Bloodrayne Movie Poster
Two updates for Uwe Boll's Bloodrayne
in a single week? We must be losing our minds. Through out the course of
this film we have repeatedly pointed out that the only thing we found interesting
in this game adaptation was that it starred a horny Kristanna Loken [Terminator
3]. However, now we hear that the sex scene in the film was actually
somewhat awkward, taking away our only reason to even go see the film.
Is Bloodrayne that bad? Well, it is supposedly a few notches above
Alone in the Dark,
which isn't saying much.
Bloodrayne Review
It looks like the entire crew from the site AICN
were able to get some alone time together and head off to see a screening
of Bloodrayne with director Uwe Boll amongst the audience. Though they admit
that Uwe Boll is one happening guy, his films still bite the big one.
Far superior to THE FOG, yet still reeking of sub-made for TV, but with tits and blood. This is my first theatrical experience with Dr. Boll, and fittingly enough he was there to greet me at the theater.
I’m told that BLOODRAYNE the videogame involved Rayne fighting Nazis. Frankly, that’s just way more cool than Uwe’s pained recreation of a some sketchy fantasy period which is populated by actors wildly out of their depth and time. Take Michael Madsen in this. He looks, talks and acts like he should have a fedora and a cigarette – yet there he is with a sword. Casting hasn’t been this bad since John Wayne played Genghis Khan.
We were told by Uwe and Will that Michael was drunk everyday, that Ben Kingsley – having suffered through Madsen on SPECIES – refused to shoot scenes with him. But ya know what, the problem here is that Uwe honestly feels that it doesn’t matter which actor you put in, so long as they have a recognizable name that appeals to foreign investors. In fact, to the festival crowd, he advised them that casting your movie at the last minute, suddenly you are able to get great names with holes in their schedule.
The cast of BLOODRAYNE only began to be cast a mere Two Weeks prior to cameras rolling. Meaning they really had no time for weapons training, no time for proper choreography. These were just cattle being led to the cinematic slaughter.
Ouch! This is one of those painful films that you
see coming long before it hits... kind of like blue balls [they exist!].
Bloodrayne comes to theatrs on January 6th, 2006.
