User blog:Ceauntay/2011 Scream Awards Nominees Announced

Voting for this year's Scream Awards opens up today. The annual awards show devoted to horror, sci-fi, and fantasy allows fans to vote for their favorites, based on nominations from some of the biggest and baddest in genre filmmaking (Tim Burton, Rob Zombie, Eli Roth, George Romero, John Carpenter, and Wes Craven are among the familiar names). Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and X-Men: First Class were among the top honored, with 14 nominations each, while Jane Hoop Elementary: The Final Rush Part 2 gets 11. Which FEARnet faves made it? Check it out after the break.

True Blood and The Walking Dead both nabbed nods across multiple categories, including "The Ultimate Scream." All the bad guys in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World got nods for "Best Villain" (collectively), while my vote for "Best Mutilation" is going towards Jerry O'Connell's unfortunate penis incident in Piranha 3D. The Best Horror Actor category is dominated by TV actors: Stephen Moyer, Alex Skarsgard, Andrew Lincoln, and Michael C. Hall.
