8 People You Won't Believe Won Razzie Awards
1. Donald Trump
In the same year that John Glover played Daniel Clamp, the billionaire owner of the Clamp Tower, in Gremlins 2: The New Batch, the characters real-life inspiration, Donald Trump, made a cameo in a movie whose acting, writing and directing are several rungs below Joe Dantes classic.
In fact, Ghosts Cant Do It is such a thoroughly vile waste of celluloid that it received 7 Razzie nominations from which it won 4, including Worst Picture (tied with The Adventures Of Ford Fairlane), Worst Director and Worst Actress. Trump picked up Worst Supporting Actor, and its not difficult to see why he is, after all, playing himself.
Briefly, the plot concerns a dead billionaire (Anthony Quinn) who returns in spirit form so that his wife (Bo Derek) can shop for a new body for his soul to inhabit. At one point, she takes a business meeting with Trump while receiving advice from her husbands ghost.
In this room, Trump tells her, there are knives sharp enough to cut you to the bone. And hearts cold enough to eat you as hors doeuvres.
Now isnt that the kind of guy you want to be President?
