Both valid points with which I agree. I was trying to broaden the definition to see what films would possibly count because, as you said, there aren't many horror films set during World War II. Away from that war, there are movies like R-Point, Jacob's Ladder, and Ravenous, which I really like.

It's possible to argue that most war movies contain a certain amount of horror because of the nature of war and the amount of death and suffering within, but that doesn't specifically classify them as horror films.

Back to the Second World War, there is also Michael Mann's The Keep, which I haven't seen for a long time but remember finding both enjoyable and impressive.
