How do I get in contact directly with Mutant Enemy surpassing 20th Fox? I'm just a local film maker... no agent.

Nope. It is probably infringement unless it is a parody. Visit www.copyright.gov and read about copyrights and "fair use."

Nope. Most sample artists are infringing unless they get permission. Most just don't get caught.

It depends on his agreement with Fox. If it was a "work for hire" then Fox owns it.

That only applies to reviews of the song. It is part of "fair use."
