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.

What are the Razzie awards?

  • Officially known as the “Golden Raspberries”
  • Announced in Los Angeles 24 hours before the Oscars
  • Given to the worst films and performances
  • 2016 is 36th ceremony
