One of my favorite awards is the Saturn Award! Horror, sci-fi, fantasy, and action movies are never rewarded…except by me and the Saturn Awards. (I got tired of removing the superfluous commas, so I decided to leave the rest as the list is found on the official website.) I’ll work my way through as much of this list as possible.
