Seems like there ain't much of making-of material out on the net including production stills or even behind-the-scene video footage.

I could be wrong, but I doubt many people watching Funny Games will think through what it’s saying. Unfortunately I was familiar with Haneke’s films, so it didn’t have such a jarring effect on me. After a friend and I left the theatre, I tried to explain how I saw the film. My former friend told me I was a sociopath and so was Haneke. I wonder how unique my situation was for other viewers?

ole bornrdal was to remake his original 1994 nightwatch with miramax almost shot for shot in 1997, but soderbergh and post-production messed it up
