10 Most Notorious Uwe Boll Films

Gleefully reveling in its own outrageousness, Postal is the ultimate litmus test for those who prefer sledgehammer satire to subtlety and nuance. Though the funniest movie on the filmmaker’s resume, it more than lives up to its tagline: “Some movies go too far. Others start there.”

Postal opens with two 9/11 hijackers getting cold feet while discussing the number of virgins in the afterlife - is it exactly a hundred or less? If so, how many less? When a call to “Sammy” establishes the figure to be twenty, the pair decide to hightail it to the Bahamas, which is when passengers break in and attempt to wrest control, crashing them into the World Trade Centre. And that’s before the opening credits.

There's just no end to the insanity on display: Verne Troyer (as “Himself”) is sacrificed to a thousand monkeys because of a Biblical prophecy, Boll appears (as “Himself”) to announce that his movies are funded by Nazi gold and it all ends with George Bush and Osama Bin Laden walking away hand in hand while nukes rain down. Even if you don’t find that a laughing matter, you have to admit that movies featuring an American-accented Bin Laden, who won’t drink at the Grind Zero coffee chain because he’s lactose intolerant, are pretty rare.
