Re: Finnish culture and entertainment Renny Harlin continues to make us proud...
His The Legend of Hercules received 6 nominations in Golden Raspberry Awards - including Harlin's 5th nomination for Worst Director (though he's never won). Only Brian De Palma has as many nominations in the category.
This is 7th film by Harlin to be nominated in at least one category and 4th to be nominated Worst Picture (The Adventures of Ford Fairlane won 1990).
