HULK and STRANGERS coming to DVD Tuesday!

Giveaways, Top Story

Okay, so I’ve posted contests for Sleeping Beauty and Indiana Jones in recent days, but here’s something really special: an odd pairing of The Incredible Hulk and The Strangers.

Due to generous PR firms, The DVD Lounge has gotten a lot of cool swag as it pertains to contests and reviews and such. And for a little change of pace you’ll need answer a few questions. Don’t expect brainteasers or anything, just simple trivia that any Tom, Dick, or Harry should be able to figure out. (So I expect a lot of Tom, Dick, and Harrys to enter.)

Address the e-mails to dvdcontests@4sternstaging.com

For the subject, have it say Hulk and Strangers = Smash and Grab

In the body of the email please provide the answers to the 3 questions plus your mailing address.

Finally, this contest ends November 7th at noon Central Time and is only open to residents of the United States and Canada.

So here are the three questions and further down are images and info on what you can win. Of course this contest wouldn’t be possible without the PR firms and the various studios that make it happen. So a big thanks to them!

Question 1 – Both The Incredible Hulk and The Strangers have a cast member in common. Who is it?

Question 2 – Louis Leterrier’s directorial debut was what?


Question 3
– Edward Norton had a cameo in what 2005 film?

And with that….good luck…here’s what you can win!
