Suicide Squad can now call themselves an Oscar-winning film. The film nabbed the Oscar for best makeup last night, proving that even a bad film can be honored for something. Alessandro Bertolazzi, Giorgio Gregorini, and Christopher Nelson were the minds behind the makeup design of the film, and the work that these guys did is nothing short of epic.

Get ready for the film to use mention this honor overtime that it is advertised. It still doesn’t take away from Jared Leto’s horrific performance as the Joker, but it seems as though the people of the Academy liked Ghetto Clown Prince more than most people. Squad went on to rake in the dough at the box office, despite what you could call ‘mixed’ reviews.

U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?
