Hobo with a Shotgun is an upcoming 2011 movie, based on the fake trailer featured in some screenings (mainly in Canada) of Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez project Grindhouse. It's the second feature being made out of fake trailer from this movie (the first is Machete). Note: The pictures are the screenshots from the teaser trailer

Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)


The following firearms were used in the movie Hobo with a Shotgun:

Remington 870

In the feature version, instead of Ithaca 37, used by Hobo in the original fake trailer, Hobo (David Brunt was replaced by cult actor Rutger Hauer) uses a Remington 870 to execute various criminals including a serial killer covered with blood and cocaine, pimps, bumfights film-makers and, of course, a pedophile in Santa suit. Later, after the Hobo has been captured, his friend Abby takes the shotgun and customizes it, sawing the stock down to a pistol grip and duct-taping an axe head to it.

Spear Guns

The Plauge (those two guys in the wierd armor), are equipped with spear guns that they hang people with by tying a noose around their necks and anchoring the rope to the ceiling with the harpoon. The guns were built upon M203 grenade launchers.


Trivia

Shot for shot

Hobo with a Shotgun did not utilize the same technique as Machete (i.e. recycling originally shot footage for the full length feature) - Director Jason Eisener did not recycle any of the footage from original trailer (which was necessary since the actors were recast). Some of the refilmed sequences are literally shot for shot recreations of the original faux trailer.
