It's Friday!!

Good morning,  here's the first Oscar Fright of the day.  Have a good one.


For a horror fan, this was one hell of a year for the Oscars!!  I was nominated for 7 Academy Awards and won a whopping 5!!  It remains one of the only horror movies to sweep the awards.

Nominated for:

Best Film Editing
Best Sound

WON:

Best Picture of the Year
Best Director:  Jonathan Demme
Best Actress:  Jodie Foster
Best Actor:  Anthony Hopkins
Best Screenplay Based on a Previous Work

OK this is a did you know moment.

The original movie poster has a the famous death's head moth mock up that contains women in the form of a skull.  A lot of people are unaware that the image wasn't created for the movie.   See below
