trailer break: ‘Hobo with a Shotgun’ (warning: unrated and brutal)


Best title ever? Or worst title ever? Could it be both, simultaneously?

Filmmakers tread a very fine line with a movie like this. Do it right, and the movie captures a palpable rage at a fucked-up world. Do it wrong, and it’s just random brutality.

The presence of Rutger Hauer could indicate in either direction…

Hobo with a Shotgun is now playing in limited release in Canada; it is now available in the U.S. on demand from Amazon on Demand and other services, and opens theatrically on May 6; it opens in the U.K. on July 22.
