Welcome to the annual Oscar Fright Weekend. The actual 84th Academy Awards Ceremony will take place this Sunday on ABC at 7PM EST. Until then it's frights of various sorts for everyone in the house. Although other genres like Thrillers and Mysteries are on the list for viewing, I'm especially interested in highlighting the actual horror movies that have at least been nominated or even scored a win, since the Oscars are so well known for their snub when it comes to the horror genre. So first up, Francis Ford Coppola's, Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), which actually managed to win 3 of the 4 Oscars it was nominated for! Not bad for a vampire film!!
