When I heard that they were making a movie out of the controversial mid 90’s PC game, Postal I was a little excited. Whilst not the greatest game, it was fun, and deliberatly designed to shock, which at the age of 13 is exactly what you want to do. Plus it was on the Mac, which if anyone who owned a Mac in 1996 remembers, there went’t many games available, (bar maybe Pong and Carmageddon).
When I heard about it I had thoughts of some great ideas for plots. Action Horror films, straight up horror, even a Die Hard action flick would have been cool. A postal worker tries to kill everyone at christmas and one of the people he kidnaps happens to be William Atherton and Bonnie Bedelia…
Anyway my point, I read a not so good review on wired.com (opens in a new window) and the Director of Postal Uwe Boll who the same director of another video game adaptation House of the Dead, a film that has been described as, and I quote, “The Worst Movie Ever Made”, has actually come back and responded to the critic!! Quite a funny read actually, take a look
