Hobo With A Shotgun, starring Rutger Hauer: movie poster and trailer

By Jack Brummet, Genre Film Editor

 
Hobo With A Shotgun is a second movie spun off from the fake Grindhouse trailers (Machete was the first). This movie opens today in Austin and NYC, and will open slowly elsewhere around the country. Judging from the trailer, it looks like a fine movie in the grindhouse tradition of sleaze. Nuns With Guns is also supposed to be in production. . .

The best part: Hobo With A Shotgun stars Rutger Hauer.



"A train pulls into the station - it's the end of the line. A Hobo jumps from a freight car, hoping for a fresh start in a new city. Instead, he finds himself trapped in an urban hell. This is a world where criminals rule the streets and Drake, the city's crime boss, reigns supreme alongside his sadistic murderous sons, Slick & Ivan. Amidst the chaos, the Hobo comes across a pawn shop window displaying a second hand lawn mower. He dreams of making the city a beautiful place and starting a new life for himself. But as the brutality continues to rage around him, he notices a shotgun hanging above the lawn mower... Quickly, he realizes the only way to make a difference in this town is with that gun in his hand and two shells in its chamber."
