Has anyone seen Ghost Boat the movie? The book was great not so sure on the movie as it goes from a US Fleetboat in 1943 to a english sub which looks like a german uboat.

So yeah, probably U-571 is my 1st worst pick followed up by "Grey lady down". Which was a 1970's movie about a ohio class that got rammed by a freighter and sank. "What the hell would a missle boat be doing that close to the surface in open ocean in the 1st place".
I have to totally agree with CSA FA on his hit list of best sub movie's though. I have one question that maybe someone could answer for me. Was Das Boot actually filmed on a U-boat and if it was where was it?

Stacy Keach
Christopher Reeve

U-571 was in the TV listings the other day, most films if they appear military/nautical I'll record them (quite a backlog building up), but I didn't even give it a second-glance.
