1st Golden Raspberry Awards
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1st Golden Raspberry Awards were held on March 31, 1981. They were presented at John Wilson's living room alcove and recognized the worst the film industry had to offer of 1980. The event was scheduled the day before The Oscars, but John Hinckley's attempt on Ronald Reagan's life delayed the Oscars, and thus the Razzies, by a day. The recipients are denoted in bold:
