The ubiquitous 'Cannibal Holocaust' has to be the top of everyone's list!

Although there is none of the white stuff on show, it is very clearly referenced in the dialogue:

Professor Munroe: "It'S NO Wonder they were eaten. Mind you, I wonder who the real cannibals are"
Bob: "It was the savages in the jungle, you idiot"
Professor Munroe: "Blimey! You're right"

If you liked Fury, you should definitely watch Lebanon, a 2009 Israeli film which is entirely set inside a tank during the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. It is superb and I thought it was much better than Fury.

Cold Prey sounds great. Is Sint actually Saint? About Saint Nicolas?

Yes, marauding across the Amsterdam rooftops on his horse.
