Weekly Comp - Cat O'Nine Tails - 25/09/2011 - FINISHED
 

Hello!

I'll announce the winners of the preview week's competition for Cannibal Holocaust a little later today due the thread disappearing over night!

Anywho, who would like to win Dario Argento's...


The Cat O’ Nine Tails, Dario Argento’s second feature as director, stars James Franciscus (Beneath The Planet Of The Apes; The Valley Of Gwangi), Karl Malden (The Streets Of San Francisco; On The Waterfront; A Streetcar Named Desire) and French actress and singer Catherine Spaak (Hotel; La Ronde; The Easy Life) in a classic Giallo tale that begins when a break in at a genetics lab leads to a spiralling vortex of bloody murder.

Strange circumstances surrounding the crime pique the interest of a journalist and a blind crossword compiler whose sharp ears have overheard talk of blackmail. However, all those assisting the would-be investigators in their crime solving soon begin to regret becoming involved as scientists die in front of speeding trains and photographers are viciously slain, while others fall to their screaming deaths down elevator shafts.

It soon becomes clear that the killer is on to the investigative duo and will do anything to protect his identity in this surreal and nightmarish thriller from one of the acknowledged masters of Italian horror.

The Cat O’ Nine Tails (cert. 15) will be released on Blu-ray (£24.99) by Arrow Video on 26th September 2011. Special Features include: brand new High Definition transfer of the film in its original 2.35:1 (16x9) aspect ratio; Dario Argento Remembers The Cat O’ Nine Tails; The Cat O’ Nine Tails In Reflection – an interview with long-time Argento collaborator Luigi Cozzi; Sergio Martino: The Art And Arteries of the Giallo; four sleeve art options with original and newly commissioned artwork; two-sided fold out poster; exclusive collectors’ booklet featuring brand new writing by Alan Jones, author of “Profondo Argento”; English and Italian mono (with English subtitles) audio options.

So how do you win? Well let's have a game of 20 questions!!! :woot:

The rules are simple. One person has either a famous name in film or a film title. Then members have to ask questions to try and figure out who or what the answer is. The person can only answer yes, no, etc - no details or specifics. Whoever guesses the film/person correct, it's their go to think of a film/person and they win a point. If nobody guesses the film/person after 20 questions then that person wins themselves a point and thinks of another film or person for the next round.

To make it easier make sure you number your question before you start. So the first person would ask something like...

1) Is it a film title?

and the second person to ask a question would write something like...

2) Why are you so awesome Kyle?

and so on...

The winners of the competition are those to get the most correct at the end of the week. If there's a draw three names will be randomly selected from those that are tied.

Also, at the end of each round be sure to post the score. It's basically just like that hangman game a few comp's back...but with 20 questions instead.

So, that's it!

Good luck!

I'll go first, so fire away with those questions (of course my point wont count).

Kyle

1) Is it a film?

Yep, sure is!

2) Is it part of the Arrow/Shameless catalogue?

Is it a horror film...?

Nope - but if it was made a few decades before...

Nope.

3) is it a British film?

No-diddly-oh.

is it a violent film?

Is it an action film?
