Amazon.com essential video
An obvious attempt to cash in on the success of Jaws, this 1977 thriller was also based on a bestseller by Peter Benchley, and it features a memorable performance by Robert Shaw (the doomed shark hunter in Jaws) in one of the last roles of his career. Looking very tanned and healthy, Nick Nolte and Jacqueline Bisset play a young couple enjoying a tropical vacation who discover a glass ampoule while scuba diving off the coast of Bermuda. It takes a seasoned treasure hunter (Shaw) to identify the ampoule as part of a valuable shipment of World War II morphine lost at sea, coincidentally, atop the even greater treasure of a sunken Spanish galleon. Thus begins a race for drugs and treasure pitting Nolte, Bisset, and Shaw against a ruthless drug lord (Louis Gossett Jr.) who'll do anything--even resort to Haitian voodoo--to get what he wants. It's all rather contrived and exploitative (after all, the movie's best known for Bisset's wet T-shirt scuba-dive), but as escapist entertainment goes it's got some exciting highlights including a moray eel that attacks on cue and... well, uh, Jacqueline Bisset in a wet T-shirt. --Jeff Shannon

LET ME TELL YOU THE ONLY REASON I BOUGHT THIS DVD IS BECAUSE IM A HUGE FAN OF DONNA SUMMER. AND THE THEME FROM THE DEEP IS PERFORMED BY DONNA. A DANCE AND A SLOW VERSION. THIS MOVIE IS MOST WATCHABLE.

"The Deep" was one of the reasons I started diving back in the 80's. Since then I have bought this movie in VHS, DVD and now Blu-Ray. The Dlu-Ray edition is worth the price, with an amazing image quality and nice extras. A must for anyone who loves diving, adventure or Jaqueline Bisset...
Great film but... October 25, 2009
Richard Schulz
I know they now have the Blu Ray version that has the documentary in it, perhaps the one I saw back when it came out on TV to promote the film but this DVD version does not. It has both pan and scan and widescreen but this version is missing two bits of film from the VHS version that I remember. When Treece finds his buddy Kevin he puts his coat over the body and then hugs him which is touching. Later in the underwater climax Nolte uses the suction device's exaust to stun the big black henchman dude to escape but the full scene is missing just like the hugging scene.
This movie needs a full blown remaster to fix everything I would guess but the sales are not there to warrant the money it would take I would imagine.
I also read that there is an extended version that was shown on TV years ago. That should be done as well and I would buy it for sure because I love this movie.
I bought the VHS and two DVD's so far plus I saw the film in the theatre.
