1975 was a good year . . .
So, in the run up to the 1st Annual Imaginary Cinema Awards in the new year (more on that later) I thought I'd retroactively come up with my awards for the best in horror, fantasy and sci-fi movies from each of the last 33 years, starting with the year that I was only around for the last few months of.
The categories are fairly arbitrary, based solely on whether I could think of any deserving choices that year. So here's the best from 1975. A year that saw the rise of such future legends as Steven Spielberg, Terry Gilliam and David Cronenberg. Look for more to follow soon!
Best Movie: Jaws. Runners-up: Monty Python and the Holy Grail, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, A Boy and His Dog, Rollerball, Shivers
Best Screenplay: Peter Benchley and Carl Gottlieb (Jaws)
Best Director: Steven Spielberg (Jaws)
Best Actor: Robert Shaw (Jaws); Runner-up: Tim Curry (The Rocky Horror Picture Show)
Best Actress: Susan Sarandon (The Rocky Horror Picture Show)
Best Music: John Williams (Jaws); Runner-up: The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Best Makeup: The Devil’s Rain

Tim Curry is no runner-up in those fishnets! You should make a joke category for best best actor in drag and have Tim Curry win it EVERY YEAR.
