Winner of the Rodriguez Grindhouse competition.

[Vampiresoup]

Ok dudes. As you all prob know, theres a new Rodriguez movie comin out. They had a competition for fake grindhouse trailers. A guy I know here in Halifax shot one and it ended up winning the whole thing. It was shot on the DVX.

It's awesome. And it's called Hobo with a Shotgun.

You need to watch this one. Shows what you can do with a DVX and some grit.

Something tells me he didnt shoot this specificaly for the contest.

Still interesting none the less.

 

[Vampiresoup]

He did actually. It was supposed to be a tribute to those grindhouse movies. This was written and shot specifically for that.

 

[Matthew Bennett]

Nice trailer! Digusting action!
What did he win, by the way?

 

[Smettli]

Hahaha! hilarious. Very funny concept and when the narrator screams out the title the second time, this is a keeper

 

[Geoff_R]

That was cool. I dig the announcer's voice too. Now that it won, is this going to play prior to the actually Grindhouse films when they're in the theaters?

 

[inspire84]

That was nice. I wonder what the budget was on it...(i.e. cop car, guns, blood packs etc). Cool though.

Hey -

I was one one the DP for DEAD WON"T DIE, one of the 3 finalists. We got a tour of Troublemaker Studios and an invite to the premiere in LA this Monday. I think we ended up spending $750.00, but we shot it on 16mm, all with my gear or freebies. It was fun. Check it out here, if you dare...

The grand winner got a laptop and some Avid software and it will most likely end op on the DVD.

I knew it would win

 

[Mark Harris]

that one was a lot of fun, and sometimes I feel like that's exactly how I will end up in NYC in about 20 years.

But I am still a fan of Wilson's...

 

[fevercity]

Congrats, Wilson. I really like "Dead Won't Die". Especially all the graphic warnings and 'no refunds'. Classic.

Hopefully you can make the trip. Maybe?

Regardless, keep up the great work.

 

[wesley]

i actually liked "dead won't die" a LOT more than hobo with a shotgun. good job on it really feels like authentic grindhouse

 

[Evan S]

agreed

 

[Slimothy]

I agree w/ the "dead won't die" being a bit better. They both were pretty darn cool though.

They both were pretty darn cool though.

I think Spidey went as far as saying that Hobo With a Shotgun was "sublime".

 

[Ramon Boutviseth]

haha, i love it. where do u get the chic, and the guy who did the voice?

 

[stinkpot]

A hobo. A shotgun. Recipe for great entertainment. :thumbup::thumbup:
