The Golden Turkey Awards presents a humorous take on Hollywood's most notorious cinematic disasters. This "reverse" awards ceremony highlights categories such as the Most Unerotic Concept in Pornography, the Worst Performance by an Animal, and the Most Ridiculous Monster in Screen History. Illustrated in striking black and white, it celebrates the worst of the worst in film, featuring infamous performances and cringe-worthy dialogue that define these abysmal movies. Recall John Travolta's role as a melting monster in The Devil's Rain, or Henry Fonda battling bees in The Swarm. Remember Mary Tyler Moore as a lovesick nun in Change of Habit or Scuttlebutt the Talking Duck in Everything's Ducky? The book challenges readers to guess the winners across 30 categories, including The Most Obnoxious Child Performer of All Time and the Life Achievement Awards for Worst Actor, Actress, and Director. It also includes a national poll for The (very) Worst Film of All Time and a comprehensive index of the most unbelievable films. Hosted by the Brothers Medved—Harry and Michael—this collection of cinematic mediocrity features descriptions of over 425 films, with one complete hoax among them. Can you spot the fake?
