Watch Buried While Buried! Dan Koelsch, August 25, 2010 If you love Ryan Reynolds and tight spaces, this contest is for you. Fantastic Fest, the annual genre film festival held in Austin, Texas, is coming up this September, and you can walk the red carpet opening night if you are chosen to watch Lionsgate’s Buried while actually buried underground. Calling it a “Rolling Roadshow of One”, this is part of the organization’s series of on-location screenings of films. Read the official details after the break, and sign up on Facebook to be one of the four lucky winners. In celebration of the much buzzed about film BURIED, Fantastic Fest will present the movie as part of their “Rolling Roadshow” screening series the weekend prior to the opening of the festival. The unprecedented “Rolling Roadshow of One”, goes beyond the bounds of sanity by enlisting four souls to view the entire film while buried! The Rolling Roadshow is the Alamo Drafthouse’s nationwide tour of famous movies in famous places…. Previous screenings have included Close Encounters of the Third Kind at Devil’s Tower in Wyoming, Escape from Alcatrazon Alcatraz Island and more recently The Blues Brothers at Old Joliet Prison. We are looking for four volunteers to attend this special “Rolling Roadshow of One.” Those who survive the screening are invited to walk the red carpet & attend the Fantastic Fest premiere on September 23rd at the historic Paramount Theatre with star Ryan Reynolds and director Rodrigo Cortés in attendance. By RSVPing below, you are indicating your willingness to watch the entire film buried beneath the surface. 4 participants will be chosen randomly from those who sign up to participate. Please note, participants will be monitored by emergency medical service technicians for the duration of the screening. Contests Events Viral Marketing BuriedFantastic FestFilm Festival
