Movie News: Rutger Hauer to star in Grindhouse spinoff

Hobo With a Shotgun, the winner of the "Make Your Own Grindhouse Trailer" contest, is now being made into a feature-length film.  And much to my delight, it will be starring the iconic creeper himself, Rutger Hauer.

From Ain't it Cool News:

"Hobo is the story of a homeless drifter who starts taking out his economically displaced rage on everyone from robbers to corrupt cops to a child-molesting Santa Claus. Director Jason Eisener is said to be currently filming in Halifax, Nova Scotia with Rutger Hauer taking over the starring role."

Really excited about this one!  If only it would be finished in time to be a double-feature with Machete!
