Uwe Boll Postal sequel is somehow happening, and I need you to understand that this is not a drill. The director who gave us the original Postal in 2007—a film so aggressively tasteless it made audiences question the concept of cinema itself—is back with Postal 2, an unofficial continuation of the franchise that absolutely nobody asked for but that Uwe Boll is making anyway because that’s what Uwe Boll does.
The original Postal was based on the video game series known for its shock humor, political incorrectness, and general commitment to offending everyone equally. The movie carried that torch with pride, featuring plot points about September 11, Osama bin Laden, and a theme park called Little Germany. It has a 9% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is somehow not zero, and critics called it “infantile, irreverent and boorish to the max.” One reviewer gave it zero stars and said there’s “just no fun to be had.” Uwe Boll read these reviews and apparently thought “let’s do it again.”
Uwe Boll Postal sequel is being crowdfunded, because of course it is. The director tried to raise $2.5 million for the project and managed to pull in $850 before the campaign imploded. The original game’s developers even said they “have no f***** idea” who was involved, which tells you everything about the organizational structure here. But Boll persists, because persistence is all he has.
What makes this fascinating is that Uwe Boll Postal sequel represents a very specific type of filmmaking—the kind that exists purely to provoke. Boll isn’t trying to win awards or please critics. He’s trying to make you react, and if that reaction is disgust, so be it. The original Postal was a provocation first, an insult second, a publicity stunt third, and a film a distant fourth, according to one critic. Postal 2 promises more of the same.
Jackie Tohn stars in the sequel, which is described as “a controversial comedy about current political issues.” Uwe Boll Postal sequel will undoubtedly feature more boundary-pushing content, more offensive humor, and more scenes that make you wonder how this got funding. But that’s the point. In an era of sanitized corporate entertainment, Boll is making the exact opposite, and there’s something almost admirable about that commitment.
Whether you watch it ironically or genuinely or not at all, Uwe Boll Postal sequel will exist, and that alone is a victory for chaos in the universe.
Prepare yourself for Uwe Boll Postal sequel and witness cinema’s most persistent provocateur return to the screen.
