Richard Linklater's A Scanner Darkly is one of my most anticipated films this summer, a chance to see a Philip K Dick story put on screen without first being tidied up and santized and generally stripped of everything that makes Dick so distinctive. The kindly folk at Warner Independent Pictures seem to think rather fondly of it as well and they've offered our US readers a crack at one of ten prize packs for the film - T shirts, tattoos, stickers, wrist bands, that sort of thing.
Want one? Of course, you do, but first you have to convince me that you are worthy. So answer me this: Dick wrote himself into his final trilogy of gnostic themed novels under a different name. What was the name of Dick's stand-in character in those books?
Send your answer here before July 7th - that being the film's release date - for your chance to win.
