History Main / ThoseWackyNazis

* ''TheLegendOfKoizumi'' has Nazis as the main villains. It turns out they all survived, including Hitler, Mengele, and ''[[MadArtist Wagner]]''. They live on their moon base, travel to Earth in classic [=UFOs=], and have a giant cannon capable of launching meteor-bullets that hit with the force of a nuclear weapon. Earth's only hope? [[MundaneMadeAwesome Beat them in a]] [[SeriousBusiness mahjong tournament]].

* Colonel Erhardt in ''ToBeOrNotToBe'' is a ridiculous buffoon, but is also extremely dangerous.

* ''InglouriousBasterds'' is basically a deconstructor fleet of this entire article. Most of the archetypes are there.

* Dr. Christian Szell from ''MarathonMan'' is a perfect example of the torture master and the sadist. He is upset that thus far he has only been referred to cryptically and in passing. He wants to ask you a question. "Is it safe?"
* Tarantino's ''GrindHouse'' features the mock trailer for ''Werewolf women of the SS'' with Udo Kier as a secret project leader creating... oh well, I don't want to spoil it for you.
* Several Greek films set during WWII present Nazis that fall under this trope. In most cases the German officers are presented as a combination of the [[CulturedWarrior "cultured" one]] with the ObstructiveBureaucrat that yells "Heil Hitler" every chance he gets, even when drinking a glass of water. Examples similar to the "look how evil I am" SS-Standartenführer seen in ''IndianaJonesAndTheLastCrusade'' and Hans Muller (played by Klaus Kinski) in Five For Hell (1969) are not rare either. A notable example is the film Ipolochagos Natassa (Lieutenant Natassa, aka Battlefield Constantinople), where SS Captain Max (played by Kostas Karras) is introduced not only as the [[CulturedWarrior "cultured" one]] and ObstructiveBureaucrat, but one that has personal story with the heroine before the war. Naturally, the most evil ones wear the black Allgemeine-SS uniform, which maybe fits under the GoodColorsEvilColors trope.
* Max in ''{{Bent}}'' is taken into a concentration camp by the Nazis, and mistakenly thought pretending to be Jewish would make him be treated better.

* ''JackbootsOnWhitehall'' has ThoseWackyNazis [[SuperMarioNation scaled down to 1/6 size]].

* In ''AlphaDog'', Jake Mazursky and his girlfriend are shown to have Neo-Nazi tattoos, the girlfriend does a Nazi salute, and Jake has a huge poster of Hitler at a rally hanging in his kitchen. Neither of them is really villified, however. Ironically, [[BoomerangBigot Jake's also Jewish]].

* The villians in ''Film/EvilEaster3:TheFinalEaster'' embodies mutliple stereotypes of Nazis:

** It may have [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar sn

* In ''Series/BreakingBad'', Todd's uncle Jack runs a group of neo-nazis who are often used as hitmen.

** It may have [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar snuck in]] a time or two in the first two seasons, but from the third season on, he explicitly referred to Megabyte as "Mein Führer", with everything the title entails.
* [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Daffy Duck]] in the wartime short [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lNbXkSlZ4k Daffy the Commando]] with their own take on a [[HogansHeroes Schultz]].
* The old [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Merrie Melodies]] WWII short "Russian Rhapsody" has der Fuhrer himself fly a plane to Moscow to bomb it but gets foiled by Russian gremlins. At the end, after crashing, he declares: "Nazis is the craaaziest peoples!"
* In the fourth season of ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'', the Nazis bring Rusty a dog who is the reincarnation of Hitler, asking him to clone Hitler back to human form.
-->'''Doc Venture:''' Clone Hitler, that's all you nazis ever want to do!
* In one episode of HeyArnold, Grampa tells the story of how, during his days as a soldier in World War II, he was caught by a Nazi panzer division while looking for a place to dump some bad meet. [[NoSwastikas In addition to having smiley faces in place of swastikas]], the CO of the division uses [[IKnowYouKnowIKnow highly convoluted]] logic to decide that Phil's earlier warning ("Don't! It's bad meat!") to mean that the meat is good. Phil recognizes that his best hope for survival is letting the CO think he's the smarter of the two. The result is the Nazis becoming sick from food poisoning.

* Neo-Nazis and other racial nationalist groups. Some of the more colorful examples include:
** The Iranian [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SUMKA SUMKA]], led by [[http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=Davud%20Monshizadeh&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi&biw=1280&bih=896 this guy]].
** Mongolian groups such as [[http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/aug/02/mongolia-far-right White Swastika]].
** In France, this trope's often equated with the ''Front National'' during the time of current leader Marine le Pen's father. Whether it still is now [[RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement is the subject of much fierce debate]].
** In Hungary, you've got ''Jobbik'', who've been described as following the footsteps of the WorldWarII-era Arrow Cross Party (the "Hungarian Nazis").
** Russia has a ''pro-homosexual'' neo-Nazi group. It's called the [[http://www.vice.com/read/meet-russias-gay-aryan-skinheads-finally-bringing-homosexuality-to-the-neo-nazi-world Gay Aryan National Socialists]].
* Johann Hari has a [[http://www.anglican-mainstream.net/2009/06/29/the-strange-unexplored-overlap-between-homosexuality-and-fascism/ fascinating article]] listing a remarkable number of modern fascist racial supremacist movements rife with CampGay and ManlyGay guys ''in their leadership'' and tracing their legacy all the way back to Ernst Rohm and even "Rohm's boy" Hitler himself (although circumstantial evidence concerning Hitler's sexual proclivities is somewhat thin and inconclusive).

* On one episode of ''Series/{{Seinfeld}}'', George and Jerry pretend to be "O'Brien" and "Murphy" so that they can get a limo from the airport. On the way there, they pick up two fans of O'Brien, and find out that O'Brien is actually the Neo-Nazi leader of the Aryan Union, who believes that Jews are trying to take over the world using blacks to push drugs.

The sheer use of them as antagonists practically makes them an arguable standout example of TheUsualAdversaries. Nazis are also one of the most well-known examples of {{Politically Incorrect Villain}}s. If people from the Nazi period are cast as protagonists instead, see NaziProtagonist. These may or may not be {{Villain Protagonist}}s as well.

** In France, this trope's often equated with the ''Front Nationale'' during the time of current leader Marine le Pen's father. Whether it still is now [[RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement is the subject of much fierce debate]].

* Possibly an UrExample: In 1939, some Nazi leaders denounced the popular music-hall song [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lambeth_Walk "The Lambeth Walk"]] as "Jewish mischief and animalistic hopping." So Charles Ridley of the British Ministry of Information took some footage of Nazi troops from Film/TriumphOfTheWill and [[OlderThanTheyThink remixed it to make it look like they were dancing]] to (you guessed it) the Lambeth Walk. It does indeed make them look pretty wacky. Comics historian Creator/MarkEvanier remarks, "It is said the film was shown for Joseph Goebbels and he exploded and ran screaming from the room in anger. If so, that alone was reason enough to make it." You can watch it on his blog [[http://www.newsfromme.com/archives/2011_11_12.html#021604 here]].

* Papieren, bitte! - "Papers, please", usually expressed in a ''very'' commanding tone.

* In AndrewVachss' ''Burke'' books, neo-Nazis are recurring antagonists and occasional partners in an EnemyMine situation, although how important they are runs the gamut.

* ''KamenRider'' had ''Shocker'', a Cobra-like NebulousEvilOrganization of Neo-Nazi terrorists, and its many regrouped and renamed successor organizations. Strangely, only one German member, Colonel Zol, was ever seen.
** ''KamenRiderX'' gives us the magnificence that is [[http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee121/Kainsword17/monsters02/StarfishHitler.jpg Hitode Hitler]], meaning "[[PunnyName starfish Hitler]]".

** Ironically, the grammatically correct form "Gott ''im'' Himmel" is never heard outside Germany.

* Donnerwetter! – "Thunderstorm!" (lit: thunder-weather) Expression of surprise and/or frustration and/or anger according to tone.[[note]]Strictly speaking, "Zum Donnerwetter!" (to a thunderstorm) is the correct term when used in anger, but the "zum" can generally be dropped if desired.[[/note]]

* Schweinhund - translated "pig dog". Might also be a compliment for especially resilient people.

* ''Film/{{Goldfinger}}''. While Goldfinger's German accent and reaction to Nazi gold lead many fans to assume Nazi roots, the character is specifically described as a Soviet agent in the book. Ironically, the actor Gert Frobe was a member of the Nazi party, causing the film to be banned in Israel until after his death, when it was discovered that he used his position to save a family of Jews, like a mini-[[SchindlersList Schindler]].
** The German accent is an illusion. Gert Frobe didn't speak a word of English and had to be dubbed by English actor Michael Collins (Not to be confused with the Irish patriot [[MichaelCollins Michael Collins]] who was played by LiamNeeson...who also played Oskar [[SchindlersList Schindler]]). Frobe was such a good actor that the dub is completely unnoticeable.

* The villians in ''Film/EvilEaster3:TheFinalEaster''

* TheThreeStooges short ''[[{{Pun}} You Nazty Spy!]]'' is the UrExample, though Charlie Chaplin's ''TheGreatDictator'' is quite possibly the TropeMaker.

* The British National Party and English Defence League in Britain.

Before we get on with the list, we also suggest you take a look at NaziGermany, AdolfHitler ([[CaptainObvious closely associated with Nazis]]), WorldWarII, {{Ghostapo}}, and StupidJetpackHitler.

* In Ian Fleming's ''Moonraker'', Hugo Drax is the classic cold-war era fictional neo-Nazi. (The movie gives him an obsession with a race of perfect physical specimens, but eliminates all specific reference to Germany or the N.A.S.D.P.)

* GeorgeMacDonaldFraser occasionally mentions German ex-prisoners of war in his McAuslan stories set in post-war North Africa. For a while, his batman - soldier/servant - was a German PoW trusted to do this work for British officers. He is described as a huge shaven headed Prussian, a man who kept his officer's uniform impeccably tidy, who McDonaldFraser found one day looking thoughtfully at his Scottish highland dress uniform, with an expression on his face that clearly said "Next time, Scotsman."
