WIN! Porky's Limited Edition Blu-Ray Steelbook!
|
Diegesis have 2 copies of seminal 80s teen sex comedy Porky's in limited edition Blu-Ray Steelbook packaging to give away, courtesy of Arrow Films! Out this week, this will mark the first time that Porky’s will be made available on the Blu-ray format in the UK.
Long before American Pie, an age ahead of Superbad, there came Porky’s, a seminal ’80s comedy high school sex-romp which defined the VHS generation and arguably went on to become more than just a full-frontal pioneer of the adolescent sex farce. A national embarrassment, a rite of passage, a rebuke of racial discrimination and a crudely accurate portrayal of high school life—director Bob Clark’s 1982 classic is all this and more. To enter, head over to our Facebook page and "like" and share the Porky's competition post or retweet the competition link on Twitter then email us at: [email protected] with "Porky's competition" in the subject line to add your name to the draw. Good luck! Do make sure you like the Diegesis Facebook page or follow us on Twitter to get updates! Terms and Conditions: UK residents ONLY. Winner will be randomly chosen from entries following the correct entry instructions. Diegesis cannot be held responsible for any lost prizes. Please allow 28 days from competition closing date for delivery of prize. Winners will be notified via email. Closing date for entries is midnight June 19th 2014. |
The Blu-Ray Steelbook includes:
• Audio commentary by writer/director Bob Clark • Porky’s Through the Peephole – Bob Clark looks back at his box-office sensation • Skin Classic! – Mr Skin celebrates Porky’s and the heyday of the 80s teen sex comedy • Porky’s trailer reel • Booklet featuring new writing on the film by Paul Corupe, creator of the Canuxploitation website, and a previously unpublished interview with director Bob Clark conducted by Calum Waddell, illustrated with archive stills. |
