Are you one of the many hopeful filmmakers out there trying to get that big break? Perhaps this may be your chance as Jason Eisener, director of the upcoming film “Hobo With A Shotgun,” opens up a contest that may give that special filmmaker an extra exposure boost that he\/she longed for. Eisener proposes for filmmakers to go out there and shoot their own fake trailer. Among the submissions, the one that’s chosen as the best fake trailer will be featured on the DVD for “Hobo With A Shotgun.”<\/p>\n
Rutger Hauer stars in the grindhouse-inspired film with a cast that includes Molly Dunsworth, Gregory Smith, Nick Bateman and Brian Downey.<\/p>\n
A train pulls into its final station and a Hobo (Hauer) hops from a freight car. He has dreams of a fresh life in a new city, but finds himself trapped in an urban hell instead. A city where criminals rule the streets, landlords evict single mothers in the middle of the night, and where the city’s crime boss, The Drake (Downey), reigns supreme with his sadistic, homeless-killing sons, Slick (Smith) & Ivan (Bateman). Through the chaos, the Hobo comes across a shop window displaying a second hand lawn mower and a shotgun, and decides it’s time to cut the grass, make the city beautiful and start a new way of life. But after witnessing the brutality that encompasses this city, he realizes the only way to make a difference in this place is with a gun in his hand and two shells in its chamber.<\/strong><\/p>\n “Hobo With A Shotgun” will be playing at this year’s South by SouthWest Film Festival on March 15th and 16th. If you can’t make it to those screenings, you can see “Hobo” on XBOX Marketplace, VOD, iTunes, Amazon.com and the Playstation Network on April 1st with the limited theatrical release following shortly after on May 6th.<\/p>\n Submit<\/a> right now for the contest. The deadline ends on March 31st at 11:59 PM EST.<\/p>\n
