Paranormal Activity Contest: Win a Personal Screening and a Home Entertainment System Dan Koelsch, December 14, 2009December 15, 2009 Amazon is teaming up with Paramount Home Entertainment to bring you a pretty nifty contest for Paranormal Activity, and all you have to do is sign up by December 18th. Since the film had a slow release based on word of mouth, I’m sure the marketing team has plenty of money to allocate to this kind of thing. So, what’s the prize? First, you get to host a “Red Carpet” screening at your home for up to 20 people that may include the filmmakers or cast as special guests. In connection with the screening, you also get to use and keep a home entertainment system worth up to $4,000. Not bad! See the official rules for details. Paranormal Activity releases on DVD and Blu-ray on December 29 and is available now for pre-order. Viral Marketing paranormal activity
