NSFW: German Filmmaker Uwe Boll Rants Against Kickstarter

 

With such cinematic masterpieces like PostalRampage and Blubberella to his directorial credit, you’d think German filmmaker Uwe Boll wouldn’t have any trouble at all bankrolling his projects. Turns out you’d be wrong, though I honestly hope this idea had never even crossed your mind. And if you considered it this very moment, I hope it was quickly dismissed as a dumb idea.

It’s this response that has enraged Boll, along with his lackluster Kickstarter campaign for Rampage 3: No Mercy, the third film in a proposed Rampage trilogy. As of this writing, Boll has raised $26,137 of the $55,794 goal necessary to make the film. There’s only three days to go, and the director is pissed.

How pissed? Enough to film back-to-back YouTube videos criticizing those who donated, those who didn’t, and pretty much everyone in Hollywood he believes to be phony and full of themselves.

If you’re a glutton for punishment, you can find the second video here.
