Lurtz, I believe, is that insane and ugly Uruk-hai that killed Boromir after Boromir attempted to get the Ring from Frodo... Of course, Boromir got his revenge and all ;)

You remember the scene.. the one where Boromir was turned into a pin cushion by a big ugly brute? Well that bruse was Lurtz.

BTW, I can not find the coupon :(
