Won: Worst Original Song (from A Nightmare On Elm Street 5: The Dream Child) - 1990 The increasingly rubbish sequels to horror classic A Nightmare On Elm Street developed a tendency towards heavy rock and metal soundtracks. The Razzies responded to this trend with a stack of Worst Original Song awards and nominees. For ropey fifth installment The Dream Child (it's the one where the series tries to ditch camp and go darker again), the studio asked Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson for an original contribution. The song that he wrote, Bring Your Daughter...To The Slaughter may have won the Razzie, but what was recorded by Dickinson's band also became an enduring fan favourite hit. Up against Cliff Richard's maudlin festive single Saviour's Day in the British charts, Bring Your Daughter would become Iron Maiden's only UK number 1. Another song that Bring Your Daughter beat to the Razzie, The Ramones' Pet Sematary, written to accompany the mediocre Stephen King adaptation of the same name, also turned out to be that band's biggest hit of the era.
