Films from this subgenre tend to feature dramatic scenes in which submarine-hunters try to destroy submarines with depth charges. To heighten this tension, these films often depict submarine commanders descending below "hull crush depth" to evade attackers. The danger from the extreme pressure of deep water dives and the claustrophobic, cramped submarine quarters imbues films of the subgenre with a great deal of dramatic tension.
Films of this subgenre typically focus on a small but determined crew of submariners battling against enemy submarines or submarine-hunter ships, or against other problems ranging from disputes amongst the crew, threats of mutiny, life-threatening mechanical breakdowns, or the daily difficulties of living on a submarine. Submarine films are a subgenre of war film in which the majority of the plot revolves around a submarine below the ocean's surface.
