Below (2002)

Ghost stories and submarine movies... how come nobody ever thought to combine the two before this? It's an effective marriage for sure, one that results in a film that's creepy and atmospheric as all get-out. Comes up a tad short on characterization, but the actors involved give performances that are accomplished enough to diminish that fault. Especially Bruce Greenwood, who takes what could be a stock character and infuses it with complexity and ambiguity. He really can do no wrong, I'm convinced.

Grade: B+
