Remove these from the count if it's not appropriate. Also, I don't know why this film is in the IMDB bottom 100; it's comfortably better than Alone In The Dark in every area, which in turn is comfortably better than House Of The Dead in every area. And I've seen 100 worse action or horror films than House Of The Dead. By scene Absinthe: 1 (1 stabbed) Rampage: 4 (2 stabbed, 2 eaten, 4 by Loken) She is my friend: 1 (1 stabbed, 1 by Rodriguez) I will not harm you: 2 (2 stabbed, 2 by Loken) Market: 1 (1 eaten, 1 by Loken) Splattered: 1 (1 facesmashed, 1 by Loken) Monastery: 30 (25 stabbed, 4 arrowed, 1 fallen, 6 by Loken, 3 by Madsen, 6 by Rodriguez) Leonid: 14 (7 stabbed, 3 bodies, 3 arrowed, 1 burnt, 3 by Madsen) I will find her: 1 (1 stabbed, 1 by Kingsley) Will you stop throwing things at me: 1 (1 severed head) Brimstone I: 2 (2 stabbed, 1 by Rodriguez) Brimstone II: 25 (24 bodies, 1 arrowed)* Heart: 1 (1 neck broken, 1 by Loken) One way in: 2 (2 stabbed) Ceremony: 16 (15 stabbed, 1 arrowed, 2 by Madsen, 4 by Loken, 1 by Kingsley) Body counts Total: 102 Madsen: 8 Loken: 19 Rodriguez: 8 Kingsley: 2 By kill type Stabbed: 58 Bodies (most of whom would've been stabbed): 27 Arrowed: 9 Neck broken: 1 Severed head: 1 Eaten: 3 Facesmashed: 1 Fallen: 1 Burnt: 1 Pages Uwe Boll MUST have one, or I quit doing counts for this site (blackmail and empty threats are my specialty). House Of The Dead's got a huge count, and he seems to make deathfests with a few well known actors. Also Madsen, Loken and Rodriguez need pages, they've all got kills in multiple other films.

I hated BloodRayne however. Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged JenGe Administrator member is offline Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 1,443 Location: Surfing the internet...

As if I could get rid of you so easily. Of course we will have Boll. He makes films doesn't he? I honestly do not think that he is as bad as people make him out to be. Frankly I enjoyed Alone in the Dark. Great film... no but still entertaining. (It even has an admitted homage to Equilibrium.) I don't have silly biases against Directors for making what other people think are "bad" films. Even if Joel Schumacher put nipples on the batsuit...I don't fuckin' care. Let the man make movies. Flatliners, Lost Boys, Falling Down, Tigerland are some of the best films ever made in my opinion. Boll will have his day as well. Younger, newer directors should never be judged by industry standards. They are but trying to make a name for themselves and learning with each film they make. « Last Edit: Nov 10, 2006, 12:02pm by JenGe » Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged Webmaster: MovieBodyCounts.com | Equilibrium Fansite | JD Foust Designs Wraith Full Member member is offline This Sticker Is Dangerous and Inconvenient, But I Do Love Fig Newtons.

It's not like his movies are much worse than the average Paul WS Anderson film.

The Pacifier Sahara Bewitched The Legend of Zorro I'm sure there are more that I did not bother to see. « Last Edit: Nov 10, 2006, 12:44pm by JenGe » Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged Webmaster: MovieBodyCounts.com | Equilibrium Fansite | JD Foust Designs ronnoc Full Member member is offline Some dumbass at a computer Joined: Sept 2006 Gender: Male Posts: 106 Re: BloodRayne « Reply #5 on Nov 10, 2006, 12:59pm » There are worst directors, but they didn't take classic video games, and muttilate them. Also, he whines about how everyone hates him. The boxing thing was pretty funny though, I especaly liked Rich Kyanka bitching about Uwe cheating. Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged Damnit ronnoc!

He let on like it was a publicity stunt, selected critics who wouldn't win, and then beat the hell out of them. The guy not only has no talent, he seems like a complete dick too. Maybe that's why he's so hated.

Pretty bad, but I think Boll is overrated as a bad director. It's not like his movies are much worse than the average Paul WS Anderson film. Paul WS Anderson has had pretty decent movies, Shopping and Event Horizon were his masterpieces, and both Mortal Kombat and Resident Evil were watchable, i couldnt even sit through Alone In The Dark or Bloodrayne. Also Jen, did you actually sit through Sahara? I felt Sahara was pretty much the closest thing to a modern Indiana Jones movie, we need more movies like that recently. It was pure cheese, but it was enjoyable and fun to watch, i hope they make more movies based after Dirk's adventures.

I felt Sahara was pretty much the closest thing to a modern Indiana Jones movie, we need more movies like that recently. Yes, I did and I hated it (& there are very few films I "hate"). The marketing on that one sold us a pack of lies. They sold it as a modern Indiana Jones flick but it really was political commentary not a "cheese", enjoyable, action, adventure. Romancing the Stone is the closest thing to a modern Indiana Jones film. I agree we need more films like that but to slather it in political commentary is not the way to go. The Transporter was the same for me as well. Great opening....lost it when they took the political "save the people", apologetic "I'm-sorry-we're-doing-an-action-flick-so-let's throw-some-social-relevance-in" Hollywood route.. Excellent foreplay but no orgasm. Other recent flicks I've "Hated..." War of the Worlds King Kong Lost in Translation Sideways Runaway Jury 10 Things I Hate About You Miami Vice (sadly one of my favorite directors) Most directors have these though even my all time favorite director Ridley Scott. I hate Legend. In my opinion one of the worst fantasy flicks ever made. « Last Edit: Nov 10, 2006, 5:59pm by JenGe » Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged Webmaster: MovieBodyCounts.com | Equilibrium Fansite | JD Foust Designs ronnoc Full Member member is offline Some dumbass at a computer Joined: Sept 2006 Gender: Male Posts: 106 Re: BloodRayne « Reply #9 on Nov 10, 2006, 5:59pm » Quote: Quote: Also Jen, did you actually sit through Sahara?

It was nothing really more than a Disney flick that people would accept because his name was attached. Most of his films do nothing at all for me. I don't count Indiana Jones because it really is a Lucas/Spielberg high-bred. I was soo disappointed in Minority Report. There was sooooo much in there that really did not need to be that I just had to read Dick's short story to make sure. I was right. Now I will say this though. There are two films by Spielberg that I do absolute unequivocally love (not counting Indy)...Duel & Munich. « Last Edit: Nov 10, 2006, 6:14pm by JenGe » Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged Webmaster: MovieBodyCounts.com | Equilibrium Fansite | JD Foust Designs wheels128 Full Member member is offline Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 244 Re: BloodRayne « Reply #11 on Nov 11, 2006, 1:38am » The problem with Uwe Boll films is that all he aspires to do is merge video games with B-movies. Thus, he manages to select the worst of bad worlds, and comes out with movies that have a bad script, no character development, a flimsy plot, cheesy camerawork, and a serious suspension of disbelief is required just to watch them. They are still entertaining films though - I've watched House Of The Dead three times (body count coming really soon), BloodRayne three times and I plan on buying every film he ever makes. Why? Boll's films are well-paced, enjoyable crap, and they never get bogged down in slow patches. You laugh at it as opposed to cringing because of it, and for that reason I'll always pick a Boll film over anything tagged "Drama", "Western", "Comedy" or "Independent". The reason everyone hates Uwe Boll is he takes video games, makes them even more mindless, and then removes the fun of giving the player control over what happens.

There are two films by Spielberg that I do absolute unequivocally love (not counting Indy)...Duel & Munich. Spielberg's hit or miss. I think sometimes Spielberg has a tendency to make a really good film and then mess up the ending (eg: War of the Worlds, Minority Report, Munich). I also didn't like ET, I thought it was a ball of fluff, but I like a lot of Disney films so Ithink it's unfair to compare the two. I haven't really seen AI, but I've heard nothing good. He can sometimes become fixated on actors that aren't that good (Haley Joel Osmondt, Tom Cruise) On the other hand, Indy, Schindler's List, and Saving Private Ryan are masterpieces. And I like a lot of the cartoons he produced in the 90s.

I can't hate films like that. The only problem I have with his films is that they stray from the original games. Steven Spielberg however is brilliant. I haven't seen one of his films that I didn't like (War of the worlds was not his best though). Also which King Kong did you hate JenGe?
