whole story is absolute rubbish. If it was possible to operate a submarine with only two people (who aren't even properly trained to do it) I guess the Navy would probably do so.-5 out of 10

This was one bad movie. The story, action and acting were all bad. Even the music was hokey. It sounded like a joke. I don't think any of the sub movies we love will be blown out of the water by this one. Maybe in the sequel we can watch them all freeze on the arctic ice.

The filmmakers apparently made no effort to maintain even the lowest acceptable level of technical/scientific/logical consistency. It was never explained convincingly why the crew abandoned the conn (was it the gas leak? if so, why didn't they put their gas masks on?) effectively losing all control over their boat and fate, the procedures presented are way off the mark, the exhausted, asphyxiated crewmen find the energy (and the oxygen!) to cheer at the end, the conning tower diving planes have miraculously broken through the ice without leaving any trace (they are much wider than the trough opened by the sub), etc., etc. A waste of time and money, both for the makers and the viewers. Only thing worth it is Gabrielle Anwar (mainly because she is very agreeable to look at).
