HORROR MOVIE PODCAST PRESENTS the 3rd Annual HORROR CINEMA AWARDS — A celebration of the finest filmic achievements in horror for 2018!

We’ve assembled another wonderful jury from every corner of the horror community, including filmmaker, critics, writers, podcasters, artists, and academics. The nominees are in traditional awards show categories like “Best Actress” and “Best Picture.” The nominees were then voted on by our selected jurors, as well as the Horror Movie Podcast hosts and our 2018 HMP Listeners of the Year.

After the main event, your HMP hosts will be giving away their own special “Dead Serious” awards where we get a little more out of the box and award films for their best “Creeptures” or use of “Real Life Horror.”
