Plot Synopsis
Storyline
A vigilante homeless man pulls into a new city and finds himself trapped in urban chaos, a city where crime rules and where the city's crime boss reigns. Seeing an urban landscape filled with armed robbers, corrupt cops, abused prostitutes and even a pedophile Santa, the Hobo goes about bringing justice to the city the best way he knows how - with a 20-gauge shotgun. Mayhem ensues when he tries to make things better for the future generation. Street justice will indeed prevail. Written by Greg Guy

This is a explotaition film. So basicly their gimmick is using blood and guts, if you are not into thath I wouldn't find a reason to watch this movie. The whole tone of the movie is well defined by the artowrk and title of it.
The whole plot is really cartoon-ish, you have good guys and you have bad guys, no grey area characters, but I said before, you should know what you are getting with a title like that and with the trailer. Having said that, this film is really entretaining, has some fun scenes, funny dialogue. creative deaths and lots of quotable bits. Seeing the evollution of a whole town is really interesting as well.
With Hobo With a Shotgun you pretty much know what you are getting from the title alone, don't expect anything midblowing. but if you are into this kind of thing you will really enjoy the ride.
