Did a search and did not really find anything, though i am sure to be proven wrong. Just watched Wrong Turn, and staring at Eliza Dushku for 85 minutes got me thinking. i think my vote goes for Naomi Watts, though Sheri Moon plays a pretty vicious vixen. As long as they have done a true horror flick then they qualify in my book. Ashe.

Karen Black

Stuck
Compartment
Dr. Rage
House of 1000 Corpses
Soulkeeper
Oliver Twisted

Not only does she have a long and checkered career in crappy low-budget horror films, she's a bit of a horror herself....

I really like Karen Black (way back to her Killee Fish/Trilogy of Terror/Burnt Offering days) and was very pissed when I heard she wasn't coming back for the House 1000 corpses remake - but weirdly when TDR did come out I actually prefered Leslie Easterbrook in the role of Mother Firefly (maybe I just prefered the character rather than the actress).

Karen's defiinitely had an amazing career- both highs and lows. Ever seen Auntie Lee's Meat Pies?

Nope - is it as bad as it looks..

I loved her in Five Easy Pieces - i need to watch that again..

She's a true 'psychotronic' actress (as Michale Weldon used to say).

Yep, it's deliciously bad.

Sheri Moon, sorry gotta steal yours, but she's pretty damn terrifying
Danielle Harris, so much Halloween goodness

No one else finds Sherri Moon to be incredibly obnoxious? Her voice is just... GRATING.

...

Gotta agree on Karen Black, though Miss Eliza is a RIDICULOUS piece of ass... It's too bad she can't act.

Naomi Watts is also fantastic, but not as iconic as Black... And not as hot as Miss Eliza... But she can definitely act, though.

How 'bout Mila Jovovich? Resident Evil Hottie. Kate Beckinsale? Or does it not count if they're not victims...? Or does it not count if they're action films and not horror...

Megan Fox - Jennifer's Body. Actress AND temptress.

Grrrrr....

Sheri Moon is damaged goods... and I have to agree with ChronoGrl; That voice is pure tragedy...

Totally. What's happened with her? I haven't heard anything about her in ages.
She's the epitome of the modern "Scream Queen".

Melissa George is fuckin' great too.

I used to stick up for Asia Argento but now I find myself agreeing with her detractors... she can't act for shit.

She's nice to look at for sure but her acting is pretty deadpan.
