With Ciarán Foy’s Sinister 2 hitting our screens next Friday, we have a pretty awesome competition that’ll let you channel you inner horror director to create your own scary movie. Just like the creepy kids at the heart of the Sinister franchise, all you need to do is film your own #SinisterHomeMovie echoing the Super 8 look of the home videos in the film, with those who make the shortlist being judged by Foy himself. The top prize is your very own iPad, and the shortlisted finalists will have the chance of having their movie included on the Sinister 2 DVD. I think you can agree that this is a pretty incredible prize.
This is all you need to do to enter:
Participants must create a #SinisterHomeMovie in the form a video between 5 and 60 seconds in length.
The video must be uploaded to Instagram, Vine or YouTube with the #SinisterHomeMovie.
The video link must be shared on Twitter using the #SinisterHomeMovie.
The video must not contain any illegal content including but not limited to drug use, real violence or injury.
