The night featured special tributes to honorees including Christopher Lloyd, the inaugural recipient of the Robert Forster Artist's Award, as well as writer/director Mike Flanagan, who told a wry story about emailing Campbell in the mid-'90s to ask for advice on his fledgling film career - and actually getting a reply back. 'Don't worry - everyone here is vaccinated, so if this were a horror movie, you'd be the virgin,' he told the crowd. Bruce Campbell brought jokes to the Burbank Marriott on Tuesday, where, as host of the 46th annual Saturn Awards, he presided over an evening filled with sincere appreciation for being able to even be in the same room as other people who love genre storytelling.
