Start poking around Oscar-nominated movies and you'll quickly see how many that aren't fright flicks have "devil" in their titles: The Devil and Miss Jones, The Devil Came at Night, The Devil Dancer, The Devil Pays Off, The Devil's Holiday, Devil Take Us, The Devil Wears Prada, Four Devils, and Traffic With the Devil among others. But there's never been any real love for between the Academy and Horror. The Haunting and The Innocents, two of the finest ghost movies ever made, garnered no nominations. The Uninvited (just as good) earned only one for Best Black-and-White Cinematography. A few scary pics have got past the Academy's rope and bouncer thank goodness. Here are some of the highlights.

1931/1932: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
This picture only won a single award, but it was nominated for two others (a big deal considering that this was the fifth Academy Awards ceremony and there were only twelve awards total). Fredric March took home the statuette for Best Actor but he had to share it with The Champ's Wallace Beery. March won by a single vote; the rules then deemed that a tie.
