The holidays are past, but that doesn’t mean we at CHUD are done giving things away!
We’re happy to partner with Epic Picture Group to outfit a lucky chewer with a Blu-ray copy of Big Ass Spider, along with a poster and a t-shirt. (You can also buy the disc from CHUD if you’re too eager for arachnid action to wait on a contest)
You have to hand it to a film that states itself so plainly in its title. We live in an age of Sharknadoes and other twisted creature features, so something that takes it back to a plain old big-ass monster has an immediate charm. Check out the trailer:
If you’d like to throw your name in the hat for the prizes, simply shoot me an email here (my name at google’s email service) and ensure the subject line stays “BigAssGiveaway.”
Remember to include your name and physical address, so we know where to send the goods!
