Now that we’ve hit the spookiest part of the year, lists devoted to the best horror films are lurking around every corner. But we wanted to do things a little differently too by rounding up the best female leads in the genre. And with so many classic examples probably popping into your head right now, like Ellen Ripley of the Alien series, or Laurie and Nancy from the Halloween and A Nightmare on Elm Street franchises, we felt like a refresh.
The list we came up with isn’t made up exactly of your traditional “final girl” types -- in fact, some of these women got laid without getting slayed. Given that all these films came out within the last 30 years, each of the protagonists demonstrates noticeably different qualities from her scream queen forebears. To make the list, we took into account things like strength, attitude, determination, whether she survives (especially in more than one film of a series), and the sheer wow-factor of her kill(s), if any. Read on if you’re looking for the perfect films to watch with that special, bada$$ lady in your life, or if you ARE that special bada$$ lady and like a little side of empowerment served with your blood ‘n guts.
