BloodRayne Was Too Bloody
Uwe Boll, director of the upcoming vampire movie BloodRayne, told SCI FI Wire that his initial cut was so bloody it earned an NC-17 rating and had to be recut for its theatrical release. But, Boll added in an interview, the original cut will eventually find its way onto DVD.
BloodRayne, which is based on a video game, will carry an R rating when it hits movie theaters on Jan. 6, 2006. The Motion Picture Association of America ordered Boll to cut several particularly graphic scenes, the director said.
"We will have the original version released shortly after on DVD, but we had to take out the parts where we were cutting people in half," Boll said. "We did some really, really good effects and things I've never before seen in movies, and many of those effects stay in, but some of the most shocking things have been taken out, and that's OK, because it takes you out of the movie."
Kristanna Loken (Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines) plays the title character, a half-human half-vampire warrior. She admitted that a few of the scenes made her sick. "I remember one time looking at myself [in a mirror] and only seeing my blue eyes and all the rest red," she said in a separate interview. "It was after a scene where I wiped out half a dozen people and sucked the blood out of them. We had blood made out of powdered chocolate. We had a gore unit. I was disturbed at my own reflection. I think the part that really turned my stomach was when I stabbed this guy through the eye and blood comes through."
That moment was cut from the movie, as was a scene that freaked out Loken's co-star, Michael Madsen, who has seen his own share of gruesome deaths as a cast member of Sin City, Kill Bill, Species II, TV's Frankenstein and Reservoir Dogs. "There's one scene that I was disturbed by, and that was when this guy gets chopped in half and people are still stabbing him," Madsen said. "Yeah, I was a little disturbed by that." A disappointed Boll added: "We had to cut that scene, too." BloodRayne also stars Ben Kingsley, Udo Kier, Meat Loaf, Billy Zane, Matthew Davis and Michael Pare.
