RSSWe have never really been a big fan of director Rolf Hammerschmidt. To be honest, for years we have eschewed reviewing films from the German-born director. However, times and markets have changed since his debut behind the camera back in 1990. (We do, however, have a review of his famous Boytropolis, the surprise 1996 film debut of Lukas Ridgeston.)
It did come as a surprise to us to read that Falcon was hiring Hammerschmidt to direct for their Falcon International line. Does Hammerschmidt A.D. 2008 look better then Hammerschmidt A.D. 1996?
We must admit even the more recent movies under his new Hammer Films movie line are a bit low on production qualities, despite some very cute Czech and German models. The film sets sometimes look as dark as old castles. (And we do not mean Peter Cushing’s or Christopher Lee’s Hammer Films, although it would be fun to confuse the two.)

But perhaps under the new Falcon International banner, Hammerschmidt can reanimate his reputation and career, all without mummifying Falcon’s.
Hammerschmidt’s first FI entry is the cheery looking Czech Tales, Part 1. Below is the film preview, which looks impressive. We also can say that we have never seen Nicolas Santos film anything disappointing (Prison Fuckers). And Dominic Trojan always looks adorable.
