Uwe Boll wants your money

Uwe Boll, video game director auteur, would like to borrow some cash. $49 to be exact. That crazy German has cooked up a new scheme to finance his newest film (not video game related, mind you).

For the terrorist thriller "Blackout," Boll is offering "fans" a chance to spend $49 to become a co-producer on the film. What does your cash buy you? Well, obviously the credit, but also a special edition DVD of the finished film…if it gets made.
