More movies like this?


Well, the subject says pretty much. Are there more movies like this? (Alternative history, if the Nazis won the war).

Philadelphia Experiment II comes to mind. Not really good tho.

CSA- The Confederate States of America

is a "mockumentary" about what life would be like if the Confederacy won the Civil War... very interesting.

Interesting, but not well done. That's not a slam on you; I was just a little disappointed with it. A little too comical and unrealistic for such a serious subject, not to mention the poor production values. However, it is worth seeing and enjoyable -- for those interested in counterfactuals (i.e., historical "What Ifs") it is absolutely worth a rent.

Other than that, I'm not familiar with other films like this, but there are PLENTY of examples of alternate history fiction in Star Trek...

I agree, Confederate States of America was not very well done at all. The comedy just didn't work for me but everyone has the right to enjoy what they want and it's always worth at least one viewing to form your own conclusion.

"It Happened Here" is a black and white mocumentary style movie about the Germans crossing the channel and occupying England in WWII. It is available through netflix. It was made by a very young director on an ultra low budget.

Part of the film was censored by the British government. They used real British black shirts (facists) to explain their point of view in one scene. They convicted themselves out of their own mouths about being fools. But the British government apparently thought there might be someone out there stupid enough to believe their nonsense. That scene is restored on the dvd.

In the film most German troops have been withdrawn to fight in Russia and the black shirts (collaborators) are trying to hold onto power against a resurgant underground. The war isn't over and the Americans have finally entered the war but not invaded England yet.

Do you know about "the Man in the High Castle" It has an 8.2 rating on IMDB.
