The horrors of war
by Mighty_Emperor | created - 16 Oct 2011 | updated - 3 weeks ago | PublicA mash-up of war and horror films. Here we'll deal with soldiers confronting some kind of supernatural horror.
War by its very nature is horrific so adding a horror element in can help throw this into greater contrast or the horror can act as a metaphor - for the pointless of the whole venture or for man's struggle against overwhelming odds. Or it could just be an easy excuse to blow the crap out of a bunch of monsters with some serious firepower, and there is nothing wrong with that (except, as a strategy, it is usually flawed).
See also: My Nazi zombie list, they are usually relics of the war so often don't count here, and Nazi occult films for their more paranormal shenanigans.
