Reed to honor and recognize films often overlooked by mainstream awards.
Close behind with 4 noms apiece were American Horror Story: Coven (FX), Hannibal (NBC), Under the Dome (CBS), and The Walking Dead (AMC) … while new breakthrough hits Bates Motel (A&E), Continuum (SyFy), The Americans (FX). The Blacklist (NBC) and Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (ABC) jump into the fray as well. The Academy was founded in 1972 by noted film historian Dr. Donald A. Reed to honor and recognize films often overlooked by mainstream awards. Over the years, the Academy has expanded its reach to include recognizing excellence in television and home entertainment, as well as other genres, including adventure, thriller and action. Robert Holguin, President of the Organization says, “This has been an incredible year for genre entertainment which I affectionately refer to as enhanced or exaggerated reality. The films and shows we honor continue to lead in box-office success showcasing a cadre of great talent helming today’s works of wonder. I’m thrilled to see the organization reach its’ fourth decade of dedication to the most imaginative creations on the silver screen and fantastic visions on the television screen”. This year’s Saturn Awards will be presented in June in Burbank in California. For a complete list of nominations and more information about the Academy, visit www.saturnawards.org.
