“Uwe Boll lands Lauren Holly, Luke Perry”

Yes. “Lands.” Must have been quite a struggle.

  • I just want to know what project he’s putting them in.

    So I can avoid it like the plague.

  • Happy Go Lucky

    Yes, an A-List cast indeed: Jim Carrey’s ex and Krusty the Clown’s half brother.

  • Whatever happened to Lauren Holly? After “Turbulence” I never heard from her again.

  • Actually with the reputation Boll has (and the general quality of his work – some of which takes years to find a distributor), it’s a wonder that even these 3rd rate has-beens would agree to work for him…

  • Lawyer Ku

    I understand Uwe Boll has been targeted for Pippination.

  • What sort of bait did he use?

  • John Nowak

    I heard an interview with a retired scriptwriter who mentioned he went back to work on a sitcom so he could reach some sort of “# of shows worked on” target to qualify for union benefits.

    I think that explains a lot about why actors work for Uwe Boll.

    Has Luke Perry actually been in any significant theatrically released movies? His IMDB page is full of credits, but it’s mostly TV stuff and it becomes hard to decipher legitimate movies with the junk he did for a paycheck.

  • BeckoningChasm

    Well, I liked The Fifth Element but Luke was hardly a major part of that…or even a minor part. Though he did get the final “And Luke Perry” cast credit, so someone thought he was a draw.

  • Blackadder

    Luke Perry had a major role in the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie, which totally sucked – I can’t believe some of the same people were later responsible for the series. Perry was not even a credit to that dismal production.

    I have to agree with other commentators: I can’t believe any actor (no matter how obscure) would work with Uwe Boll for any amount of money (no matter how large). Boll and Rob Zombie should be buried in quicklime before they can direct again.

  • Luke Perry was in that “Calendar Girl” movie, wasn’t he? The one about the three guys who wanted to have sex with Marilyn Monroe or something?

    Hey Ken is there going to be a We are what we buy post for Nov coming up soon?

  • MarshallDog

    Thanks Blackadder! I forgot that movie even existed, but you’re right. And it did suck, but at least it is a real movie. Not sure whatever Uwe has planned can be called that.
