The Snake Award is the Polish ironic anti-award for the worst cinematographic failures in Polish cinema, similar to the Golden Raspberry Awards. It is awarded annually for the previous year. For the first time it was awarded in 2012.[1] It was named after the film Curse of Snakes Valley,[2] a 1987 Polish-Soviet adventure film, a cheap knock-off of the Indiana Jones films, which was included in the list of 10 worst Polish films in 2002.[3] The award was created by Polish film critic Kamil Śmiałkowski.[4]
The award is given in several categories: "Worst film", "Worst actor", "Worst actress", etc.
