Curiosità

Der Gründer is a 2012 German satirical trash comedy film and the directorial debut of Eric Hordes. The work had its premiere on 21 December 2012 as a “doomsday premiere” in Berlin’s Kino Babylon. The film was released by Turbine Media Group on DVD and on streaming on Amazon Prime Video. The film parodies the story of Thomas G. Hornauer, creator of Kanal Telemedial, who creates a sect with the help of an alien.

Production

In June 2008, Hordes visited the television station Kanal Telemedial together with the singer Jennah Karthes during a live broadcast. Out of enthusiasm, he then wrote a script for a trash film over two days and then shot it.

Helmut Krauss was so fascinated by the script that he co-produced the film.

The film not only satirizes Hornauer, but also caricatures the cult leader Uriella and other television formats such as Astro TV. The stylistic device used is effects that are reminiscent of the science fiction B movies of the 1950s.

One of these effects is the complete dubbing in post-production, whereby some actors were dubbed by voice actors such as Wolfgang Völz, Marianne Groß or Eberhard Prüter.

The actor Ingo Frischeisen worked as a presenter and musician on Telemedial's television programs. He parodies himself in the film as Ingo Ingold.
