Hitler Liked 3-D Movies Too!

If you’re convinced that 3D is the work of the devil, then you might really think so after two 3D movies shot by the Third Reich have been unearthed.

Australian director Philippe Mora was researching Nazi propaganda films for an upcoming documentary when he found the two 30-minute movies known as “raum films” — or space films. But until now no one knew that these films were shot in 3D.

“The films are shot on 35mm — apparently with a prism in front of two lenses,” Mora told Variety.

The movie “So Real You Can Touch It” is a musical set at a carnival and features scenes of barbecuing meat, while the second called “Six Girls Roll into Weekend” shows “UFA studio starlets living it up”.

“The quality of the films is fantastic. The Nazis were obsessed with recording everything and every single image was controlled — it was all part of how they gained control of the country and its people,” Mora said.

Both films were shot in 1936 and predate Hollywood’s 3D “golden age” by 20 years.

We can’t wait to see the Hitler reaction video for this one!
