F.E.A.R. Launches Fan Film Contest

F.E.A.R. Launches Fan Film Contest

Sierra Entertainment and GameTrailers have teamed up to launch a user-generated movie contest called “Show Us Your F.E.A.R.” via the official Web site for the upcoming action/horror game F.E.A.R.—First Encounter Assault Recon, due to ship in November 2006.

In the contest, users submit their own unique, short, scary, and creative videos which demonstrate what they feel to be the true meaning of the word fear. (We imagine for some, the films could be titled A Day Without Playstation.) On October 24, GameTrailers will announce five to ten finalists for the contest, and then let site users vote for their favorites. The winner will receive a $1,000 grand prize.
