Sorry about reviving this thread one last time. From the "Outlander" blog[We only have till this Saturday to show the film some love!] :
Now for some amazing news... Spike TV has announced the nominees for their 'Scream 2009' awards show. 'Scream 2009' is a... well it's basically a genre awards show. The various categories include best sci-fi, best fantasy, and best comic book movie. Outlander has been nominated for best Sci-fi film of 2009!

Competition will be pretty stiff seeing how many of the other nominees had *WAY* more exposure. Outlander shares the category with Star Trek, Moon, Knowing, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and Terminator: Salvation. Either way though this should give Outlander some much needed exposure. Even so, the results are really *UP TO YOU* dear readers. Voting started today on Spike TV's website and will be open until October 17th. Head over to the spike site to VOTE FOR OUTLANDER.

This nomination is nothing to slouch at though, even if Spike TV awards don't mean a lot in the grand scheme of things. Ballots for 'Scream 2009' were sent to an advisory board to pick the nominees. Movies that were eligible were pretty much anything released between August 9, 2008 and July 15, 2009 as long as they were representative of the genres included in the awards show. This year's advisory board that selected the films consisted of Tim Burton, Wes Craven, Roland Emmerich, Neil Gaiman, Frank Miller, Eli Roth, and Zack Snyder - An impressive list! So go VOTE FOR OUTLANDER!
