Auschwitz Is Now A Video Game Film: Video

UWE Boll is creating a film about Auschwitz. The film will be treated in his usual sensitive manner, as you can see from the clip below.

Boll is best known for making terrible film based on video games. Auschwitz was not a video game, but given Boll’s treatment it might have been.
