Horror Movies are well known for screaming girls as they run for their lives being chased by a murderous Villain. Women in Horror Movies aren't always the victims though. In fact sometimes they are just as evil as the guys, maybe even more so. Whether they like to tie up and torture their victims slowly or kill them swiftly the ladies can hold their own in the scary Villain category. The old saying "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" is certainly true in Horror Films. So be careful not to tangle with these ladies or you might end up missing a few body parts.
