It is the hybris of rationalism to always attack the prophet, the mystic, the god. It is our blasphemy which has made us great, and will sustain us, and which the gods secretly admire in us.

THE BELLY OF THE CITY
A veteran sewer foreman, Tom Hanks, takes the night shift into Cleveland's storm tunnels after something drags a city inspector into the dark. The rookie on his crew, James McAvoy, wants cameras; the retired dredge keeper, Paul Newman, knows the tunnels are older than the pipes; and the safety officer, Mark Harmon, has orders to flood everything by dawn. Between insults, beers and one very bloody workshop, four union men improvise a hunt the city refuses to admit is happening.

three key problem with HOI:
1.) Germany is the country that gets to do stuff.
It's the de facto "protagonist country"
2.) In order for it to reliably do stuff, it has to be cracked or the game ends in 1940
3.) Refusal to grasp with Nazi atrocities makes it implicitly endorse a clean Wehrmacht myth

THE LONG RED MILE
A parasite that wears its hosts like suits has quarantined half the country. A struck-off surgeon who forged his way out of the zone, Robert Downey Jr., has forty-eight hours of clean blood left. A freight pilot grounded for smuggling, Viggo Mortensen, is the only driver willing to cross the burning checkpoints. A disgraced miracle preacher, Eddie Murphy, keeps the crowds off their trail by staging healings. And the singer who woke up with the thing inside her, Janelle Monae, is deciding whose body it gets next.

DEAD WATER
The last floating hospital in the Atlantic, anchored beyond every nation's waters, is where a wanted surgeon, Sandra Bullock, hides the only dose of an extinct vaccine. When the world finds out, a salvage captain commanding a lawless flotilla, Antonio Banderas, surrounds the ship and demands it by dawn. The vessel's dying financier, Anthony Hopkins, forbids surrender, and a disgraced rescue swimmer,
Christian Bale, becomes the crew's only arm - boarding boats in open water while the hull holds.

We avoid things like "this monster is always chaotic evil" because it's bad writing that encourages a smallness of mind, not because it's necessarily* The Monsters Are Marginalized People in Fantasy Clothes
* that said "purge the vampire scum" fiction just seems to end up in antisemitic blood libel
