'Nope,' Mia Goth, and more got well-deserved recognition in the 2023 Fangoria Chainsaw Awards nominations.
Many moviegoers were left disappointed once again by the horror genre being shut out of the Oscar nominations this past week. It was even more disheartening knowing that 2022 was one of the best years for the genre in a very long time. However, the spooky folks at Fangoria are here to save the day as they just announced their nominees for their annual Chainsaw Awards.
Whether it’s mainstream terrors or smaller indie frights, no horror stone is left unturned here with the 19 categories. Some of the major highlights include Barbarian, The Black Phone, Nope, Pearl and X being nominated for Best Wide Release Movie while Best Limited-Release Movie nominees included Orphan: First Kill, Resurrection, Mad God, Terrifier 2 and Something in the Dirt. The Best Streaming Movie category also included heavy hitters like Prey, Fresh, and Hellraiser.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY When talking about the Chainsaw Awards Fangoria's Editor-In-Chief Phil Nobile Jr. said: “We shouldn’t be surprised at the lack of love horror received from mainstream awards this year, but 2022 was an embarrassment of riches for the horror fan, and to see none of it nominated by the bigger institutions was a bit of a shock. As ever, FANGORIA is happy to pick up the slack.”Nobile would finish his remarks teasing, “The genre excellence on display in 2022 encompasses veterans and new voices, productions of all sizes, and every color of the dark.
Fangoria has been wonderfully celebrating horror for over four decades. Their constant promotion of this neglected genre has always put a warm scary blanket around horror fans. That continues with this year’s Chainsaw Awards as they are voted on by those die hard fans. Voting is open now, and you can let your scream-worthy voice be heard by visiting Fangoria’s website. The entire list of chilling nominees can also be found there.
