The 2011 film Hobo With A Shotgun started out as a fake movie trailer in Grindhouse, but thanks to independent filmmakers from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, it became the second Grindhouse trailer (after Machete) to get converted into a feature-length film.An elderly, nameless hobo (Rutger Hauer) arrives in the city of Hope Town, a run-down dystopian sprawl. The Hobo only wants to eke out a humble life in the city, but thanks to The Drake (the depraved crime boss who controls the city), urban decay runs rampant and violence has become a way of life. Tension builds as The Hobo tries to co-exist with the city-wide corruption, but when circumstances push him over the edge, he picks up a twelve-gauge and delivers bloody justice to the city's criminals.The film's is a broad and grotesque pastiche of the Vigilante Justice sub-genre of exploitation cinema (represented by films such as Death Wish), with some surprisingly subtle flourishes mixed into the outlandish mayhem. | |

Abnormal Ammo | |
| Hobo With a Shotgun / int_12c65d9b | comment |
Abnormal Ammo: One of the members of the Plague, Grinder, carries a spear gun that fires a short spear up into the ceiling, pulling along a short rope tied around any of their unfortunate victims' necks that quickly strangles them to death, essentially being a "gallows gun". | |

Overdrawn at the Blood Bank: In keeping with the film's source material, this trope is in constant use. Perhaps most obvious when Logan has his head ripped off, and the blood sprays from his severed neck at a ludicrous velocity for several minutes without any decrease in volume or speed. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Hobo gives his life to kill Drake and ensure that the citizens who have come to his aid fire the first shots on the corrupt police force. Abby is alive but has lost a hand and spends the end of the film hysterically screaming, and the remaining Plague member claims she'll become a member of them soon [and in the alternate ending included on the Blu-Ray, she does]. The town may live or die in the ensuing violence, but either way the tyranny of Drake's crime family has ended. | |

Would Hurt a Child: One of the pawnshop robbers is ready to shoot a baby and one of the hobo-killing townsfolk throws a molotov into a dumpster where a homeless child is living. Then there's the disgusting pedophile Santa Claus who openly loiters outside schools. But Slick takes the prize when he burns a busload of little children, then threatens to wipe out every child in the city if the Hobo isn't killed. | |

Improbable Infant Survival: Zigzagged through the film: the Hobo manages to save the crying baby in the Pawn Shop holdup, but the children in the film usually get set on fire, as the anti-homeless rioters set a homeless mom and her baby on fire, and Slick torching a bus of children after they declare their support for the hobo. | |

The Aggressive Drug Dealer: Slick, who gleefully maims a kid who owes him money, but then shoves the poor kid's face into a pile of cocaine. That Slick would casually wander around with such a big pile of cocaine is, of course, yet another of the over-the-top touches that make this film what it is. | |

Parental Favoritism: Exaggerated; Drake makes it clear that he favors Slick over Ivan, even telling both boys to their faces that only Slick has the potential to succeed him.

Badass Bystander: Subverted by a random doctor, who flips out and opens fire on the Plague when they first burst into his hospital. He gets gutted for his troubles, but at least he had the balls to attack The Dreaded head-on. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Hobo With a Shotgun / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: The hobo's borderline-nonsensical parable to Abby about bears clawing the faces off people who get too close. It wasn't actually torn off, but... possibly inspired by the Kipling poem "The Truce of the Bear". When Slick hassles the kid for the money he owes him, he's playing an arcade game called The Plague. Footage of gameplay has the player controlling Grinder. | |

Shout-Out | |

Shout-Out: The Plague dragging a coffin behind their bikes is similar to Undertaker's schtick and before that, the spaghetti Western Django. Many of the villains, such as the Plague gang, Ivan, and Slick, are named after characters from River City Ransom. The scene of Abby in the pawn shop customizing the shotgun is filmed like a similar scene in Evil Dead 2, complete with the usage of a vice. Her slap bands replace Ash’s shotgun strap, the lawnmower for the chainsaw. And then she loses her right hand, finishing the Ash reference. | |

High-Pressure Blood | |
| Hobo With a Shotgun / int_dc0d80ee | comment |
High-Pressure Blood: Used constantly, in keeping with the over-the-top nature of the film. Used very prominently, and combined with Overdrawn at the Blood Bank, when Logan has his head ripped off, and seemingly never-ending spray of blood fountains from his neck; with enough pressure that a girl in a bikini can happily shower in it. | |

Pædo Hunt: One of the rogues gallery of scum Hobo puts down is a ludicrously disgusting man dressed in a Santa Claus costume who openly preys upon and kidnaps small children in broad daylight. | |

Feet-First Introduction | |
| Hobo With a Shotgun / int_e73f6217 | comment |
Feet-First Introduction: Drake is introduced stepping out of his limo as Logan is begging the hobo for help. The first things seen are his perfectly polished black shoes and his immaculate white trousers: which mark him as an anomaly on the grime-ridden streets of Scum Town. | |

Bodybag Trick | |
| Hobo With a Shotgun / int_fa068232 | comment |
Bodybag Trick: When the Hobo kills the Dirty Cop who is attempting to rape Abby, his shots draw the attention of the mob who are hunting the homeless. Abby runs past them, looking convincingly panicked, with the cop's body in a shopping trolley. She yells to the mob that He Went That Way and they head off in pursuit. After they have gone, the Hobo emerges from the shopping trolley where he has been hidden under (and partially inside) the cop's corpse. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist: The Hobo is ultimately a good man who only wants the best for Hopetown, but he's clearly mentally unstable and goes pretty overboard with his vigilanteism at times. | |
