Weekly Blend Interview: Uwe Boll

There’s probably no name more hated and feared when it comes to movies than Uwe Boll. The director has taken fan-favorite video game franchises like Bloodrayne and Alone in the Dark and wound up with listless film adaptations. Still, the director keeps getting the rights to big franchises and big-named actors to put in his movies. Boll chatted with us about his upcoming film In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, the problems with his previous movies (as he sees them), and even that pesky rumor about making movies that are intentionally bad in order to take advantage of German tax laws. The transcript below just doesn’t capture the weight of how Boll says some of these things, so take time to listen to this Special Edition of our Weekly Blend Audio Show as we interview Uwe Boll.
