FROM Kelly Brook to Janet Leigh, Sarah Michelle Gellar to Jenny Agutter we look at the Top 13 sexiest Scream Queens' on film.
Nothing highlights the nerve-jangling suspense of a good horror movie like a sexy Hollywood starlet.
Shower psychos and masked murderers have pursued them across the big screen for decades.
What a shame then, that most of them get terrorized, scared stiff or hacked to pieces by the time the credits roll.
There’s a reason they call them 'Scream Queens', of course.
New supernatural sequel Insidious: Chapter 3 is out now and introduces Stefanie Scott as the latest stunner to battle the forces of evil.

These ladies didn't win any Oscars lately, but their ear-splitting efforts deserve a little recognition. We have rounded up our Top 13 (unlucky for some, especially if a knife-wielding maniac is nearby) horror film victims. Plus, new honorary member Stephanie Scott.

Personally, we would scream louder than anyone if we had to go to THIS terrifying screening of Jaws on a dark lake at night, floating on rubber rings.
But back to business...
