For no easily discernable reason, National Hitchcock Day falls each year on March 12, in honor of filmmaker extraordinaire Alfred Hitchcock. The Master of Suspense was as well informed on the intricacies of the human psyche as he was on the limitations of the human bladder. His rich, dark, and masterfully crafted stories have largely stood the test of time to remain among the best in cinema’s history.
In 1964, Alfred Hitchcock was honored with a prestigious Monstey Award. Today, fifty years later, we honor a spooky new group of recipients with their own Monstey Awards.
Our congratulations to the distinguished recipients of the 209th Annual Monstey Awards!
