5. Rose McGowan
McGowan dabbled in genre film in the '90s, but really gained attention and earned credibility with horror fans via starring roles in both films featured in Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez’ double-feature Grindhouse. Rose McGowan brings a "take no prisoners" kind of badass quality to her roles. Notable roles include Scream, Death Proof, and Planet Terror.
4. Angela Bettis
Lucky McKee is largely to thank for Angela Bettis’ status as a genre regular. McKee featured her in his film May and also in his Masters of Horror episode, Sick Girl. Bettis has a vulnerability that immediately endears audiences to her. Other notable roles include Toolbox Murders, Carrie (2002), and Lucky McKee’s The Woman.
3. Amber Heard
The gorgeous Amber Heard broke on to the horror scene with the titular role in All The Boys Love Mandy Lane. She has continued to work regularly in horror, as well as mainstream cinema since. She has a sultry, yet down-to-Earth vibe. Other notable roles include And Soon the Darkness, Zombieland and The Ward.
2. Danielle Harris
Danielle Harris grew up making horror films. Her first film roles were in Halloween 4 and 5 and she has worked steadily, since. Many of her subsequent roles have been in horror films. She has recently tried her hand at directing with the upcoming horror-comedy Among Friends. Other notable roles include Urban Legend and Hatchet II.
1. Jamie Lee Curtis
Jamie Lee Curtis is widely regarded as the ultimate scream queen. Her portrayal of "final girl" Laurie Strode in Halloween is pitch perfect. She deftly portrayed an empowered female with a measure of susceptibility. Although, she never set out to be a genre regular, Curtis has always been good natured about getting her start in horror. Other notable roles include Halloween II, Prom Night, Terror Train and Halloween: H20.
Honorable mention goes to Dee Wallace Stone, Felissa Rose, and Neve Campbell.
Amber Heard

well id for 1 agree that
well id for 1 agree that danielle harris is proberly the top scream queen as thats the only films ive seen her in,but she is very gud at what she does,an i LOVED her in FEAR CLINIC!!!!! x
NO WAY! NOT ON MY WATCH!
KLOWNZ TOP 5! 1.Jamie Lee Curtis 2.Danielle Harris 3.Angela Bettis 4.Melissa George (amytville horror/paradise lost/W delta Z/30 days of night/triangle)
and at number 5 am going with Jodelle Ferland OK she is still a kid but let me explane: if she sticks with horror i think she could be the next big scream queen two shining examples of her acting skill is her roles in silent hill as Alessa & dark Alessa & her role in case 39 & she has already been in all these: they/carrie (tv remake)/supernatural (1 episode)/masters of horror (tv series "the v word")/the messengers/seed/bloodrayne: deliverence/twilight eclipse & cabin in the woods
ok most were small roles & a few films wernt exactly strong BUT you have to give credit, still early days but if she sticks with it i predict her to be a horror icon
cool thanks for the in put!!
cool thanks for the in put!!

the number 1 screamqueen to me will always be leanne quigley, it is what made her career and what she stuck to. jamie curtis would be nuber 2 only because she has made a career in other type of movies. And the third spot would be brinke stevens.
