Absolute Anime Contest
Posted: Jan 13, 2005 4:11pm
Okay, I have some DVD's to give away, so I figure it's time to try a contest. I was thinking of a banner design contest.
Banners should be either 460x60 (standard) or 88x31 (mini), and need to be in either GIF, JPEG, or PNG format. Send them via email (which can be found at http://www.AbsoluteAnime.com/admin/contact.htm in case you don't know) and put "contest" in the subject. The contest will end sometime around Friday of next week (Jan 21). I will post an announcement here when it's officially over. Until then, send in as many banners as you like.
The DVD's I have to give away are from Asia Extreme, one is "Phone" and the other is "Doppelganger". You can read below for more info about each one. I just got them myself and will be posting reviews shortly.
And now for the legal stuff. Let's see... all entries become the property of Absolute Anime... the DVD's are rated R, so if you are under 17 you will need to have a parent or guardian claim it for you... that's all the legal stuff I can think of. Hopefully I covered everything, but if I missed something I'm sure you'll let me know... you all seem to be pretty good at that

Doppelganger is from acclaimed director Kiyoshi Kurosawa, who has established himself as one of the top-five international Japanese directors. His new film, Bright Future, opened Nov. 12 to rapturous acclaim from New York film critics. In the U.S., Kurosawa is best known for Cure and Seance. However, many consider Doppelganger, the opening night film of the Pusan Film Festival in 2003, his finest work.
In Phone, investigative reporter Ji-won, who has recently published a controversial article about sex scandals, begins to receive a series of menacing calls. In an effort to escape the terrifying and relentless clanging of the telephone, she changes her number and moves to a new house. But the threatening campaign of terror continues unabated ... the jangling of the phone fraying nerves and disrupting lives. When a friend's young daughter answers one of the calls, she begins to exhibit increasingly bizarre and abhorrent behavior as more and more people begin to die mysteriously. Ji-won struggles desperately to unravel the mystery to bring this cycle of death to an end.
