Uwe Boll is at it again: this time he has acquired the rights for the film adaptation to an unreleased action-RPG Legend: Hand of God. The relatively unknown game hits German stores on October 12, with international release next year.

“I think Legend will be very successful because of its unique blend of high fantasy and dark atmosphere,” said Boll. “The world of Legend contains major crossover potential and was already adapted as novel and audio book.”

The film is said to have a $40 million budget, with Boll set to begin shooting in 2009. He is currently working on Far Cry; his next release Postal will arrive in theatres later this month.

GameDaily reports that infamous game director Uwe Boll is getting into game development. The article states that German developer Replay Studios is creating a game called Tunnel Rats, based on an upcoming Vietnam War movie that is not one of his trademark video game adaptations.

“Tunnel Rats is a first-person shooter set during the Vietnam War that tells the story of a young G.I. who escapes from a POW camp and journeys through a heavily fortified valley in the Cu Chi province,” said Marc Moehring Managing Director and Co-Founder, Replay Studios. “It not only depicts his actual physical path through the merciless jungle and claustrophobic, trap-ridden tunnels, but also his emotional and psychological journey as the horrors he witnesses–and participates in–slowly deprive him of his ideals, morals and sanity.”

It will tell a parallel story of different characters in a similar situation and will take place over 10 levels of jungles and tunnels based on the movie. The game will also incorporate Jessica de Rooij’s score the movie as well as additional music.

Uwe Boll is also working on another original property Seed, a horror movie.

Showing that he is indeed insane and not suitable for directing films, Uwe Boll went Postal on the New York Post, according to this GameDaily Biz report. Apparently, a reporter from the newspaper showed a trailer for his upcoming movie to 9/11 victims; guess what their reactions were. Boll went furious because it suggested that the movie be censored or banned from theaters.

Following this, Boll went on to launch a website which was taken down due to threat of legal action from the New York Post. However, it is still up for your viewing pleasure, with Boll saying defiantly: “If they sue me, I don’t think they’ll win.”

Boll said he received a call from New York Post reporter Jill Culora in April about the trailer for the $20 million Postal movie, which includes a plane crashing into a building. Rather than watching the movie, the director said the reporter went to 9/11 victims with the clip and asked for reactions.

“They took the clip and showed it out of context,” said Boll. “The scene is a parody of fundamentalist fanatics. We don’t make fun of the victims of 9/11.”

Boll takes issue with the New York Post writing that Postal is a movie that should not be allowed to play in theaters.

“It’s not acceptable that a rag corner newspaper is trying to censor a comedy without even taking the time to watch it,” said Boll.

Boll did offer one solution to the current situation. He said he’s open to settling this dispute in the boxing ring. Last fall, during the Postal shoot, Boll fought four of his critics in a pay-per-view online boxing match in Vancouver. One of those critics is now interning on the set of Far Cry.

Boxing matches aside, the Postal movie will open this October as a limited release. The director is also working on Far Cry and In The Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, as well as BloodRayne II, which has gone straight-to-DVD in North America.

In seriously bad news for us all, a sequel to the absolutely-terrifyingly-horrible BloodRayne film is in the works! By far the biggest flop in film history (come on, it has to be!), Uwe Boll’s vampire action movie took in a measly $3 million in theatres, whereas it took over $25 million to produce. Well, BloodRayne 2 is set to repeat that ’success’ once again, but without Kristana Lokken donning the leather suit this time. According to Empire Online’s article, Natassia Malthe from the Dead or Alive movie will don the suit; Uwe Boll is still in the director’s chair.

This disaster of a movie will take us back to the old West, with a script written by Christopher Donaldson and Neil Every. No other details are available, and I hope no other details emerge.

EuroGamer carries comments from Kristanna Loken, the star of Terminator 3 and Uwe Boll’s shitfest of a movie - BloodRayne. “That was really sad, because you put over a year of your life into a project, and you think it’s going to do something,” she said, adding that they got “cheated in that sense,” referring to the distribution issues.

As for the movie itself - it turns out she wasn’t prepared for such a negative reaction: “I know that Uwe does not have a great track record, to say the least. Hey, I’m going to be objective. It’s not going to win any awards, but I thought for what it was it was a pretty decent film.”

Loken can be seen next in Uwe Boll’s upcoming movie In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, which is based on the popular Dungeon Siege RPG series. It is due out later this year.
