Hobo With A Shotgun

This is a simple film about a crime fighting hobo with a shotgun who targets the big businessmen and the mafia like family running a crime ridden town. A tragic act of violence triggers an explosion of violence so the Hobo and a Hooker team up to put an end to the chaos...by causing chaos.

Seems pretty average right? Wrong. This solid 9.5/10 film delivered the goods in every fucking department I can think of. Badass female. Check. Badass hobo lead? Check. Over twenty minutes of violence? Check. Over the top action and gory setpieces? Check. Borderline torture? Check. Emotional moments? Check. A jaw dropping massacre that crosses many lines? Double check. A suckerpunch to the temple in terms of storytelling? Check. A wonderful Grindhouse feel, an OCTOPUS, ROBOTS, and three of the most innovative weapons I've seen outside of the horror genre? MEGA CHECK.

I saw this in theaters. It was a really fun time. I have the DVD and I need to watch this again soon. 8.5/10

This movie was damn near perfect lol. It should've been like 15 minutes longer though.

Love the end credits song too. Nostalgia ftw.

Ditto Firefly... Ditto. And let me just say that The Drake was one of the creepiest characters I've seen in a film... something about his make up and demeanor was just so terrifying...

Yes. This is a great film. Robb Wells deserved better though, he's much better as Ricky in The Trailer Park boys.

But I digress, I agree that this movie has everything. Not to mention a woman having an orgasm whilst getting covered in blood...

I've done some things in my life that I'm not proud of, and the things I am proud of are disgusting.
