Has a horror movie ever won an Oscar in any category?

IndieQueen

The Silence of the Lambs won Best Picture in 1991. I guess it's a matter of opinion whether it's a horror film or not. Bram Stoker's Dracula won for Costume design and makeup in 1992 An American Werewolf in London won for best makeup in 1981.

Edited to add another: The Exorcist for sound in 1973 Source: http://www.oscar.com/legacy/pastwinners/score2.html Mar 10 04, 3:36 PM

I didn't go back very far but I found several which won Oscars for visual effects or make up An American Werewolf in London (1981) The Birds (1963) The Fly (1986) Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992) Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994) I expect there are an AWFUL lot more... Mar 10 04, 3:47 PM
