A made for TV movie written by Leslie Stevens and directed by Russ Mayberry. A bit contrived, but sustainable interest and well acted. An international scientific team is onboard the submarine Fer-de-lance. One of the hands, while on liberty, buys some baby snakes, thinking it was cute they had the same name as the sub. When the ship begins to submerge, several crew members loose consciousness as the sub goes into an uncontrolled dive and hits the bottom. As the ship is stuck, the baby snakes are strong enough to escape. Now panic strikes at 1,060 feet down.
The apt cast onboard includes: David Janssen, Jason Evers, Ivan Dixon, Hope Lange, Robert Ito, Sherry Boucher, Charles Robinson and Frank Bonner.
