CONTEST: Win a STINGRAY SAM DVD and Soundtrack

"Stingray Sam is not a hero..." but musician-filmmaker Cory McAbee's drolly inventive sci-fi/western/musical has made a heroic self-distributed leap to DVD. [Official site here.] From my original review last year:

Rocketing through another monochrome corner of the gently surreal, weird-humored universe shared by his lovely, Lynchian 2001 intergalactic musical The American Astronaut (any film with characters named "The Blueberry Pirate" and "The Boy Who Actually Saw a Female Breast" makes my cut in this decade's cult canon), musician-filmmaker-actor Cory McAbee again follows his heart and whimsical mind to the outer limits with Stingray Sam. Modeled after old Buck Rogers serials and the like, McAbee's musical space-western yarn spans six serialized episodes, each "presented" by fictional every-corp Liberty Chew Chewing Tobacco, a satirical stand-in for the annoying overlap between entertainment and consumer culture (commercials, ubiquitous product placements, having to whore oneself to make a living).

GreenCine Daily has a Stingray Sam DVD and soundtrack CD to give away to one lucky reader in the U.S. To enter to win, check out the three screenshots below the jump and determine each film. (Hint: In honor of McAbee's film, one's a musical, another's a western, and the other is sci-fi). One random winner who correctly identifies all three films will be chosen on Friday to win both discs. UPDATE: Congrats to Chris Clark! The answers were Dead Man, The Thing From Another World, and Forbidden Zone.
