Yes, Uwe Boll. Not his career as a director of schlocky game-to-movie adaptations, not one of his films, but the man himself. We'll let him explain in his own words, which we've taken out of context because we're horrible bastards:

"I think I made a perfect House of the Dead movie, because it really shows how the game is. It's a lot of fun, it's over-the-top action." -Eurogamer , Feb. 15, 2006
