– S.O.S. Barracuda is a german series consisting out of 8 movies made from 1997 to 2002. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1169951 During the summer of 2018 I heard that there was a rather fantastic scene (with some flaws) in one of the movies. But I thought I would probably never see it. These movies weren’t shown since the early 2000’s in german TV and there are no DVD/Blu-ray releases. Then I made a request for it on my blog. I was very lucky to get videos files from a friendly guy who read my request about these movies.
I subscribed to an email-alert that I would get if these movies ever would be shown again here in german TV. Since, as I said, the movies weren’t shown for over 15 years….I had very little hope that they would ever be shown again. But yesterday I got such an email alert….. …I was quite shocked….in a good way On January 23 a first movie of that show is shown on “RTL Passion” (german pay TV). Oddly enough they show movie number 3…at first. At my place where I have cable….I can’t get that channel, even I would want to.
I would love to get recordings of all 8 movies. AS I understand only 2 or 3 have scuba content in it. But I want all of them in a good quality. Especially that one with the epic scuba drowning!!!! Hopefully the channel will show all of them….
I will try to figure out if there is a way in which I could get these movies in nice quality files. Has anyone experience in recording from a TV airing? In a way that you would have a quality file on the computer afterwards? I have a digital recorder which I use to record movies all the time. But they are then on that recorder and can’t be moved to anywhere else. I also have an older recorder with DVD drive, which I could use to get it to the computer….but as I said, I can’t get that channel so….both recorders are not an option in this case. Perhaps getting it from a streaming site would be an option…
I hope someone here can help with advice! Or perhaps even record these movies…

*EDIT* January 24th:
All issues have been figured out and I got the first one, check out the new post from January 24 for the scenes from the first movie.
–
You can find the answers I got in the forum itself as I don’t want the made this post too long.
Well, I really hope that they will air all these 8 movies, especially the ones with female scuba content off course….
First of all thanks to the guy who recommended me a video from this TV show and also to Scuba Snooper who uploaded a video from it on youtube!
I asked for the title of the untitled video and not only got the title but the link for the whole episode!
Couldn’t ask for anything more….. 🙂
I checked the whole episode and found a lot more interesting scenes, so I decided to make my own version with all the female scuba scenes below and above the surface.
But enough text for now, let’s start with some pictures:
Preview:
There she is our frogwoman!
….what is going on here? 😉
Scuba fight! From her perspective!
Can she win against the evil frogman?

And here is the video:
–
So, I don’t understand Hungarian (surprise!)…but from what I understand of the episode so far…some villains are searching in that lake for treasure.
One of the evil guys turns against the other one and drowns him as he finds something (a rather disappointing scene).
The dead frogman gets found by the police. For some reason, the TV show’s lead actress gets her hands on his wetsuit and starts wearing that men’s suit.
We can clearly see that it doesn’t fit her very well as she is surprised by that guy. Logically it’s pretty loose. (DAMN!)
One of the good guys has to help the bad guys in recovering the treasure (the guy in the full-face scuba mask).
They decide to get rid of him and close the valve so he doesn’t get any oxygen while being trapped underwater!
Lucky for him our frogwoman shows up just in time.
But she has to fight off the evil guy in the red wetsuit first. As she is a trained martial arts expert…she uses her elbow to hit him right in the face, seemingly breaking his nose.
–
Of course, there are some minus points. Her wetsuit is way too loose, the visibility is rather bad, and the a language problem. A shame the villainess doesn’t dive at the end and is only be seen exiting the water in her blue wetsuit very early on. Would have been great to have the two frogwomen fighting against each other at the end of the episode.
But this episode has a LOT to offer! Some great vintage wetsuits and nice diving scenes. Also, I like how the villains try to drown that guy, a really hideous way….
The highlight is of course the scuba fight where our frogwoman has to face the evil guy in the red wetsuit! It could have been longer, but I really like the intensity. Filming through her scuba mask for a second or two was an awesome idea! Don’t know why that wasn’t done more often.
Also, it’s great that she let out some “grunting” noises to illustrate the intensity of the fight as she has to defend herself against his scuba knife.

Guess you may wanna know from which TV show and episode this is? Here you go:
This movie is rated REALLY bad on IMDB, but it actually has some nice scuba and wetsuit scenes!
I found it on my older lists, but have forgotten to make a post for it. A nice blog visitor recommended it to me in the last months, so now you all can enjoy it! Thanks for that!
I made a short(er) version of the video with all the scuba scenes in it. Looks like it can stay on Youtube like that.
You can find a longer cut down below that shows what happens to the girl that stays on the boat that offers some more footage of the wetsuited frogwoman on board as well.
Preview:
Ready to dive!
Wow….
They are not alone down there! Evil frogmen incoming!
Bondage games?
Cutting an air hose!
Damsel in distress! The evil sea monster attacks!

And the longer cut on google drive (slightly over 7 minutes):
Ok folks, time to make a BIG, juicy post about a new movie that deserves it! I am sure this will be one of the longest posts I made on this blog.
You all should know Deep Blue Sea (1999), certainly one of the best shark movies with a big budget (60 million $….and that was 20 years ago).
Then in 2018, there was a successor with a tiny budget, practically the same plot…..but it wasn’t good. In fact, it was quite horrible. It had a short and uninteresting scuba scene.
This June I posted about the trailer for Deep Blue Sea 3. It was promising as it had quite a lot of scuba content and the female lead had some scuba scenes as well.
This week the movie was actually released and I watched it in the hope of being entertained and, of course, to find some good scuba scenes.
Deep Blue Sea 3 has an estimated budget of 5 million $. Certainly not an A-list movie.
I don’t know if they planned (before Covid) to release it on cinema screens, but I guess not, especially after the 2nd one was a disappointment.
Even after watching the trailer….I certainly didn’t expect to get HYPED like this 🙂
–
The setting is already nice with a tiny island that slowly gets swallowed by the ocean due to climate change. Even some parts are made by CGI, a pretty impressive setting for that limited budget.
Tania Raymonde, the lead actress, looked already familiar to me in the trailer, but I didn’t know for sure. After a check on IMDB, I knew for certain: Actually, I know her since the start of her acting career as she had a small role in “Malcolm in the middle” in the early 2000s. She was also in “Lost” and “Goliath”.
After 90 seconds she appears in the movie in a black, smoothskin shorty…. and ….my eyebrows…. moved up already. 😉
Preview – scenes from before AND after her first dive in the movie:
After her first dive of the movie…
…. Tania is still…

And here is the video – scenes from before AND after her first dive in the movie:
If I would post all the scenes of her scuba diving …and/or …wearing sexy wetsuits/bikinis throughout the movie it would practically be half the movie 😉
Here is a selection of her outfits that she wears both underwater and above the surface :
Smoothskin wetsuit (shorty)
full wetsuit
Bikini
Wetsuit(?) (shorty)

The ultimate HIGHLIGHT of the movie is around minute 70.
[small SPOILERS ahead!]
The bad guys have placed an underwater mine that would not only kill the sharks but also sink the (artificial) island.
So, Tania gets into scuba gear once again and wants to defuse the mine. But the villain has sent a diver after her to stop her!
And what followed…let my lower jar drop… (+other things happened as well).
(*EDIT January 2022*: Now on Google Drive since it is suddenly not welcome anymore on YouTube)

Over the years I have seen quite a lot of scuba fights. Some were good, others were bad.
But DAMN! THIS is how you make a scuba fight!!!!!
Ok, there are things you can improve here….but SO many things are done realllllly good:
– It’s a little weird that he doesn’t use the speargun that he still had as the villain sends him after her. He also doesn’t have a knife, or he doesn’t wanna use it. And he also fails to use the element of surprise. She was fully focused on the mine, so he could have sneaked up from behind her and ripped her mask off, stabbed her, cut her air hose etc.. Maybe he was too incompetent, he underestimated her… or he just wanted to have a real challenge instead of a “dishonorable” kill.
– The whole time you hear her breathing sounds from that FFM. It’s thrilling to hear both of them grunting and moaning as the fight goes on. You can really HEAR the struggle! A pretty rare thing when it comes to underwater fights.
– Tania really fights back! She is not the easy victim he may suspect. I love how she tries EVERYTHING: She attacks him with her knife, reaches for his mouthpiece, beats against his mask, claws into his hand, uses her elbow to hit him as he is behind her. Pretty sure I have never seen so many different moves from a frogwoman in a scuba fight! Love the fight choreography here! Often the bad guys (try to) yank out the mouthpiece of a frogwoman to drown her and that’s it. Tania has an FFM, so he can’t do that. She struggles frantically to keep the mask on as he is trying to yank it away from her forcibly.
– The whole struggle as he yanks on her mask…..is really awesome! A verrrry intense scene! A close-up of his hand yanking on her mask would have been great, but that’s only a minor issue. My slightly bigger issue is that the white shark rescues her a little too early 😉
Would have loved to see her struggling for some time without the mask, while her mask would be spitting her precious air. However, it’s great that he did manage to rip that mask off after all the struggle. The evil frogman had no luck after he finally managed to overpower her, he had a BIG advantage…..he got eaten… 😆
This scuba fight is one of the very best in my opinion. Certainly in my TOP 5 of all time!
It’s great that we still get fights like this one! I guess I know at least 95% of the good ones….so I am VERY happy about the new material! 🙂
Fun fact with some spoilers about the ending of the movie, don’t read it if you haven’t seen the whole movie!
Spoiler title
Actually, all the women survive…and all the men get eaten/killed during the movie
I guess some trolls and other sorts of morons think that this movie is a feministic movie against men …and thereby part of a feministic worldwide conspiracy 😆

This one is rather….different but offers a lot in terms of scuba peril.
This is not my upload this time, I simply provide the link. Normally I edit some scenes together, but this wouldn’t make much sense in this case. 😉
Story:
A family (incl. 2 hot daughters) arrives at a lake where they take a little diving trip.
As they emerge from the water….something is wrong….VERY wrong.
Preview:
The two sisters getting ready to dive!
Something is WRONG!
What is going on here?!

And here is the video (for adults only):
(don’t let yourself be scared off by that thumbnail image…the movie is really good actually!)
–
[SPOILERS ahead, watch the movie first!]
Ok, I admit this scenario isn’t completely new, have seen it in two movies so far actually…..BUT… this short movie handles it really well!
The horror gets real as the family members start to turn on each other. They know, the only air left to breathe is in their scuba tanks, so each of them only thinks of themself.
How can I survive just a little longer? Their most primitive survival instincts take over and they are willing to do everything to steal each other’s air supply.
I have to say…I really enjoyed seeing them fighting against each other like that. Especially as they try to steal each other regulators 😉
Of course, it would have been nice to actually see them diving beforehand, but I guess the budget for this one was really limited.
I’m not too happy about the ending as the grandma “speared” the last survivor of that family. Somehow funny, but not exactly realistic to nail her against the wall like that….and I would have liked to see her fighting over the last air tanks against some other folks.
But ok, after all… they are all doomed anyway…
One problem I got with this one is that often the air on these tanks isn’t turned on …or the tank is empty even it isn’t supposed to be. Because quite often you don’t hear the normal “hissing” sounds that these regulators make above the surface.
This odd scene from a Russian movie (tv show?) shows how much you can do wrong when you go on a scuba dive!
I don’t understand the Russian audio but clearly, the woman never dove before and the guy has some experience with scuba diving.
Let’s start with some preview pictures:
He helps her with the gear 😉
On their dive some things go….
….terribly wrong!

–
And here is the video:
–
Oh man! These two do a LOT of things that you shouldn’t do while diving! 😉
Her excuse may be the little to no experience that she has. A fine example of why you shouldn’t dive without a proper scuba certificate!
She gets a panic attack and accidentally rips out his regulator, he should now just retrieve his regulator and the situation could be under control again.
But he grabs the regulator of the panicking frogwoman….what a disaster move!
These two have 4 working regulators in total…but what do they do? Use only 1(!) of them! Oh man…..
Of course, pulling out her regulator makes things worse and she heads to the surface….way too fast!
These two can be happy that they are still alive. 😆
