The world/US is terrible rn. I wanted a comfort movie where I get to watch Nazis be killed. So I’m watching Inglorious Bastards now.
What’s your favorite killing Nazis movie?
Inglourious Basterds, no contest. Second is the Dirty Dozen.
It’s not Nazis, it’s a about a massive phishing conspiracy, but The Beekeeper is about Jason Statham slaughtering his way through it, and it’s sooooo fucking satisfying.
Gotta protect the hive. Lol I’ve seen it before. It was enjoyable
Here are some of my favorites. I’m an older guy so the films may be a bit dated.
The Longest Day - the quintessential D-Day movie starring everyone that was anyone.
The Devil’s Brigade - a film that, in this era of tension between Canada and the USA, shows how we used to stand, fight, and die with each other.
Sink The Bismarck - thrilling sea story about the hunt for the famous Kriegsmarine battleship by the Royal Navy. Only issue is that it characterizes the German Admiral, Gunter Lutjens, as a fervent Nazi. He was actually one of the few officers that didn’t give Hitler the Nazi salute.
Enemy at the Gates - about Vasili Zaitsev, one of the Soviet Union’s top snipers who participated in the battle of Stalingrad. While the romance plot is one hundred percent tacked on unnecessarily, it truly captures the brutality and ruin of urban combat. Also has Ron Pearlman, so goddamn brilliance right there.
No Inglorious Bastards? Interesting.
Was already mentioned a few times so I decided to skip it.
It’s a spoof, but the nazi killing goes hard: Kelly’s Heros
Kung Fury, short, insanely over the top, leans into satirizing the 80s steroid-action movie machismo, just plain fun movie.
Hence the laser raptors…

Also wanted to suggest this one. It’s not inglorious basterds but it’s good.
IRON SKY
Nazis from the dark side of the moon return to Earth in flying saucers to finish the Third Reich.
It is glorious
I couldn’t finish this 🤣. I was like WTF through a lot of it.
I was trying to remember the main title of this but could only recall “nazis from the dark side of the moon” - thanks and seconded.
Inglorious Basterds would be up there for sure.
I’m shocked that no one has mentioned the Rocketeer.
It’s a cult movie about an out-of-work pilot and his mechanic who find a jetpack. They want to use it to try and fly more airshows and get out of debt. But the mob wants it back because they stole it for a Hollywood movie star, who’s secretly a Nazi spy. And the FBI wants it because they want it back to keep it out of the hands of the Nazis. Meanwhile, the dude is just trying his best to survive, and accidentally ends up being a superhero.
It’s such a great movie, if you liked Indiana Jones, you’ll like the Rocketeer.
I saw that in theaters. I had completely forgotten about it until this moment, but I remember the ads and watching it.
Loved that movie as a kid. Completely forgot the Nazi element.
It’s been on my list to watch for ages. Did not know it had Nazis. Might need to move it up
Indiana Jones
The Ministry of ungentlemanly warfare
SAS rogue heros
Are a couple more.
Green Room is a pretty good one
V for vendetta.
Antagonists are not explicitly Nazis, just racist and homophobic authoritarians preaching religous hate against immigrants.
The Dirty Dozen has a very cathartic finale, nearly on the level of the cinema fire from Inglorious Basterds.

Jacky Chan: Armour of God
