The 17th Annual Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Awards Are HERE - Cast Your Votes NOW!



THE RONDO HATTON CLASSIC HORROR AWARDS ARE GO! VOTE NOW!

The Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Awards have been on my radar for at least a decade now, and part of me always wanted to win one: Partially for bragging rights (don't judge, everyone's ego needs a little boost every now and again), but mostly for vindication. (Ha! You see?! Writing about movies and Blu-rays IS a worthwhile pursuit!) Imagine my complete shock when The B-Movie Film Vault showed up as a nominee last year for BEST WEBSITE OR BLOG OF 2017! Here's a quick video of my reaction:


Now I did not even come CLOSE to winning a Rondo (I had some pretty stiff competition from much larger sites that have writing staffs), but just to be included in the running was amazing! This year I was hoping that The Vault would get nominated again, but sadly that did not happen. I'm assuming it was because I didn't create much content throughout 2018 on the main site. (But in my defense, I was very active on social media AND updated The News Vault quite frequently, so that has to count for something, right?) Oh well... there's always next year right?

Unless..... enough of you Vault Dwellers write yours truly (Jordan Garren, the "Vault Master" of The B-Movie Film Vault) in as BEST WEBSITE/BLOG OF 2018 OR BEST WRITER OF 2018. I know that's a huuuuuuge stretch, but if you are a frequent visitor/reader and like what I've been doing at both the main site (and The B-Movie News Vault appendage), I would greatly appreciate a write-in vote! It most likely won't get me anywhere this year (unless a few thousand of you cast votes) but it will help get The Vault back on the ballot next year.... maybe!

To vote, copy the ballot below into an e-mail, and send it to David Colton at taraco@aol.com by APRIL 20, 2019!

Here's the current ballot for this year's Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Awards:
