- Das Boot (1981) George Orwell wrote in 1946, "The word Fascism has now no meaning except insofar as it signifies 'something not desirable.'" It's a rejoinder to linguistic laziness that divides the world into two types: Nazis, and everybody else.
- The Enemy Below (1957) "The Enemy Below" (1957) depicts a gripping back-and-forth naval battle in the South Atlantic during WWII between a U.S. destroyer and a German U-boat.
- The Abyss (1989) "The Abyss" is mostly an underwater habitat movie, similar to Barry Levinson's "Sphere." But James Cameron's far superior 1989 sci-fi thriller features submarines with windows, and that allows for the best underwater chase ever put to film.
- The Hunt for Red October (1990) Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan novels have been made into exactly two classic films: "Patriot Games" in 1992 and "The Hunt for Red October" in 1990.

Oct 3, 2024 · The best submarine movies of all time plunge audiences into the claustrophobic, high-stakes world beneath the ocean's surface. From the creaking of metal hulls to the silent maneuvers of underwater warfare, these films deliver edge-of-your-seat suspense and breathtaking drama.
- Das Boot (1981) Only very few movies in the history of cinema can come close to Wolfgang Petersen’s Das Boot for its claustrophobic realism and dramatic intensity.
- The Enemy Below (1957) In American WWII submarine dramas, the enemies are often caricatured or dehumanized. Filmmaker and versatile performer Dick Powell’s The Enemy Below thankfully stays away from such reductive portrayal as Wendell Mayes’ script gives equal weight to the perspectives of US destroyer captain Murrell (Robert Mitchum) and German U-boat commander Von Stolberg (Curd Jurgens).
- The Damned (1947) The poetic realism of Rene Clement has brought us the memorable post-war French classics Forbidden Games (1952) and Gervaise (1956).
- The Hunt for Red October (1990) Despite its relentless aggression since World War II, America – as portrayed by its mass media – loves to assume a vulnerable role, where the ‘American way of life’ is threatened by a hostile power.
