Arrow in the Head Interviews Uwe Boll
Got a chance
to machine gun a couple of questions German Director, Uwe Boll’s way
about his upcoming, hot vamp chick (Played by Kristanna Loken) kicking ass opus;
BLOODRAYNE
(hitting the US screens on January 6 2006 and the Canuck screens in February). And
here’s what Mr. Boll fired back at me with his Magnum. Let the showdown begin!
What was it
about the BloodRayne property that made you think it would make for a
commercially viable film?
I loved the character and the
fact that she suffers – if she gets no blood.
Now that
you’ve wrapped the film, did Kristanna Loken pull off the role physically
and emotionally in your opinion?
Absolutely. She is really
strong
How
different is BloodRayne visually when compared to your other films? What
were you going for?
It is dark like all my movies
– but also very serious – a real tragedy
Was the
screenplay by
Guinevere Turner altered or changed much during
the shoot?
Minimal –
based on locations etc.
Who edited
the film and how present were you during the process?
David Richardson (he cut all
my movies , only ALONE IN THE DARK had another editor) – I was there the
whole time
How gory and
sexy will the theatrical cut be?
Very very hard. An edgy R
Will there
be a Director’s Cut on DVD? If so what can we expect from it?
Yes – we will have an NC 17
version with 25 more gore effects
I once read
a quote from you saying “I will never do a film with Nazis in it”; was that
one of the reasons as to why Nazis were absent from the movie?
That quote was not from me.
There a too many Uwe Bolls on the net….But we wanted to tell the
BLOODRAYNE roots here, the prequel – to explain where she came from
If a sequel
would happen, would you consider doing it with Nazis as BloodRayne’s foes?
Absolutely – but only in part
3. Part 2 is in the WILD WEST
What’s the
status of Dungeon Siege (In the Name of the King); will it still be released
in two parts? When can we expect it in North America?
One 145 minutes Movie and a
180 Minutes DVD version. DECEMBER 1 – 2006
Is it safe
to say that HUNTER THE RECKONING will be your next film?
No. We just made the decision;
FAR CRY, POSTAL and my horror movie SEED are the next ones.
Do you think
that the recent change in the German fund structure will affect your career
as a Producer/Director one way or another?
Who knows – right now we have
money for 5 more movies. Hollywood needs product now where a lot of the
German funds are dead. I survived everything so far.
What’s Uwe
Boll gonna do for X-Mas?
Family and Friends visiting!
