German filmmaker Uwe Boll gained notoriety with the release trailer of his new movie titled Auschwitz. The trailer features Boll dressed as an SS guard standing outside a gas chamber door while prisoners inside pound the door; later in the trailer medics pull teeth from prisoners and place bodies inside the ovens for cremation. The disturbing trailer has sparked outrage among the movie critic community, many of whom pledge to boycott the movie when released next year. Critics claim he is exploiting the horrors of the Holocaust for his financial gain while Boll claims to use the subject to educate those whom believe the Holocaust to be a myth.
