Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)

Option 1Can't Watch?

Wait 30secs. Movie still not playing? Click the "Can't Watch?" tab.

If the movie didn't load, it means you are being blocked by a security service we use. This can happen for a number of reasons.

Click this first

A new tab will open and a basic security check like a captcha will be performed. After completing the check, close that page and return here.

Refresh this page. Wait 30 secs. The movie should load and you can just hit play.



If it still doesn't play, Click here to watch the movie

The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.

The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.

This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.

If you're still having problems, try using 'Incognito mode' in your browser. On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.

IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

AKA:
Directed by: Jason Eisener
Starring: Rutger Hauer (Hobo), Molly Dunsworth (Abby), Brian Downey (Drake), Gregory Smith (Slick), Nick Bateman (Ivan)
Country: Canada; Effed Up Canadian Movies
Language: English (Optional Eng Subs)
Runtime: 01:26:08
Genres: Gore-Gruesome-Splatter, Prostitution

Plot – Spoilers:
In a world straight out of a game, a hobo tries to stay low and keep out of trouble. All he wants is a lawnmower, so he can earn a living rather than wait on stray coins from passerbys. But instead of the lawnmower, a shotgun is forced on him and he goes where no shotgun has gone before.

The Hobo looks like Anthony Hopkins and sneers like Clint Eastwood, while reminding us that The Hitcher is not on this website yet.

Hobo with a Shotgun is downright ridiculous at times, but the gore is clean and it has plenty of nods to other films and incidents, most notably during the schoolbus burning scene where the song Disco Inferno plays – a reference to the murder of Suzanne Capper where the killers sang the line “Burn baby burn” while setting the victim on fire.

Lots of comedies on EUM. More than I thought. “To Die For,” “Serial Mom,” “Ms. 45,” “The Green Butchers,” “Deep Dark,” and the list goes on and on. My opinion is that there should be a “Comedy” section listed under “Genres” but it’s not necessary.

“Hobo With A Shotgun” is a comedy. If this film was advertised as a movie playing in a theater near me I wouldn’t go. I’m not saying it’s bad. It’s just something I wouldn’t care to see. As a comedy it’s ok. There are much better ones on here. The joke gets old and tired in this one fairly quick. I was glad when it was over. 2 stars for me.

Watched it up to the maniac on the school bus then it lost all credibility and turned into surreal comedy. That was enough for me.

LOL, this is a good film. It IS worth a watch. 6.1 IMDB…the over the top ridiculous scenes are
how the hobo sees things….through an exaggerated lens; all of it is purposeful and meaningful.
This film is an allegory for the tribulation. Hobo is Michael, the pros/teacher is christ, or the literal exaltation of God as her name suggests Abby means the joy/exultation/rejoicing of God.
Drake…as his name suggests, is the dragon/monster/satan. Look it up. Also the name drake is associated with the number 3. he is the head of the snake. There are countless references in this film to all of this,
including biblical, norse, and gaelic mythology. The homeless stand for those left behind after the rapture. Michael sends Satan and his soldiers back to hell….(see scene where slick gets taken by burning bus to hell). So much more to see and comment on…so many easter eggs, but uh…
rewatch it with this in mind.

Never heard of this one tbh but looking forward to it. Rutger Hauer always plays the bad guy in films, I think he just has that look. His standout role would have to be ”The Hitcher”, one of the awesomest films ever. Also starred opposite Sly Stallone in ”Nighthawks”, another great movie, not to mention numerous others.
