Meep. A word which here means meep. Why, were you looking for some deeper meaning there?

This makes me immeasurably happy.

IT'S BACK!
BEGINNING JUNE 2nd,

ENTER CHILLER'S "DARE 2 DIRECT" SHORT FILM CONTEST

FOR YOUR CHANCE TO WIN $5,000!

At Chiller, Halloween isn't just around the corner—it's here. That's because our Dare 2 Direct Short Film Contest 2008 kicks off beginning June 2nd.

What's all the fuss?

Well, last year, three talented filmmakers beat out several hundred contestants and walked off with $5,000 each in prize money. And, on Halloween night, their films aired on NBC Universal's Chiller network.

If you've got an itch to be the new Hitch, here's what you do: make a horror movie that's between three and six minutes long. Fill out our submissions form and mail the form, and your film, to Chiller. It's that simple.

Once everyone's approved films are uploaded to our Web site, visitors to Chillertv.com will cast their votes for Best Picture. A judging panel will select finalists in the remaining two categories: Creepiest Character and Coolest Costume/Makeup. A Special Guest Judge will pick the winners in all three categories.

What's in it for you? How 'bouts:

$5,000 for each category winner

Sound like your speed? Awesome! We've prepared a special Quick Start Guide to get you up and running. We've also produced a Fearful Filmmaking 101 primer filled with useful creative tips. Whether you're a Dare 2 Direct veteran from last year, or a newbie, make sure to read them.
