Jason Eisener's Hobo With A Shotgun hits Canadian screens March 25th - that'd be now, basically - and my review of the blood drenched exploitation throwback makes up my regular column at Showcase this week. Here's a taste:

A blazing carnival ride of non-stop blood and gore, it's as though Hobo With A Shotgun exists only to prove to itself and its audience that there is no image or moment so extreme that it cannot be topped. The film pushes ever harder, ever faster, into a non-stop game of one-upmanship with things not stopping until everyone who can be dead is.

Yes, this is an endorsement. I like it rather a lot.
