Welcome to the first year of the HU Awards. Normally, a horror movie would NEVER make it to the Academy Awards “Best Picture” category. Sure, there are exceptions (“Silence of the Lambs”, “The Exorcist”, “Rosemary’s Baby”, “Annie Hall”). But this nominations are few and far between. Now YOU get to choose!
Was 2014 a banner year for amazing horror movies? Probably not. But there were horror movies! And that says something. The genre persists, and we are happy about that. The more horror movies that do well, the more studios want them produced. Quality writers and directors follow, and soon we’ll have another character like Hannibal Lector portrayed by a tremendously powerful actor like Anthony Hopkins. So do your part. You are the Academy!
