Top 10 Worst Video Game Movies
Mark Wahlberg stars in this weekend's number one film Max Payne, the latest in an almost unstoppable line of bad movies based on video games. TIME's look at the ten worst console to screen adaptations is like shooting fish in a barrel with a plasma cannon.
It's an Uwe Boll trifecta! BloodRayne, a film about a half-human, half-vampire (Terminator 3's Kristanna Loken) out to kill her father (Ben Kingsley, in one of his "I've already got an Oscar, screw it" performances), this video game adaptation actually makes one feel sorry for Michael Madsen. The man's not made for period pieces outside of grimy '70s cop movies. Neither is Michelle Rodriguez, for that matter. Seriously, where was the casting director on this one?
BloodRayne 2 (yes, they somehow made another) went straight to DVD, though its premise—vampires in the Wild West—is much cooler than this Castlevania ripoff.
Speaking of, when are they going to make a Castlevania movie? We'd be all over that.
