Thanks for the update, Damien! Is it just me, or does anyone else find it funny that five of the winners have either "dark," "darkness," or "black" in their title?

I didn't realize horror had to be so...I dunno...on the nose. Titles notwithstanding, those are some genuinely fine works among that list of winners. Congrats to all of them!

Joe, yes, it is sort of funny and yes again, fine work on that list indeed!
