THE CRY OF THE OWL - DVD COMPETITION


On 19th April 2010 Metrodome Distribution are releasing the chilling thriller THE CRY OF THE OWL onto UK DVD. The film is from the writer of THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY.

Robert (Paddy Considine) leaves the big city and his ex-wife for the tranquillity of a small town where he begins to secretly watch the normal domestic life of a woman he doesn’t know through her kitchen window. But when Jenny (Julia Stiles) catches Robert in the act, she doesn’t call the police. Instead she feels a strange empathy for Robert and invites him into her home.

The fateful act sees the pair spiralling into a passionate relationship which has dire consequences when her boyfriend Greg finds out. Immediately suspicious of Robert, Greg makes it his mission to destroy him. But when Greg goes missing, Robert discovers he is the number one suspect in a murder case that is slowly beginning to look like the ultimate trap.

HOUSE OF THE DEVIL - DVD COMPETITION



On 29th March 2010 Metrodome Distribution are unleashing Ti West's terrifying HOUSE OF THE DEVIL onto UK DVD and Blu-Ray...

Set in the 80s and directed by master of horror Ti West, The House of the Devil stars Jocelin Donahue as pretty cash-strapped college student Samantha. Desperate to find a deposit on a new flat, Samantha accepts a one-off babysitting job for a rather sinister-sounding employer. The money is too good to turn down so Samantha puts her doubts aside and sets off with her boisterous friend Megan who insists on coming along to make sure all is ok.
The house turns out to be an eerie and isolated mansion quite a bit further out of town and upon arrival both the girls feel uncomfortable. However when the employer agrees to up Samantha’s wage, she is persuaded to stay and Megan promises to return at midnight to collect her. However no sooner does Megan leave but things begin to spiral out of control and Samantha soon finds herself trapped in the house.
As a lunar eclipse darkens the night sky, Samantha finds that her employers – cult favourites Tom Noonan (Manhunter) and Mary Woronov (Rock and Roll High School) – have something truly terrifying in store for her and it soon becomes clear that she will end this night with a bloody fight for her life.
Acclaimed across the world as an unrelenting, unforgettable journey into the darkest realms of fear itself, The House of the Devil will make you pray for the dawn.

Thanks to Metrodome we have 3 copies of the DVD as prizes - to be in with a chance of winning please answer the following question:

Ti West recently directed a sequel to a hit Eli Roth horror film - name that movie?

UPDATE 7th April 2010. THE COMPETITION IS NOW CLOSED.
