HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN headed to a theater near you!
Do you remember seeing Tarantino’s GRINDHOUSE for the first time and thinking to yourself, “Man, I sure do wish those faux-trailers at the beginning were real films”? Well, now your wildest dreams are coming true, because not only is MACHETE slated to release this year, but another familiar faux-film is getting crafted into reality.
The trailer for HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN (directed by contest winner Jason Eisner) has started filming a full theatrical version. But who will be wielding a shotgun and a tinfoil hat? Find out after the jump!
The success of HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN will ultimately ride on which brave actor takes up the mantel of “Hobo.” According to Aint It Cool News, that man will be none other than the Dutch defender himself, Rutger Hauer. Hauer is known for messing up Harrison Ford’s reality in BLADE RUNNER. He seems like the perfect fit for an insane hobo with a thirst for revenge.
