"A train pulls into the station - it's the end of the line. A Hobo jumps from a freight car, hoping for a fresh start in a new city. Instead, he finds himself trapped in an urban hell. This is a world where criminals rule the streets and Drake, the city's crime boss, reigns supreme alongside his sadistic murderous sons, Slick & Ivan. Amidst the chaos, the Hobo comes across a pawn shop window displaying a second hand lawn mower. He dreams of making the city a beautiful place and starting a new life for himself. But as the brutality continues to rage around him, he notices a shotgun hanging above the lawn mower... Quickly, he realizes the only way to make a difference in this town is with that gun in his hand and two shells in its chamber."

Well that was....weirdly entertaining.

I was expecting a production in similar fashion to that of the recent Machete flick (which I loved) but Hobo With A Shotgun is D-grade all the way, and once I realised this and took it for what it was, it was highly enjoyable.

Soundtrack was awesome, early 80's style, and Ricky from Trailer Park Boys is in a scene. Whole premise is obviously grossly unbelievable, but the 'villains' felt a bit too 'Robocop 2' if you know what I mean. It's quite a depressing movie to begin with, which sets it all up nicely though.

Action was pretty much non-stop, and gradually became more gory as it went on. Some hilarious scenes and out-of-place quotes from Rutger Hauer. (lost my s*** 2/3 through from one of his lines)

Probably the first ever pure D-grade flick I've ever watched.....and I loved it.
