That's a terrific one -- based on Ira Levin's novel (same guy who wrote "Rosemary's Baby" and "A Kiss Before Dying," by the way). In it, Mengele has cloned Adolf H. many times over, and has planted the kids in very similar home environments (not only in Brazil, I think) to that which produced Der Fuehrer. The idea being that the nature and the nurture being so similar, the odds are good that a new Hitler will arise. The novel is very good science fiction. It dates from the mid- to late '70s.
