It’s well known that horror films rarely get recognized by awards-giving bodies. While it’s true that horror film Get Out and horror-adjacent film The Shape of Water both won Oscars this year, that’s more the exception that proves the rule than anything.

Thankfully, there does exist a yearly awards show that exists solely to honor the best of the horror, sci-fi, and fantasy genres. They’re called the Saturn Awards, and if you’re not aware of them, you should be, even if they’re not quite as cool as our own iHorror Awards.

The Saturn Awards were created in 1973, and this year marks the 44th annual ceremony presentation. The winners will be announced in June, and you can even vote in them, provided you’re willing to pay the fee involved with joining their organization.

Without any further ado, here are the nominees. Some of the biggest horror-specific nominees include hit Stephen King adaptation IT, the aforementioned Get Out, and TV treasure Ash vs Evil Dead.
