10 Worst Uwe Boll Movies Ever

By WhatCulture /

In this day and age, film directors and producers don't get nearly as much recognition as the actors in their films. You get the odd exception to the rule for some of those heavy hitting blockbusters, but if you were to ask people on the street whether they knew Louis Leterrier or Joe Wright, they'd probably draw a blank. You've got four main types of directors in the film making world: the good, the mediocre, the bad and Uwe Boll. The good pop out one blockbuster after another and are usually very well known for their films, the mediocre push out films that aren't as well known and usually have their own fan-base whilst the bad make one or two terrible films and fade into obscurity. Uwe Boll, however, deserves his own little group, as he doesn't just create bad films - he grasps an idea and butchers it until it's unrecognisable. As of 2012, Boll has worked as a producer, director, or writer in 30 films. Of these 30 films, it seems that only his earlier films (pre-2003) were the only ones to receive some positive comments. I'm not saying they were good - oh god no - they were still bad, but not nearly as close to the train-wrecks he worked on later. It seems that when Boll comes up with an original idea - and when I say original I mean not based on a video game and similar to blockbuster films - he can push out - at best - a B-grade movie. However, it seems he decided this wasn't the route he wished to take and went down the video game path, butchering his way through much loved classics. In this article I'll be exploring some of Uwe Boll's worst films...
