And the worst picture of the year goes to …
Kirk Cameron’s “Saving Christmas,” according to the 35th annual Razzie Awards.
The Golden Raspberry Awards, the parody awards show which presents “the Worst Achievements in Film” of the year, were announced ahead of the Academy Awards late Saturday. Kirk Cameron was the big winner (loser?) of the Razzies, racking up worst picture, worst actor, worst screenplay and worst screen combo. “Saving Christmas,” the movie in which Kirk Cameron plays himself, only has a 1/5 star rating on IMDb; on Rotten Tomatoes you’re looking at a sad 0% tomatometer rating.
