Last month we launched the first annual Rabbit In Red Awards to celebrate all the horror favs we’ve posted in our first year. Over 500 votes were cast in categories like Horror Film of the Year, Horror Art of the Year, Favourite Scream Queen and more. Here are the results…
Horror Hunk of the Year
Winner:
Zeke Tyler / Josh Hartnett in The Faculty (1998)
At first, it may seem like Zeke is just a badass doing a victory round due to his failure to show up for finals. Ultimately he proves to be one of the most intelligent people in the school. He uses his drugs to help figure out who has turned alien and also to destroy them. Smart and rebellious make for a fun combo and who can resist Zeke’s dark eyes, sexy voice and messy hair?
2nd place:
Ash Williams / Bruce Campbell in The Evil Dead (1981)
3rd place:
Nick Jones / Chad Michael Murray in House of Wax (2005)
Nominees Included:
Patrick Bateman / Christian Bale in American Psycho
Ron Grady / Robert Rusler in A Nightmare on Elm Street 2
Ryan / Trey Songz in Texas Chainsaw 3D
Tommy Jarvis / John Shepherd in Friday the 13th: Part 5
Glenn Lantz / Johnny Depp in A Nightmare on Elm Street
Scream Queen of the Year
Winner:
Laurie Strode / Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween (2018)
When news that Jamie Lee Curtis would be reprising her role as Laurie Strode reached audiences, it basically broke the internet. After Resurrection it was hard to believe she’d ever return to the franchise but our wishes were met this past October. Laurie was back and more of a fighter than ever. Her battle with Michael in this latest instalment solidifies her as the ultimate scream queen AND final girl.
2nd place:
Gale Weathers / Courteney Cox in Scream 2 (1997)
3rd place:
Helen Shivers / Sarah Michelle Gellar in I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997)
Nominees Included:
Erin / Jessica Biel in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Marion Chambers / Nancy Stephens in Halloween 2
Carrie White / Chloë Grace Moretz in Carrie
Ruby Baker / Leelee Sobieski in The Glass House
Samantha Thomas / Tamara Glynn in Halloween 5
Horror Art of the Year
Winner:
Ghostface/Scream Biro Illustration by @chrisrwright
Chris R Wright’s series of sexy killers were a hit among igers this year and Ghostface was one of our favs in the series. The “Sid” carved into his perfect pec is a nice touch! Check out more of Wright’s work on his Facebook page here.
2nd place:
Little Loomis by @zc.lazer
3rd place:
Halloween Freddy by @zacharyjacksonbrownart
Nominees Included:

Flashback Film of the Year
Winner:
Scream 2 (1997)
Many would agree that Scream 2 is one of the few horror sequels that lives up to its original. For Sidney, Dewey and Gale the nightmare is far from over and they are joined by an all star cast including Jada Pinkett Smith, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Timothy Olyphant and many others.
2nd place:
Halloween H20 (1998)
3rd place:
The Fog (1980)
Nominees Included:
Urban Legend

Maniac
Horror Film of the Year
Winner:
Halloween (2018)
It’s been 40 years since Michael terrorized the streets of Haddonfield on Halloween night. Now he’s back and more evil than ever. Fans were ecstatic at the news that John Carpenter and Jamie Lee Curtis would be involved in H40 and this new film is a true love letter to the original.
2nd place:
Hereditary (2018)
3rd place:
A Quiet Place (2018)
