The Academy Awards weren’t the only ones in Hollywood passing out statuettes this weekend. The 27th Annual Golden Raspberry Awards were handed out for rather dubious distinctions in modern cinema. Surprisingly, horror was almost completely shut out of every category it was eligible for. The big loser of the night was Basic Instinct 2, which beat out Bloodrayne, The Wicker Man remake and Lady In the Water for Worst Picture. In fact, of the nominated horror-related films only two received any recognition. Carmen Electra took home Worst Supporting Actress for Scary Movie 4, and Lady in the Water nabbed two wins for both Worst Director and Worst Supporting Actor for Lady in the Water. I’m just glad that, though Texas Chainsaw Massacre - The Beginning deserved some recognition, Little Man was the recipient of the award for Worst Remake or Rip-Off. Shameless.
