Gray Lady Down

By Patrick Mondout

Charleton Heston was no stranger to Super70s disaster films. Indeed, he was the king of the genre starring in Airport '75, Earthquake, Two Minute Warning, and this box-office disaster. Heston is the captain of the U.S.S. Neptune - a nuclear submarine. Disaster inevitably strikes when the Neptune hits a Norwegian cargo ship (what? no Soviet ships were available?) off the coast of Connecticut and sinks to the ocean floor. Precious minutes pass as the designer of the sub (David Carradine) is consulted with plans of a rescue. Will they run out of oxygen or will the experimental diving craft save them? For fans of genre or the gunslinger himself.
