Collider:
We’ve been bringing you the first images from films that will premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in January, and today we’ve got images from a couple of ridiculously fantastic films that will be featured under the festival’s Park City at Midnight banner: Hobo with a Shotgun and Troll Hunters.
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.
