10 Biggest Video Game Movie Flops
4. Bloodrayne
Budget: $25 million
US Box Office: $2,405,420
Despite an all-slumming cast that includes Michelle Rodriguez, Ben Kingsley and Michael Madsen, Bloodrayne is one of Uwe Boll’s least enjoyable films, a soulless mess slung together from a first draft screenplay where none of the actors appear to be having a good time.
According to Madsen, his first day on set called for a riding scene but the “crazy Romanian horses” instead ran into a tree and threw him into a water tank.
That was just the beginning: Madsen also got sick from the bad food, lost 12 pounds and on one occasion had to dive into a river in the middle of the Romanian jungle after being attacked by bees. To top it all, he didn’t even care for the finished film.
“Bloodrayne was an abomination,” he says. “It’s a horrifying and preposterous movie.”
What The Critics Said: “Ghastly bad.” (Entertainment Weekly)
