The Oscars ceremony wasn’t the only big, movie-related awards event happening over the past weekend. The Golden Raspberry Award Foundation also announced the winners of its somewhat dubious honors the day before the Academy Awards kicked off. Let’s just say that if winning a “Razzie” was the sort of thing actors and filmmakers celebrated, Kirk Cameron would’ve been partying like a rock star.

The widely panned Saving Christmas and its star took home four Razzies during a ceremony held Saturday (February 21) evening in Hollywood — which would be a pretty good night if the Golden Raspberry Awards weren’t created to call out the worst films and performances of the year.

Not only did Saving Christmas “win” the Worst Picture category, but it also earned Cameron a Razzie in the Worst Actor category, earned screenwriters Darren Doane and Cheston Hervey a Razzie in the Worst Screenplay category, and even earned Cameron another Razzie in the Worst Screen Combo category, which was won by “Kirk Cameron and his ego.” Ouch.

The week between Christmas and New Year's is the most awkward one of the year. Why? Well, personally, I don't know what to do with myself. All the Christmas festivities are over, but it's too early to start those resolutions. (And no, I'm not going to start my annual New Year's diet early. Someone has to eat those leftovers.)

The best way to spend time right now is to catch up on things you missed doing in the last 12 months. For me, that's watching movies I heard about and somehow missed watching like Red Rooms or The Order. Along those lines, the following list contains three worthwhile movies streaming on Netflix that are worth your time and attention on the final weekend of the year.
