Who is the guy and why do you guys hate him so much.
He's a hack movie director.
''Movies directed by Boll have performed modestly to poorly at the box office in the United States.
House of the Dead (budget: $12 million) broke $5.73 million on opening weekend,
[4] Alone in the Dark (budget: $20 million) made over $5.1 million,
[5] and
BloodRayne (budget: $25 million) topped $2.42 million.
[6]''
The only reason he's still making movies is because he finances his movies in Germany, and the country covers the entire cost as a tax writeoff. It's fucking ridiculous.
When
Wired published a negative review of
Postal,Boll responded with an e-mail claiming that the critic "(didn't)understand anything about movies and that you are a untalented wannabee filmmaker with no balls and no understanding what POSTAL is. youdont
[sic]see courage because you are nothing. and no go to your mum and fuck her...because she cooks for you now since 30 years ..so she deserves it"
[22]. Boll claims that this angry email was sparked not by the review, but because the
Wired editor told Boll in person that the editor loved the movie, then turned around and published a negative review.
