"Golden Raspberry" awards are handed out to Hollywood's howlers, 24 hours before the Oscars
It’s official.
“Fifty shades of Grey” and “Fantastic Four” are the worst films to have hit the screen in 2015.
A dead heat for the main category, the two epics took home a combined total of seven Golden
Raspberry awards.
“Fifty Shades” swept the board, winning five awards: worst film, worst actor (Jamie Dornan), worst actress (Dakota Johnson). worst combo (Dornan and Johnson) and worst screenplay.
However, it was not all bad news.
Sylvester Stallone has been given a “Razzie Redeemer” award thanks to his Academy-Award nominated role in Ryan Cooger’s “Creed”, a spin-off from the Rocky franchise.
The redeemer prize acknowledges previous winners who have gone on to do better work.
