scuba diving movies

[v4nity]

the abyss was a great film.. where she drowns and he tows her back and revives her.. that was epic. like edge of my seat...

Don't forget 20,000 Leagues. This is probably the first time that the movie audience could experience what it is like to see fish and corals. I own the movie (DVD) and am always impressed by the underwater shots.

I found a bargain basement movie at Walmart called "Beneath the 12 Mile Reef". Lot's of sponge diving, fighting and a perky young blonde. It features a young Robert Wagner as the "Greek" and a host of long departed actors. Best sequence is treatment for the bends using ice. Brrrrh. X

GREAT movie!!! Very unknown, extremely high on the hokey factor. Groups of men with their arms around one another, skipping down a dirt road singing! Now we're off to the sea. Now we fight over The Girl, Now we sing again, oops - somebody got The Rapture!

What a classic. And yes, the bends on ice scene is a must use for any rescue class!

You've got that right. I did notice in Blockbuster last weekend that all the copies were rented. The kiddies must be going for a fright night.

There was too much schlock stuffed in between the cave diving sequences. "Sigourney Weaver Goes Diving" should have been the name of that flick.

I know you must mean "waste of film"
By the time the movie was two thirds over I was ready to put on my gear and depth test her myself,just to not have to hear her.
And I wasn't the only one in that mode of thought as I heard several other people mention how glad they were in the end(poor dude though,even before the shark attacks)lol
