Actress/hostess AMY MOTTA is just so delectable! With her always immaculately groomed hair and luscious bluish eyes, i would like her to be christened ‘SUPERMODEL’.

Hot Actress #470 – Nicole Kruex: Scream Queen
I may be SHY but after much DISCURSION, I’ve come to the realization that If I were living right NEXT DOOR to her, I’ll be in LUST with the distinctively beguiling NICOLE KRUEX. Ifyou didn’t catch on yet, I’ve just mentioned some of her films (All Caps) she’s appeared in or will headline pretty soon. Have you visited the NICOLE KRUEX OFFICIAL SITE yet?? I’mblown away by how gorgeous she looks in cosplay, albeit a more morbid version and I seriously hope her Anime-Horror mashup “Harajaku Homicide” makes it to screens everywhere. Withtitles such ‘Scream Queen Of The Month’ and ‘Fright Girl Of The Month’, NICOLE rightly belongs in the horror genre as a visual feast we can’t stop craving. Click here for more… |
LA Shorts Fest 2013 Spotlight: Blonde Bombshell Jessica Mathews
Being beautiful and brainy is a heady combo which are traits the multi-talented JESSICA MATHEWS possesses in opulence. For that very fact, I’ve actually included the bikini photo of her (above) for good measure…:) Affirmation of the allure of an actress is always a good thing and JESSICA does indeed have the semblance of a temptress. She does indeed play one in the short film “The Big Meet” that tells of a screenwriter who stumbles upon the killer pitch. As Morgan, she’s of two women who seduce the screenwriter into committing a grisly murder which serves as the inspiration for his story. JESSICA is also Producer extraordinaire in this gem of a crime thriller that has enough elements of the dark comedy we so often get hooked on. She’s been called a Creative Visionary and people who have worked with her are constantly showering her with compliments. I’ve been longing to give praise to her for the longest time and on Sep 12, the day The LA Shorts Fest comes to a close is an opportune moment to feature such a remarkable personality.
Ingrid Pitt – Scream queens
One of the loveliest Hammer girls, Ingrid Pitt (born 21 November 1937) is an actress best known for her work in horror films of the 1960s and 1970s. It was her work with Hammer Film Productions that elevated her to cult figure status.

Below: Where Eagles dares
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Sarah Michelle Gellar, is an American film and television actress. She became widely known for her role as Buffy Summers on the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Her version of the teen queen slayer made her an object of obsessive self-pleasuring among guys but has been in a score of horror movies as I Know What You Did Last Summer, Scream 2, The Grudge, The Grudge 2, The Return.
Gotta admire her in the lovely Wonderwoman costume from the MTV Movie Awards with Jack Black at her side.
Mary Elisabeth Winstead
One of the newbies but she has been in quite a few horror movies so far, not as prolific as the rest but getting there, shame that we didn’t see more of her in Death Proof (check out the cheerleader outfit, hubba hubba… 🙂 )
Scare Cred: The Ring Two, Final Destination 3, Black Christmas, Grindhouse
Sexy Julie Strain
One of the few stars I have actually meet, was working for a game developer company and on our geek trip to E3 in Los Angeles, she was doing some autographs, have a picture with me and her (she is tall as hell… I look like a midget beside her), but such a nice person. Julie Strain, with credits on more than 90 movies and videotapes, has been called "Queen of the B Movies". She is a genuine cult heroine. Her series of action/adventure and fantasy movies have earned her a fan base that many mainstream stars envy. She is a star attraction of calendars, posters and greeting cards.
A favourite of mine is the many Heavy Metal covers she has posed for.
Jamie Lee Curtis (Horror month)
Jamie Lee Curtis (born November 22, 1958) is an American actress and author. She was initially known as a "scream queen" because of her starring roles in many horror films early in her career, such as Halloween, The Fog, Prom Night and Terror Train. But she is an amazing actress and with Halloween she did really kick start the female hero into the horror genre.
I just so love this striptease scene from True Lies, both so sexy and damn funny.
Janet Leigh
Janet Leigh (July 6, 1927 – October 3, 2004) was an American actress and appeared in several popular films over the following decade, including Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho (1960).
She achieved her most lasting recognition for her performance as the doomed Marion Crane in Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho(1960). For this role she was awarded the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. She continued to appear occasionally in films and television, including two performances with her daughter Jamie Lee Curtis in The Fog (1980) and Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998).
It gotta be one of the most famous scenes in movie history.
The girl she is holding is her daughter Jamie Lee Curtis.
Asia Argento (Horror month)
From birth, it was practically guaranteed that Asia Argento would grow up to be someone interesting. She was born into an Italian horror movie dynasty, for a start. Her father, Dario Argento, has made some of the blackest and bloodiest movies of the genre – slasher flicks like Suspiria, Profondo Rosso, and Tenebre. Her mother, Daria Nicolodi, an actress, met a gruesome end in many of them. The only things her father would read to her at bedtime were his movie scripts, and as a treat on her sixth birthday, little Asia was allowed to watch Poltergeist. Growing up Argento was clearly a barrel of laughs. “My father did horror movies and my mother was always being killed in these movies – but my childhood was not as extreme as you would think,” says the 30-year-old Asia. “I had a certain detachment from it, and a lot of pride. I thought it was really cool.”
She started her acting career when she was only nine years old. Since then she’s been in over fifteen movies, she has won two ‘DAVID DI DONATELLO’ (the italian oscar), two ‘CIACK’, an italian ‘GOLDEN GLOBE’ when she was only twelve, and a ‘GROLLA D’ORO’. She acted in French and in English.
The above movie was just so aweome, love George A Romero to bits…
Fay Wray
Well, there really isn’t any other way to start posting about the great scream queens than with the truly 1st scream queen.
Born in Cardston, Alberta in 1907, Fay Wray later moved to Arizona. At the age of 14, she went to California dreaming of a movie career and before long, began picking up small parts in westerns and comedy shorts. In 1926, Erich von Stronheim cast Wray as the female lead in The Wedding March – her own all-time personal favourite role. Shortly after, she played opposite Gary Cooper in the war drama, Legion of the Condemned and was re-teamed with him for 1928’s The First Kiss.
But it was the classic "beauty and the beast" film, King Kong (1933) that secured Fay Wray’s place in film history.Wray was cast as an actress who becomes the love object of a monster gorilla. After a rampage in the streets of New York, Kong scales the Empire State Building with Fay Wray in his hairy hands.
After her death in August 2004, at the age of 96, the lights at the Empire State Building were dimmed in her memory.
Getting your own stamp, how cool isn’t that.
Scream queen definition
Ok, before I start splashing up the great scream queens of our time on the blog, let’s check the definition:
From Wikipedia:
Scream queen is an actress who has become associated with horror films, either through an appearance in a notable entry in the genre as a frequent victim or through constant appearances as the female protagonist. Fay Wray is noted as the first scream queen, while Jamie Lee Curtis is noted as a woman who helped revive the scream queen title with her performance in the popular slasher film Halloween.
The term "scream queen" is more specifically used to refer to the "attractive young damsels-in-distress" characters that have appeared in a number of films in the horror genre. Lloyd Kaufman, co-founder of Troma Entertainment, noted that being a scream queen is "more than just crying and having ketchup thrown on you. You not only have to be attractive, but you also have to have a big brain. You have to be frightened, you have to be sad, you have to be romantic." Ryan Stewart, of cinematical.com, has described a scream queen as someone who has "given an impactful, memorable performance in a horror film". Debbie Rochon, often described as a scream queen herself, wrote in an article originally published in GC Magazine that "a true Scream Queen isn’t The Perfect Woman. She’s sexy, seductive, but most importantly ‘attainable’ to the average guy. Or so it would seem."
And although the earlier scream queens might be woman that "just had to look pretty and shriek a lot until the hero of the film got around to save (them)", the later scream queens "showcase women worrying about something other than a guy…unless said guy is the one trying to kill them", with some of them "wreaking vengeance" by defeating the villain.
So yes, in the early movies, yeah they were just there really for show but I so love the ones we get today, the kick-ass ladies in the horror movies who wreaks havoc towards the villains. I salute them… if they are good looking, it’s just an added bonus. 🙂
