That's the best part of the film, the reason to watch it. Really cool exterior shots of the sub, dozens of closeups of equipment.

I give it a B just for the sub interiors and fairly authentic dialogue.

Yeah, they showed Below on the italian tv 1 week ago at 2 am.
The film impressed me in very good way.
It could become a cult B-movie a la carpenters They Live/ 1997 Escape from NY etc....
Very nice horror movie, has a decent plot, it doesn't give away everything at the beginning, just creates little by little the right amount of tension throughout the film so that when the conclusion comes you're not expecting it.
The interior of the sub was great and even the cg effects weren't bad.
