Razzie Winning Movies

The Golden Raspberry (Razzies®) awards are the brainchild of John J.B. Wilson. The Razzies® celebrate the worst that Hollywood has to offer for a given year. Wilson started the Razzies® back in 1980, and they have grown into a yearly fun event…..unless of course you are one of the nominees or the winners.  The Razzies® follow in the tradition of the Medved brother’s Golden Turkey Awards and the Harvard Lampoon “Movie Worst” Awards.

This page looks at the winners or should I say loser of the Worst Picture of the year.  All the Razzie® Winning Movies are listed in the following table.  The table ranks 37 Razzie Winning Movies movies from Best to Worst in five different sortable columns of information.

Things I Find Interesting About The Razzie Winning Movies

1. Sandra Bullock actually proved what a good sport she was by picking up her Razzie® for All About Steve the night before she won her Oscar® for The Blindside. Halle Berry also picked up her Razzie® and gave a very funny acceptance speech.

2. Internet Movie Database (IMDb) actually lists Razzie® wins and nominations under the awards section for each actor and actress on their website.

3. Adam Sandler has been nominated for 20 Razzie® nominations over the years.  He has won 5 Razzies®.

4. Sylvester Stallone has received 28 Razzie® nominations. Stallone has won 8 Razzies® in his career…..he also won Worst Actor of the decade and Worst Actor of the century Razzies®. One of his Razzies® was shared with James Cameron for their writing on Rambo: First Blood Part 2.

5. Bruce Willis and Demi Moore were married from 1987 to 2000. During that time frame they managed to star in 4 movies that won Razzies® for Worst movie(Hudson Hawk, Striptease, Color of Night and Indecent Proposal). They also managed to make 5 other movies that were nominated for Worst movie(North, Nothing But Trouble, Bonfire of the Vanities, The Scarlett Letter and Armageddon). Being a big Bruce Willis fan…..it actually hurt to type this possibly interesting fact.

6. Another great source for really bad movies are the books written by Michael Medved and his brother Harry Medved. Those books look at many movies made before 1980 and are called The Fifty Worst Movies of All Time, The Golden Turkey Awards, and The Son of the Golden Turkey Awards.

  1. hello again Lupino,
    i was certain that she got the oscar, nobody is perfect and memory is always a trouble
    thank you Lupino et à bientot

    1. Ah…the joys of getting older….the memory betrays….the eyesight gets weaker…..harder to get up in the morning…..certain foods cause havoc in the body…as Bette Davis said…”getting old is not for wuzzes.”..lol.

  2. Bruce,
    by the way on the photo i think there is somebody who won an oscar for a film which is call Lenny and her name is Valerie Perrine
    what happened to her, after the film with village People, i think she missed something or had very bad choice for the parts,-??

    1. Hello again, Pierre,

      Valerie Perrine was only nominated for an Oscar in Lenny. She was featured in Superman and Superman 2 as Lex Luthor’s girllfriend, acted on TV and occasionally in featured parts in movies like What Women Want. A note to Bruce: Miss Perrine seems to be a huge fan of Mr. Michael Caine, with whom she worked in Water in 1985: “He is without doubt the nicest human being I’ve ever worked with. I mean, what a pleasure! It would be nice if I could only do Michael Caine movies from now on. I’d be very happy”.

      1. Hey Lupino…..very good stuff on one of my favorites….Sir Michael Caine. I have not seen Water in almost 30 years. I barely remember that movie…….your comment makes me want to see it again. Thanks for the clarification on Perrine and Lenny. It is a great performance….and put Perrine in the Academy Award Nominated Actress category…..which I think is a great category to be in.

    2. Hey Pierre….the 74 year old year actress is still around…she had a role in a movie in 2016. Her glory days were in the late 1970s and early 1980s. For some reason, as a kid I always got her mixed up with Dyan Cannon. As Lupino pointed out..she did not win the Oscar but she got an Oscar nomination for Lenny….which puts her in some good company. Good stuff.
