Vincent Price...He IS horror

As for a female...I can't think of any because it seems they PURPOSELY make them bubbleheaded and completely irrelevant...If I HAD to choose though, Geena Davis is the only actress that I can respect...and if you say "But, she isn't a HORROR actress"...I will say, "The Fly":) :cool:

Like Bloodrayne says they don't get the best roles in Horror, but I would say Pam Grier and Jennifer Tilly

I know, but other than obscure italian and english actress's Im not sure any horror actress has really made a mark on me in the same way that I remember those actors!!!

Grier was in "Ghosts of mars" as well as "Something wicked this way comes" and "Bones"

Cushing,Lee,Price, all classic examples of good actors. Bruce Cambell......ehh, I wouldn't call him a horror actor, sure the first EvIL Dead was more horror [ but he kinda sucked in that was, as far as his acting abilitys. ]but the other two were more comedy.

Female---Linnea Quigley, OK not much for acting but nice cans.
Barbara Crampton, once again....the cans.

Glenn Strange is more a Western boy, but still, he did very well as the Monster.

Also, I forgot Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing.

Seriously. I could probably go on for days about Universal horror and the actors that graced the silver screen. So many wonderful movies and so many wonderful players.

Aww, thanks! :D I hope you're right. :p Well actually one way or another, I'll be an actress. I may never be famous, but I'm going to an acting school soon and if that gets me nowhere, I'm going to make my own movies.

Yeah, one of my friends told me someone they knew(or knew of, anyway) made their own movie for about $200...that isn't expensive. :p And the movie actually done well...so it was all worth it to them.

All you really need(other than equipment, of course) is lots of fake blood and people who are willing to help you out. :) I already have a few people who want to be in my movie...and I haven't even finished writing it yet. I do need more girls, though. :o So far me and my mom are the only females that are going to be in it...haha. When the time gets closer, I'll post an ad in the newspaper and get more people...especially girls, hopefully.

06-08-2004, 02:02 AM
girls are definitely the horror champs as far as protagonists go in horror movies go... i think males have kind of dominated the antagonist role... halloween and nightmare on elm st. really fortified that
laurie strode and jamie lloyd vs. michael myers
Nancy and Alice vs. Freddy

although there are some really excellent female antagonists ... like the chicks in the craft ... faruza balk was pretty good in that
.. haha and jason's mom...

Jamie Lee Curtis ( the OLD jamie lee, from halloween 1 and 2, and not the nonsense crap from the newer stuff. i loved her, and still do. plus... she has one of the best *terror* looks when she needed to in halloween)

2nd place> Neve Campbell. many will disagree, but i've loved her in everything, of course scream 1 being the best. she's promising for a movie not meant to be really scary but more just for fun, and she pulls through perfectly. Plus she's funny as shit at the end of scream 3 ( " why don't you just stop your whining you stupid SICK MOTHER FUCKER!!!..... FUCK YOUUUUUU!"

and third> sigourney weaver, only for alien 1. she is amazing at being completely terrified, especially at the end of alien.

male> roy scheider and robert englund.

Although as in the previous post, Vincent Price and Karloff are kinda staples.
