Run Silent Run Deep
A vengeful submarine captain, haunted by the loss of his crew, leads his new team into reckless danger as he pursues the Japanese destroyer that destroyed his previous vessel.
“Gable and Lancaster make the seas boil in the battle adventure that hits like a torpedo!”
Synopsis
After his submarine was sunk by the Japanese during World War II, a captain is finally given command of another vessel after spending a year in a desk job. His relentless drive for revenge against the destroyer responsible for sinking his previous sub puts his new crew in unnecessary danger.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 17
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
