The "Seed of Chucky" Sperm Bank: Gross or Brilliant?

I was on Yahoo! Movies today when I stumbled across a tower ad that took me to the "Sperm Bank," which just happens to be the "Official Seed of Chucky Fan Community."

With lots of tongue in cheek humor, the Sperm Bank enlists Chucky fans to engage in various viral and promotional marketing activities that earn them "sperm," which they can later cash in for Chucky swag. Some of the activities include:

Paint the town Chucky! Chucky is getting ready to paint the town red this weekend. Click here and help him get started by printing out stickers from the "Killer Stuff" section and hanging them all over your town! Take a picture of your handiwork and upload it to the Delivery Room for 200 sperm. (Limit one).

Opening Weekend Photo Challenge When you rush to see Seed of Chucky this weekend, don't forget your friends or your camera! Take a photo of you and a group of your friends in front of a Chucky poster, upload it to the Delivery Room and you'll get 200 sperm! (Limit one).

Interesting idea, but it the user interface is crappy, and you would have to do a hell of a lot of free promo work to get a free Chucky doll. I might try to get the Chucky condoms though -- they're only 200 points.
