Hobo with a Shotgun, directed by Jason Eisener, was initially a fake trailer made for an international contest to promote the release of Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's double feature Grindhouse.[5] It won the contest, and was screened in some areas of Canada as part of the actual release of Grindhouse.[6] A feature-length version of Hobo With a Shotgun began principal photography in Halifax on April 19, 2010.[7]
A teaser trailer (including behind-the-scenes and test footage) was released on April 26, 2010.[8]
It was the second of Grindhouse's fake trailers to be turned into a feature film, the first being Rodriguez's Machete.[9] David Brunt, who played the homeless man in the trailer, has a cameo appearance in the film as a cop.[10]
