Hobo With A Shotgun

'Hobo with a Shotgun is a massive waste of time'
- it is gore for gores sake
- it is 'too good at being rubbish', in a sense the film becomes a modernism film; but because the film was originally based on a fake trailer for a fake film, it remains post-modern.


For post-modernism to be successful, it relies on everyone to know nothing about previous films; however they also rely on everyone to know everything so that the intertextual reference make sense. But when everyone knows everything... everyone potentially knows nothing, because everyone knows the same.


"The omnipresence of media output helps explain post-modernists' merging of all discourse into an undifferentiated whole."
