Honoring the scare givers
HERE’S one awards show where Helen Mirren and Tom Hanks had no shot at a sweep of the honors: Spike TV’s Scream 2007, which honored gore fests and comic books over period pieces and dramas. 1.Rob Zombie, left, Slash and Alice Cooper rocked out at the wild affair, which kicked off with fake entrails exploding into the crowd. “It’s not your mama’s award show!” Harrison Ford aptly said as he picked up his Hero Award at the Greek Theatre on Oct. 19. While a 2.ghoulish winged creature swooped in to snatch an audience member, there was also plenty of pretty to go around with 3.Megan Fox snagging Sci Fi Siren honors and Rosario Dawson presenting her “Grindhouse” directors, 4.Quentin Tarantino, left, and Robert Rodriguez,with a pair of weapon-like statues.
