    Every year, the Golden Raspberry Awards (a.k.a. the Razzies) honor the “worst” in contemporary cinema. Yet in doing so, they have often inadvertently shed light on films so out-there, so uncompromising, so beyond the bounds of accepted “good” taste that they demand attention. While some infamous Razzie winners like XANADU, BARB WIRE, and GIGLI live on as classics of camp and cult, others, like Michael Cimino’s HEAVEN’S GATE, Elaine May’s ISHTAR, and Paul Verhoeven’s SHOWGIRLS have been reclaimed as fearlessly ambitious expressions of personal vision. In a topsy-turvy way, this program pays tribute to those divisive films that continue to fascinate and provoke debate, while calling into question the very line that separates high and low culture.

    I would love a Blair Witch Project physical criterion release. The amount of features you could put on that disc. The impact that that film has had on the horror genre and guerrilla filmmaking whether you love it or hate it is undeniable.
    And even better it’s showing how ahead of its time it was with the younger generation dominating UA-cam with the analogue horror movement. So many kids discovering The Blair Witch through their interest in the Backrooms.
    The Blair Witch deserves the most special of Criterion releases.

    The Razzies are such a mixed bag. Sometimes, they get so caught up in the moment of nominating & “awarding” what was popular to revile that year, but sometimes, they miss the truly awful movies of that year.
    For example, let’s look at 1997. Sure, you could kick The Postman for being an overly long and expensive ego trip from Kevin Costner, but does that mean it deserves to win in the same year that gave us Batman & Robin, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, Steel, BAPS, Buddy, or Jungle 2 Jungle?
    Also, the last five movies didn’t manage more than one nomination, and it was for Shaq because low hanging fruit.

      I watched Xanadu and I honestly felt it wasn’t bad. Some choices they made weren’t the best choices (like the male lead was so out of place). It’s essentially a ‘40s musical in the ‘80s. It’s better than Norte - The End of History or Horse Money (two foreign films with undeserved praise).
