Hey T.J. from The Grand Horror/Avanttrash.com here to hijack Dead Lantern. I’ve come to exploit the joint audience of our sites to give you free shit!

First of all, I’ve seen the Wachowski brothers Speed Racer and have reviewed it on my site (using Dead Lantern’s patented 10 point scale) and will be mirroring it here at Dead Lantern. I know it’s not horror but it may be when MaT gets done with it.

Secondly I should tell you that AvantTrash is a blog/commentary on Pop Culture based in Chicago and Hollywood. It is co-authored by myself and Ali Aguilar, the adorable blood-spitting ghost at the end of The Grand Horror. We strive to bring you breaking bits of all things Music, Art, Fashion, blah, blah, blah. Sound like something your horor-loving minds would be into? Great! Cause I’ve hooked up with Filter Magazine and will be doing a lot more music reviews and will be GIVING AWAY FREE STUFF in exchange for your meager interest!

Well I’m glad I could rob you of 30 seconds of your weekend, sucker.

I’m pleased to report that the non-contest entries came in quickly and the winners have been chosen. I’m actually taking the first 4 entries rather than the first 3 because a couple of them came in just seconds apart.

I’ll get your “prizes” (I use the term loosely) sent out soon. A few of the DVD cases have chew-marks in them from when my 1-year-old daughter got ahold of them, but I’m sure you guys won’t mind

Thanks!

Update: Thanks to everyone who entered the non-contest; I’m pleased to report that all of the awful, crappy cool prizes have been spoken for.

I need to give a big shout-out to ArsonCuff, a cool guy who posts on our forum. He sent me a few DVDs that he had reviewed and didn’t need anymore, just as a nice gift. I want to keep the good vibes going, so I’m similarly going to send out some of my stupid, old and crappy DVDs that I don’t watch very often as a gift to you, our loyal readers.

This is a totally easy non-contest. All you have to do is send me an e-mail. I’ll take the first three e-mails that I get and those people will each get a small grab-bag of DVDs.

I don’t want to get you too excited, but there might be a copy of Tango & Cash in the mix.
