Who doesn’t love food? Or movies? How about combining the two into a contest that could win you an awesome prize? The latest marketing tactic for Spike Lee‘s OLDBOY remake involves delicious potstickers. Interested?

Dumplings play an integral part of the story for OLDBOY as evidenced in the viral clip below. We even get a brief glimpse of the infamous octopus scene from the original Park Chan-wook film being included in the new version. But, those tasty dumplings could win you the hammer that Brolin wields when returning to the prison he called home for two decades.

All you have to do is follow these instructions:

For a chance to win the actual hammer used by Josh Brolin‘s character in the film, tweet us (@FilmDistrict) a photo of a dumpling at your favorite local dumpling spot with the hashtag #eattheclues. The contest ends on October 20th and a randomly chosen winner will be selected the following day on October 21st.

I don’t know about you, but I have a favorite dumpling place so this would be an easy decision. How about you guys? Either way, check out the cool new clip from OLDBOY, which opens in theaters on November 27, 2013.
