• The X-Files Mythology: Colonization, courtesy Fox
Mulder's search for the truth seems near its end when he and Scully meet
Cassandra Spender. A multiple abductee, Cassandra believes that aliens came to
Earth on a mission that has somehow gone terribly wrong. Her theory is confirmed
when Krycek reveals that three abduction sites were beacons for alien
colonization and the death and destruction at those sites were caused by a small
alien rebel force. Determined to prevent the colonization of Earth, this force
is also eliminating all proof that an alien presence was ever on the planet.
Unfortunately for Mulder, his quest for the truth has made him part of the proof
which must be eliminated. Four lucky winners will each experience a close
encounter with THE X-FILES MYTHOLOGY: COLONIZATION, courtesy of the SETI members
at Fox Home Entertainment.
• The Evil Dead 2: Book Of The Dead - Limited Edition, courtesy Anchor Bay
Ash (Bruce Campbell), the sole survivor of THE EVIL DEAD, continues his struggle
with the forces of the dead. With his girlfriend possessed by demons and his
body parts runnning amok, Ash is forced to single-handedly battle the legions of
the damned as the most lethal -- and groovy -- hero in horror movie history! Two
lucky winners will go on the run from THE EVIL DEAD 2: BOOK OF THE DEAD -
LIMITED EDITION, courtesy of the scare superiors at Anchor Bay.
• Family Guy Presents: Stewie Griffin - The Untold Story, courtesy Fox
In this exclusive 88 minute DVD premiere, Stewie -- the maniacal baby genius --
is distracted from his plans for world domination when he sees a man just like
him on TV. Convinced that this man must be his real father (after all, how could
he possibly share genetic material with the dimwitted Peter?), Stewie sets off
on a cross-country road trip to find him. But this incredible journey leads him
to discoveries far more vile and shocking that anything found in his diaper. Two
lucky winners will walk the red carpet premiere with FAMILY GUY PRESENTS: STEWIE
GRIFFIN - THE UNTOLD STORY, courtesy of the animation masters at Fox Home
Entertainment.
• Dead And Breakfast (Umd), courtesy Anchor Bay
The story Ð in song and scream Ð of what happens when a seemingly
innocent road trip goes awry. On their way to a wedding, six friends stop for
the night at a quaint bed and breakfast in the sleepy town of Lovelock, TX. But
after a night that ends with both the innÕs owner and his chef dead, the
gang find themselves under suspicion by the local sheriff. The mystery rapidly
deepens when the already bizarre residents of the town become possessed by an
evil spirit. Armed with a rusty chainsaw, a can of gasoline, and a half box of
shotgun shells, they must barricade the house and fight for their lives. Three
lucky winners will enjoy a brief stay at DEAD AND BREAKFAST in the UMD format
(for PSP), courtesy of the vacation planners at Anchor Bay.
• Ghost In The Shell (Umd), courtesy Anchor Bay
By 2029, many people are more machine than human, and virtually all are
hardwired to the Internet. That which remains of the original person is called
the "ghost." When a skilled criminal called the puppet master begins
to hack into people's ghosts and threatens to cause a political disaster, Major
Motoko Kusanagi and Bateau of the specialized sector 9 police force are put on
the case. Since both of them are almost completely cybernetic, the results are
especially important. As the case progresses, it becomes clear that Major
Kusanagi has some link to the mysterious hacker. Three lucky winners will go
ghost hunting with GHOST IN THE SHELL in the UMD format (for PSP), courtesy of
the cyborg support group at Anchor Bay.
• Inside Deep Throat, courtesy Universal
It was banned in 23 states. The government didn-t want you to see it. DEEP
THROAT was more than just a titillating curiosity, it was the sexually explicit
film that ignited a social and political firestorm. Inside Deep Throat examines
the politics and the payoffs, the porn stars and persecution of the cultural
phenomenon that remains just as highly controversial today. Two lucky winners
will uncover the truth INSIDE DEEP THROAT, courtesy of the investigative
journalists at Universal Home Entertainment.
• Ghost In The Shell: S.A.C. - 2nd Gig, courtesy Manga Video
For this second season follow-up to STAND ALONE COMPLEX, director Mamoru Oshii
maintains an episodic format and portrays Section 9 dealing with political
issues such as invited refugees and nuclear intrigue. Another government
institution, the Information Bureau of the Cabinet, goes head-to-head sieth
Section 9 and a terrorist entity called the "Individual Eleven" joins
the fray. Two lucky winners will return to the scene of the crime with GHOST IN
THE SHELL: S.A.C. - 2nd GIG, courtesy of the futurians at Manga Entertainment.
• Henry: Portrait Of A Serial Killer - 20th Anniversary Edition, courtesy Dark Sky Films
Ever seen a film so terrifying that it made you want to sleep with all the
lights on? A film so unsettling that some of its scenes were stuck in your mind
long after it was over? John McNaughton's horrific masterpiece is that kind of
film. Based on true events, this critically acclaimed classic so believably
portrays the senseless killing spree of a dangerous sociopath that people can't
stop talking about it even twenty years later. If you've never seen HENRY
before, get ready for the ride of your life. If you have seen HENRY, you're not
going to want to miss this 20th Anniversary Special Edition, chock full of
never-before-seen extras and presented in a stunning new high definition
transfer supervised by McNaughton. Two lucky winners will each experience the
darkness of HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER - 20TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION,
courtesy of the mental health counselors at Dark Sky Films.
• Halloween (Umd), courtesy Anchor Bay
In the small town of Haddonfield, Illinois, a teenage baby sitter tries to
survive a Halloween night of relentless terror, during which a knife-wielding
maniac goes after the town's hormonally charged youths. Director John Carpenter
takes this simple situation and orchestrates a superbly mounted symphony of
horrors. It's a movie much scarier for its dark spaces and ominous camera
movements than for its explicit bloodletting. Two lucky winners will each
celebrate the holiday with HALLOWEEN in the UMD format (for PSP), courtesy of
the horror historians at Anchor Bay.
• The Evil Dead (Umd), courtesy Anchor Bay
Ash (Bruce Campbell) and four friends arrive at a backwoods cabin for a
vacation, where they find a tape recorder containing incantations from an
ancient book of the dead. When they play the tape, evil forces are unleashed,
and one by one the friends are possessed. Wouldn't you know it, the only way to
kill a "deadite" is by total bodily dismemberment. A roller coaster of
a film packed with shocks, gore, and wild humor, a film that remains a benchmark
for the genre. Two lucky winners will enhance their Halloween viewing with THE
EVIL DEAD in the UMD format (for PSP), courtesy of the gratuitous gore lovers at
Anchor Bay.
• EMR, courtesy Shiny Object Digital Video
Adam (Adam Leese) is stuck. He hates his job, he hates his life, and he spends
all his free time online obsessing over conspiracy theories. While taking an
experimental drug for his epilepsy, Adam begins suffering from seizures, black
outs, and terrifying visions. When he wakes up in a Mexican hotel room with a
missing kidney, he is convinced he's stumbled into the middle of a conspiracy.
As it turns out, this situation is far worse than his wildest nightmares. Two
lucky winners will dive head first into the intrigue of EMR, courtesy of the
conspiracy theorists at Shiny Object Digital Video.
