I nearly vomited when I read all the crap-tacular movies he has lined up. I think its a sign of the apocolypse...

No mention of Uwe Boll is complete without an explanation of why he is such a prolific director. Disturbing.

Boll's movies suck terribly, yes...



But worst director ever?



Surely none of you have ever had to live through an un-MSTed Coleman Francis movie. Certainly you've never had to pull your broken body out of the burning wreckage that is Skydivers. Most assuredly you've never measured pints of your own blood collected from the walls which you bashed your head against trying to outlast the Beast of Yucca Flats. And most definitely you've never had to resist all urges to pull your own guillotine switch while suffering through Night Train to Mundo Fine ("Red Zone Cuba").



In a tiny defense of Uwe Boll, at least he's ambitious. He churns out crap with all of that ambition but still that's something I could never say for a single frame of a Coleman Francis movie.



So...get back to me after reverifying that, k?

If he's the worst director in history, then he must he the most brilliant self marketing expert know to mankind.

How on earth did he get all these projects when 100% them is a flop!?! ANCIENT CHINESE SECRET!!!!

Guys, Uwe Boll makes his career off making flops, and I don't mean that sarcastically. Up until recently, Germany had a tax loophole where you could get a huge tax credit for investing money in a failed movie. Literally, the only way for Boll to fail would be if he were to succeed.

I have not seen "Alone in the Dark" but I saw Doom and I do not know how it can get much worse then that.

The problem is no matter how bad his movies are people still go to see them, stop SEEING THESE MOVIES! He wont get contracts if no one watchted them. And I know that gamers are guilty of this, even if they hate him, they still go like idiots. Wait till it comes out on video to watch it. They dont care what you thought of the movie, you still bought the ticket...

Wait for video?! Uwe Boll films are not even worth waiting for video, hell, they are barely worth downloading...

Actually, I'm looking forward to the Postal movie. The games are trashy, violent, and completely plot free. Really, there's no way he can screw it up!

I don't know about anyone else, but everytime I see that picture of Uwe giving the thumbs up, I lose it.
