Starring Heston Horwin and Jillian Harris, this title is also the winner of a "Best Screenplay" award at this year's Fantasporto Film Festival. Now, one Canadian reader can win the film on Blu-ray, with entry details below. Dead Dicks offers a strange story. Richie has died. But, an orifice, in his wall, has re-birthed him. Every time he dies, he is born again. Now, his sister, Becca, is getting involved. But, as the bodies stack up, this one room apartment is turning more and more into a mortuary. Dead Dicks released in late July. Now, one Blu-ray will be given away to one Canadian film fan, with a contact email below.

Dead Dicks will be available on Blu-ray From Artsploitation Films July 28th
Dead Dicks, a light-hearted, metaphysical sci-fi horror film, is a bizarre celebration of death, resurrection and insanity. Think Harold and Maud meets Groundhog Day as directed by Alain Resnais (Last Year at Marienbad). Richie is a suicidal young man who, every time he kills himself, finds himself very much alive but with a dead body of him in his apartment. His sister comes to the rescue, but as the bodies pile up, the pair think that a vagina-like opening in Richie’s bedroom might hold the answer.
Check out this trailer:
