Uwe Boll Wants Your Cash For "Blackout"

Widely derided German director Uwe Boll has found a new way to finance his upcoming films - online punters says The Hollywood Reporter.

For around $49, you can be a 'co-producer' on Boll's terrorist disaster tale "Blackout". Boll hopes to raise $18.5 million through the film's Web site TheBlackoutFilm.com.

Those who sign up and transfer the money are promised a limited-edition DVD of the film plus a chance to win a trip to the set and other prizes.

The site will be open till March 31st. If the planned budget is not reached by then, but at least 43% of the desired cash has been collected, Boll may elect to make the movie with a smaller budget.

If not, he says he will return most of the cash to investors with at least $40 from each payment being returned should the film not get made.

Boll is currently shooting the apocalyptic thriller "The Storm" starring Lauren Holly and Luke Perry.

Think about it

so my "investment" will never be returned but I'll end up getting a DVD that retails for $15 brand new.
but it does enter you into a raffle, assuming that the film does end up with its full budget, that details as...

* Cash prizes. A raffle will take place at the end of 2009 in which 1 participant will win $500,000.-- US, 1 participant $100,000.-- US, 100 participants $1,500.-- US, 100 participants $1,000.-- US, and 100 participants $500,-- US. At the end of 2010, another raffle will take place in the same form where 20% of the films  profits from 2010 will be given away, thus 303 further prizes.

Boll's chuzpah is commendable, he's no longer satisfied with ripping people off one rental fee and/or movie ticket at a time, he's aiming much higher these days.

If he had like 42.9999%, I'd pay $49 to put it over the top.

We should make our own movie instead.

I suggest a coming of age comedy where Father Mike tries to get laid
