Oscars criticized for the lack of horror films in the nominations

In the entire history of the award, only one thriller has received it.

Actress Mia Goth, famous for participating in the horror films "X" and "Pearl", criticized the organizers of the Oscar ceremony for not paying attention to the projects in this direction.

According to the artist, the behind-the-scenes struggle at the Oscars has long led to the fact that only those who have someone to lobby receive nominations and awards.

As for horror films, most of them are low-budget, and there is simply no one to “stand up” for them.

"I think the Oscars need to change and expand the areas of films that can take part in the ceremony."

The relationship between the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and horror films has really not developed for a long time.

In the entire history of the Oscars, only six such films have received a nomination, and only one film, The Silence of the Lambs, in 1991, received an award. Yes, this masterpiece, rather, belongs to the genre of thrillers, rather than classic horror films.
