Uwe Boll on Video Game Movies, Boxing His Critics, Success & Failure | Side Scrollers

Uwe Boll is a German filmmaker. He came to prominence during the
2000s for his adaptations of popular video game franchises.
Released theatrically, the films were critical and commercial
failures; his 2005 Alone in the Dark adaptation is considered by
many critics to be one of the worst films ever made. Boll's films
during the 2010s, comprising mostly original projects and
independent movies, received home media releases to better
reviews. After retiring in 2016 to become a restaurateur, Boll
eventually returned to filmmaking in 2022. His films are financed
through his production companies Boll KG and Event Film
Productions. If you're new, consider subscribing. If you'd like
