Fans of Grindhouse will likely enjoy this equally sick, disgusting, and morally reprehensible piece of exploitation, which is thematically without any redeeming qualities. Full review by Chris Pandolfi.
A movie with the nuance you might expect from its title.
★★★ I only just saw this for the first time, and… Where do I start? This is one weird film and a perfect example of a movie which is so bad that actually it has become pretty good!
At least you gave it a three, but you do realize this movie is a part of the exploitation genre, right? I only ask, because you say: "If you want a film which has little in the way of story, almost no meaningful dialogue, relatively poor acting throughout, awful (and I mean really awful) visual effects, over the top blood & (I would say gore but I’m going to settle on) gloop and an absolute ton of senseless violence, then this is the film for you!" - That's the point. A lot of exploitation cinema is "so bad it's good," and while it's definitely not everybodies cup of tea, it's part of a tribute to a bygone era in filmmaking (which got a serious push in the late 2000s with the callback movie "Grindhouse").
Rutger Hauer stars as the Hobo with a Shotgun in an incredibly fun movie. Be sure to check out Capsule Computers review by following the link.
I like HOBO's and this one has a shotgun so looks like im going to go check tihs movie out for sure.
From what I've heard, the movie unfolds exactly as the title suggests just like Snakes on a Plane and other plot-foreshadowing titles. A Hobo with a Shotgun is enough to drive my interest. Grindhouse is hit-or-miss, but I'm willing to give this a chance.
Same here...I'm a fan and going to give it a chance. I'm sure it's going to be bloody but those usually are....aren't they?
I'm going if it shows in my area. There is always limited release on some of these movies around here so we'll see. If not...I'll catch it on dvd.
