On this special interview episode, I had the privilege of speaking with the man, the myth, the BOLL! Director Uwe Boll was gracious enough to sit down and chat with the show regarding his career in the movie business, as well as his role as the proprietor of Vancouver's fine dining eatery -- the Bauhaus! Even if you've never seen one of Uwe Boll's movies, you've undoubtedly heard of him! Boll gained notoriety in 2003 directing House of the Dead, and followed this up with numerous other video game adaptations. He also went on to direct dozens of other, more serious fare over the years, earning him a fascinating, albeit controversial reputation. In this discussion, Uwe Boll and I chat his retiring from making movies, him taking on his critics, the current state of films, particularly in the age of streaming media, and his moving into the restaurant business. We also chat the film he directed starring Dolph Lundgren -- In the Name of the King 2, the wild follow-up to the 2008 film starring Jason Statham. Regardless if you love him or hate him, you can't help but admire Uwe Boll's tenacity, drive, honesty, and passion!
