38th Saturn Award Winners - Complete List

by Leroy Douresseaux

The Saturn Awards are presented annually by the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films to honor the top works in science fiction, fantasy, and horror in film, television, and home video.  Last year, I posted the nominations for the 38th Saturn Awards, but not the winners.  Well, the nominations for the 39th Saturn Awards were announces, so that reminded me of my slip-up.

The qualifying period for the 38th annual Saturn Awards was Feb. 1, 2011, to Jan. 31, 2012. This year’s Saturn Awards were presented on July 26, 2012 in Burbank.
