La camisa de la serpiente

1996 · Directed by Antoni P. Canet

Comedy90sGuys' Night

Kelsey Grammer commands a junker diesel sub against the Navy's nuclear fleet in a war-game exercise. Rob Schneider is annoying on purpose. Bruce Dern yells. It's wonderful.

Why It's Cult

Down Periscope is what happens when you cross The Hunt for Red October with Stripes. Grammer is a perfect rogue captain — Frasier with a torpedo room. The supporting cast (Lauren Holly, William H. Macy, Harland Williams) is loaded. Released between Frasier seasons and largely forgotten on theatrical release; lived on cable for thirty years. The cult is strong but private.

Starring
