Loken defends Bloodrayne and Boll

KristannaLoken.jpgKristanna Loken has decided to match Uwe Boll and speak out about her slight umbrage on the mishandled release of Bloodrayne. After all, that is what really caused the films problems.

From SciFi Wire through Eurogamer:

"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 told SCI FI Wire. "I think we really did get cheated in that sense," she said of the distribution issues.

Boll said much the same when we interviewed him recently - complaining, "We were scheduled to go out on 2000 screens, and then we came out on 930 screens, and only sh**** screens, so it didn't work out." But he and Loken might be buoyed by DVD sales, which Boll reckons will be good - based on sales of his previous films on DVD.

As to the quality of the film and its director, Loken wasn't prepared to have a pop. "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,"

Yeah, well the audiences didn't go. There are plenty of films whose releases are small and do very well, look at Tsotsi right now. I think you may find the problem might be closer to home than that, the release was merely a symptom.
