This is very interesting, and I think it will be extremely interesting to those of you who share the love of horror like I do. Over at Retro Crush, they have begun publishing an ongoing list of The 100 Greatest Horror Movie Performances, and they are certainly digging deep to generate this list of nastiest of nasties. Here are a few from the recent gallery, give them a once over and tell us if you agree.
- #99 Kane Hodder as Jason in Friday the 13th VII, VIII, IX, and Jason X
- #94 Heather O’Rourke as Carol Anne Freeling in Poltergeist
- #93 Tom Savini as Sex Machine in From Dusk Til Dawn
- #86 Melinda Clarke as Julie Harper in The Return of the Living Dead III -so hot in a creepy way-
- #78 Randy Quaid as Nick Lamele in Parents
- #68 Daveigh Chase as Samara in The Ring
Check out the the growing list and comment your thoughts. Do you agree? Do you disagree? And who would you add?
Don’t forget to vote on the biggest bad ass in a horror flick for the Halloween top 10!

Ahh Jeff Goldblum for sure, and maybe Anthony Perkins in Psycho.
Chris Sarandon in Fright Night
Jeff Goldblum in The Fly
Jefferey Combs in Re-Animator
Juilan Sands in Warlock
Jodie Foster in Silence Of The Lambs
Rory Calhoun, Farmer Vincent in Motel Hell. Motel Hell was creepy enough, but towards the end when he goes even more psycho wearing a pigs head and swinging that chainsaw, ugh….great performance and best chainsaw useage in a horror ever.
ANd I love Vincent’s Meats, friken delicious!
I thought Nicole Kidman for The Others would have been higher. Maybe both her and Sam Neil will be listed for Dead Calm. I am sure Anthony Hopkins (Silence of the Lambs), Haley Joel Osment (The Sixth Sense), Kevin Spacey (Se7en), and Sigourney Weaver (Alien/Aliens) will be in at least the top 10.
Hello again!
I think Melinda Clake was the sexiest woman I EVER saw in a horror movie (until Angelina appears on an horror flick).
I saw that (not that good, but ok) movie many times just because of her.
I also think sucide girls site was somewhat inspired by that girl.
Thanks,
Marco
