	~ The Filmmaker's last words, begging for his life.

The Filmmaker is a minor antagonist in the 2011 vigilante film Hobo With a Shotgun.

He was portrayed by Pasha Ebrahimi.

History

After arriving in Hope Town in search of work to buy a lawnmower, one of the first people The Hobo meets is the Filmmaker who offers him money to star in one of his films while two homeless people fight behind him. Not wanting to demean himself, The Hobo initially refuses and tries begging on the sidewalk for the money, but comes up mostly empty handed.

Now desperate, The Hobo reluctantly agrees to be in one of the Filmmaker's movies for $50, and he's forced to chew on broken glass and then smile so the viewer could see his bleeding mouth, and the Filmmaker pays The Hobo. After returning to the store selling the lawnmower, three thieves suddenly burst in and hold everyone inside hostage and talk about killing a defenseless woman and her baby out of pure sadism, angering The Hobo enough to murder all three of them and begin his mission cleaning up Hope Town.

The Filmmaker is the first person The Hobo sets his sights on, shooting him in the stomach at his home and forcing him to eat the recording tape he used to film his bum fights in revenge. The Filmmaker pitifully begs for his life as he only wanted to leave Hope town, but The Hobo doesn't listen as he hits across his face with the butt of his shotgun, killing him.
