Nazi Horror Cinema

[stonemint]

There is a whole genre of Nazi Horror movies, from very good to (mostly) bad. I am trying to focus on the color ones, and not the grade-Z "I Saved Hitler's Brain" so-bad-its-good dreck. If you are aware of any good ones not on this list, please add to the thread.

This one I just saw recently, and is actually good. It involves a group of modern-day mercenaries sent by a corporation to investigate an (not-so) abandoned Nazi bunker: "Outpost" (2007):

Next is "The Bunker" (2005). This is NOT the Hopkins as Hitler movie.
A low-budget Brit movie, it involves German soldiers trapped in a Bunker that was the site of a former massacre:

This is a Nazi Zombie movie coming out this summer, involving a combined US-Finnish attack on German soldiers who just won't die: Stone's War

I haven't seen this in 25 years, but recall it being very good. It was Michael (Miami Vice) Mann's first movie, and starred Jurgen Prochnow and Scott Glenn as Nazi soldiers dealing with an evil force in a Keep in Romania in 1943. I recall the advisor was Brian L. Davis:

Deathship with George Kennedy--saw it 30 years ago, but I think it was not so good:

Related to movies (more and more, so as movies are based on comics these days) there was in the early 70's a DC comic called "WIERD WAR" which featured various short stories (both old reprints, but usually brand new) of supernatural happenings in a war time setting. As you can imagine, Nazis were predominantly featured.

I still remember the one with a French WWI soldiers' horrific account of a fellow soldier(with a goatee) who sadistically enjoyed killing the Bosch goring them with his bayonet in the trenches. Finally when he could kill a young German private named Hitler he let him go, and then the French comrade saw he had horns and a tail(along with a goatee) before the Devil in a French uniform dissapeared laughing hysterically--The Devil saved Hitler for greater things.

Another was the U-Boat and its crew doomed to relive an evil day torpedoing a medical ship and then getting torpeded in return over and over for eternity

Some of the art was exceptional... Joe Kubert of Tarzan fame. Ralf Nino of the Philipines also.

Dont forget the Dracula comics,
Dracula would reminice on either killing nazis , drinking their blood with ironic comments on "their fine Aryan blood." Then the dead nazi s would rise again and attack their Kameraden.

I still have a bunch of em stored away.

Ah yes Weird War Tales. About a month ago I bought 4 or 5 of these to read again.

What about the movie "Sole Survivor" made for TV in 1970. It was based on the Lady Be Good -- the bomber that crashed in the Sahara and not found until 1959. In this one Richard Bashart and William Shatner are in it. It is very cool about the ghosts
playing baseball to pass the time until someone finds their bodies and lays them to rest. Also a twightlight zone episode was based on the same incident.

I remember this movie, for me it was really bad. The editing of the movie was eractic all the way and what about the black uniformed SS soldiers with pre-war backpacks and transitional helmets!!!!!!

There are two episodes of The Twiligth Zone in which I remember very well, the first one is about an SS camp comandat returns after the war from South America to visit his old concentration camp, only to be hunted by the last prisioner he killed before escaping.
The other is about an passenger in a cruise ship during WW2 who wake up with amnesia and a U-Boat captain hat in his room, with a very "heavy" filling that something bad is goin to happen, only to find out and see by himself that he is the U-boat captain sinking the ship, after the ship is down the history reapeats it self over and over again.

And how about Sci Fi channel "original" movie SS Doomtrooper or something similar, is sooooooooo bad I cant pass over 5 minutes on it.
