Brutal HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN Mondo Poster
Ok, we know that this was the original HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN poster. Well, this is the new poster design by Jeff Procter…
The poster for HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN was created as part of Alamo Drafthouse & Mondo’s 2011 SXSW poster collection. Artwork is by Jeff Procter and carries the proud distinction of being the most graphic & brutal artwork ever created by Mondo.
Synopsis:
“A train pulls into its final station and a Hobo 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, reigns supreme with his sadistic, homeless-killing sons, Slick & Ivan. 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.”
HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN will play at SXSW: Tuesday, March 15 and Wednesday, March 16
HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN will be available on VOD, iTunes, XBOX Marketplace, Playstation Network and Amazon.com on April 1, and in select theaters May 6
