Tree monster from From Hell It Came (1957)
Most Amazing Franchise
Friday the 13th (I'm Amazed that Jason is following the Muppets)
Most Outstanding Music for a B-movie
I'm not sure about this, usually b-movies steal music from other movies. Like Tarkan Versus The Vikings uses some music from 2001.
Most Awful Yet Awesome Quote
Nilbog! It's goblin spelled backwards! This is their kingdom! (from Troll 2)
Best B-Actor
Bruce Campbell (The Evil Dead and Moontrap)
Best B-Actress
Linda Blair (I like her in Hell Night and Night Patrol)
Most Compelling Poster Artwork
(http://lishacauthen.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/i-walked-with-a-zombie-poster11.jpeg)
I Walked with a Zombie (I think Val Lewton would typically have the name of movie and poster art made before the script)
Career Achievement For Creature FX Artist
Dennis Muren for Equinox (1970)
Greatest Bad Movie Of All Time
Return of the Boogeyman (1994) (V) (for flashbacking the dropping the radio in the bathtub over 20 times!!!)
