Richard Grieco Fans - the 4th Annual Flicker Awards are For You!

If you have enough of an interest in Richard Grieco to be reading this blog, you won't want to miss your opportunity to vote in MatchFlick's 4th Annual Flicker Awards. Both AE: Apocalypse Earth and A House is Not a Home are heavily represented among the nominees. A House is Not a Home--which Richard co-produced--has four nominations:

Best Breakout Film
Best Boogeyman (the house itself)
Scariest Film
Best Haunted House Film

I haven't seen a lot of press surrounding this film, but it did take Best Horror Picture at the Burbank Film Festival when it premiered in September.

I know a little more about AE: Apocalypse Earth, having actually seen the movie and also interviewed writer/director Thunder Levin. A year ago, you couldn't have convinced me that I'd get excited about the category of Best Mockbuster Twin, but AE: Apocalypse Earth truly deserves a win in this category. If you have any doubt, check out this earlier post in which I compared The Asylum's knock-off to Will Smith's After Earth.

The second AE: Apocalypse Earth nomination goes to Costa Rican supermodel Bali Rodriguez in the category of Best Warrior Woman.

It takes just a minute or two to vote, and they're not requiring registration or anything you might want to avoid--why not take a moment right now and help ensure that Richard's films take five of these awards (6 if we count Bali's).
