question that horror movie hosts 1108 00:50:36,642 --> 00:50:41,038 have played an integral part in introducing audiences 1109 00:50:41,168 --> 00:50:47,087 to this genre that we love, even if

welcome longtime Fangoriacontributor 1283 00:58:08,963 --> 00:58:12,227 and my good friend Mike Gingold. 1284 00:58:12,358 --> 00:58:14,752 -For over three decade, the Fangoria Chainsaw Awards 1285 00:58:14,839 --> 00:58:16,710 have been celebrating the best and bloodiest 1286 00:58:16,797 --> 00:58:18,190 of the horror genre. 1287 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:19,452 It's hard to believe it's been that long 1288 00:58:19,539 --> 00:58:21,802 since our first ceremony in 1992, 1289 00:58:21,846 --> 00:58:23,412 in an L.A. convention 1290 00:58:23,543 --> 00:58:25,763 when "The Silence of the Lambs" was the big winner. 1291 00:58:25,850 --> 00:58:27,678 We couldn't get any of the winners to appear at that show, 1292 00:58:27,765 --> 00:58:30,028 but they all did send acceptance speeches. 1293 00:58:30,071 --> 00:58:31,856 We didn't get speeches from the winners 1294 00:58:31,943 --> 00:58:34,859 for next year's big film, "Bram Stoker's Dracula." 1295 00:58:34,902 --> 00:58:37,296 But the following year, not only did Sam Raimi 1296 00:58:37,383 --> 00:58:38,950 and the rest of the "Army of Darkness" team 1297 00:58:39,037 --> 00:58:40,908 show up to accept their awards for that film, 1298 00:58:40,952 --> 00:58:43,607 but Peter Jackson actually moved up some L.A. meetings 1299 00:58:43,694 --> 00:58:45,957 so he could travel from New Zealand to be at the show 1300 00:58:46,044 --> 00:58:48,437 and accept a pair of awards for "Dead Alive." 1301 00:58:48,525 --> 00:58:50,004 Other major horror names 1302 00:58:50,091 --> 00:58:51,615 who showed up for ceremonies after that 1303 00:58:51,658 --> 00:58:53,704 included Wes Craven and Heather Langenkamp 1304 00:58:53,834 --> 00:58:55,662 for "Wes Craven's New Nightmare" 1305 00:58:55,749 --> 00:58:57,882 and Stuart Gordon for "Castle Freak." 1306 00:58:57,969 --> 00:59:00,928 Unfortunately, the awards were discontinued at the conventions 1307 00:59:01,059 --> 00:59:03,061 right as horror was about to make its big comeback 1308 00:59:03,191 --> 00:59:05,629 in December 1996 with "Scream." 1309 00:59:05,759 --> 00:59:08,109 But as long as the horror genre continues to thrive 1310 00:59:08,196 --> 00:59:11,330 and showcase great performances and great filmmaking, 1311 00:59:11,460 --> 00:59:13,724 the Chainsaw Awards will be there to honor them. 1312 00:59:13,767 --> 00:59:15,813 And even as the future of the Chainsaw Awards 1313 00:59:15,900 --> 00:59:16,857 continues to be written, 1314 00:59:16,988 --> 00:59:18,729 I can confidently say 1315 00:59:18,816 --> 00:59:20,818 that the show will always unapologetically champion 1316 00:59:20,905 --> 00:59:22,559 not only the movies that we love, 1317 00:59:22,689 --> 00:59:25,083 but the voices of the fans who love them. 1318 00:59:25,170 --> 00:59:26,954 Now, with the publication's firm commitment 1319 00:59:27,041 --> 00:59:29,740 to shining a spotlight on all aspects of the genre, 1320 00:59:29,827 --> 00:59:31,872 it's my distinct honor to introduce to you 1321 00:59:31,916 --> 00:59:35,267 Fangoria'scurrent editor-in-chief, Phil Nobile Jr. 1322 00:59:35,397 --> 00:59:37,312 -When I read Fangoria as a kid, 1323 00:59:37,399 --> 00:59:39,663 its biggest impact on me was the way it put names and faces 1324 00:59:39,706 --> 00:59:41,055 to horror creators, 1325 00:59:41,099 --> 00:59:42,448 not just the writers and directors 1326 00:59:42,535 --> 00:59:44,058 and makeup effects artists, 1327 00:59:44,145 --> 00:59:46,321 but the extended teams of craftspeople and crew 1328 00:59:46,408 --> 00:59:48,149 who brought those films to life. 1329 00:59:48,236 --> 00:59:49,977 By showing me that all these nightmarish visions 1330 00:59:50,064 --> 00:59:52,197 were the result of the hard work of regular folks, 1331 00:59:52,284 --> 00:59:54,242 it made the films themselves more special, 1332 00:59:54,329 --> 00:59:56,375 and it made the people behind them more real. 1333 00:59:56,462 --> 00:59:58,769 And of course, that's what the Chainsaw Awards are all about, 1334 00:59:58,856 --> 01:00:00,553 but maybe no category more so 1335 01:00:00,640 --> 01:00:02,729 than the Editorial Eye on the Future, 1336 01:00:02,816 --> 01:00:04,862 or the Editor's Eyeball for short. 1337 01:00:04,992 --> 01:00:06,733 When we introduced this award two years ago, 1338 01:00:06,777 --> 01:00:08,779 the idea was it would be sort of a Best New Artist, 1339 01:00:08,822 --> 01:00:10,476 rising star in horror kind of thing. 1340 01:00:10,563 --> 01:00:12,130 It was designed to tell you 1341 01:00:12,217 --> 01:00:14,306 that these are the Fango-approved creators 1342 01:00:14,436 --> 01:00:16,525 to keep an eye on in the years to come. 1343 01:00:16,613 --> 01:00:17,918 And that's still the case this year, 1344 01:00:17,962 --> 01:00:19,790 but the focus is a little different. 1345 01:00:19,877 --> 01:00:21,400 Both of this year's recipients are doing crucial work 1346 01:00:21,530 --> 01:00:23,184 for the future of cinema, 1347 01:00:23,271 --> 01:00:25,665 but they're looking forward by moving backward. 1348 01:00:25,796 --> 01:00:27,232 It's exciting and even important work 1349 01:00:27,362 --> 01:00:28,886 that we all benefit from. 1350 01:00:28,973 --> 01:00:30,757 Our first recipient is a young cinematographer 1351 01:00:30,844 --> 01:00:32,585 whose work is part of a growing, stubborn wave 1352 01:00:32,629 --> 01:00:34,282 in independent moviemaking -- 1353 01:00:34,369 --> 01:00:36,937 one that works to keep films on film. 1354 01:00:36,981 --> 01:00:38,678 If you're a Shudder viewer -- 1355 01:00:38,765 --> 01:00:40,332 and if you're watching this, I imagine you are -- 1356 01:00:40,419 --> 01:00:42,290 you've seen her beautiful 16mm cinematography 1357 01:00:42,377 --> 01:00:44,118 in Travis Stevens' "A Wounded Fawn." 1358 01:00:44,205 --> 01:00:47,121 As rich and lovely as it looks on streaming or on Blu, 1359 01:00:47,208 --> 01:00:48,645 when projected on the big screen, 1360 01:00:48,732 --> 01:00:50,342 the film's surreal, dreamlike imagery 1361 01:00:50,472 --> 01:00:52,649 made the audience gasp out loud. 1362 01:00:52,736 --> 01:00:54,520 As she continues to advocate for celluloid 1363 01:00:54,607 --> 01:00:56,174 and works to keep the cinematic experience 1364 01:00:56,261 --> 01:00:59,133 in touch with its acetate and emulsion roots, 1365 01:00:59,177 --> 01:01:00,308 we're looking forward to many more 1366 01:01:00,352 --> 01:01:02,180 gasp-inducing moments from her. 1367 01:01:02,310 --> 01:01:04,399 This year's first Editor's Eyeball Award 1368 01:01:04,486 --> 01:01:06,793 goes to Ksusha Genenfeld. 1369 01:01:06,924 --> 01:01:09,361 -Ah!
