2017 Razzie Awards

This is for the WORST films of the year. They are held the night before the Oscars. And this year Dinesh Deloser's Hillary's America was the big winner (loser).

Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice dominated the 37th annual satirical awards show. The two films combined to "win" in every category except for worst supporting actress, which went to Kristen Wiig for her botoxed fashionista character in Zoolander No. 2.

Director Dinesh D'Souza's anti-Hillary Clinton film took home four Razzies, including worst picture, beating out Batman v Superman, Gods of Egypt, Bad Grandpa, Zoolander No. 2 and Independence Day: Resurgence. D'Souza also earned himself personal honors for worst director and worst actor - D'Souza played himself in the film. D'Souza was a good sport about his "win", recording a self-shot video in which he claimed the award, saying, "The reason you're giving it to me is because you're very upset that [Donald] Trump won." The film's lead actress, Becky Turner, also won worst actress for her portrayal of the former Democratic presidential candidate.
