Not really sure why this is in the ' Modern Horror Movies' section but yeah i'm a big film fan and some of those that i love are war films. so ones i really like (for the weirdest reason):
All Quiet on the Eastern Front: This really set the bar for the horro fil - i really cannot imagine the impact it had on audiences in the 30's. It fucking horrible and hard hitting - the scene with the german soldier spending the night in the fox hole with the guy he killed is harrowing. I love Saving Private Ryan but watch this first and reassess.
Sands of Iwo Jimo: Ok I always though this as a macho pro america flick from my chilhood memories but it far surpasses this. Great film - great depiction of the futility of war and it has judo in it too..
The Eagle has Landed: Ok Donald Suderland as the Irish guy - thats it and i love it..
Where Eagles Dare: Another childhood fave. Clint steals the show to a very entertaining Richard Buton.
