OK, so we know that Nazis are the best thing that ever happened to movies, with gratuitous nudity a close second. (Oh, by the way: [Nazi zombies](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0892899/) anyone?) So this month’s feature section is gonna be movies with Nazis. I have some easy ones (_Sound of Music, Raiders, Schindler’s Whatever_, etc.) and a few outliers (_The Occult History of the Third Reich, Hangmen Also Die, Triumph of the Will_). Throwing the floor open for suggestions of movies that MUST be included in such a section. Thanks as always, Dopers. I thank you, and Steven Spielberg thanks you. ---

> [@lissener](#): > > Keep em coming, I have most of those already but I still feel like there’s a lot I overlooked. Make reference to the Youtube parodies of _Das Untergang_. They’re sufficiently spun off the original that they’re a cultural force of their own. ---

Dang, yeah, all good. (No AMX, though; doing Nazis, not NeoNazis. For this display, at any rate.) ---

I see you haven’t added _Enemy at the Gates_ yet…if you do have any thoughts to add that, consider the German film [Stalingrad](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalingrad_(film)) instead. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/movie-nazis/489587.md?page=2)
