Contest: ‘Night Of The Living Trekkies’ Prize Pack Posted: 19 Sep 2010 06:14 AM PDT Remember that trailer for Night Of The Living Trekkies that was released last week?

One (1) winner will receive: - One (1) Night Of The Living Trekkies book - One (1) Night Of The Living Trekkies poster This sci-fi/zombie/comedy/adventure follows a group of rag-tag Trekkies getting together for the fifth annual GulfCon (billed as the "largest Starfleet Convention in the western Gulf Coast region"). Our heroes are dressed in homemade uniforms and armed with prop phasers-but soon find themselves defending their hotel and convention center against hordes of flesh-eating undead. Suddenly, all of their useless knowledge about particle physics and old Star Trek episodes has genuine real-world applications! And while hotel employees and regular civilians are dying left and right, our Trekkies summon strength and courage by emulating their favorite starship-voyaging characters.

Journey to the final frontier of zombie science-fiction satire! [...]
