Scream queens come in various shapes, sizes and yes even genders. From Janet Leigh to Donald Sutherland, the best horror screams typically come from the best actors. Before all the fancy special effects, horror movies used to be all about these high-decibel screeches of pure terror. The hair raising screams summed up exactly what it was like to sit in a movie theatre to watch these classics on their first run. They’ve gone down in horror history, but we’re bringing them back to make sure you remember the best movie screams of all time. Jamie Lee Curtis - Halloween The daughter of screen legends Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh, Jamie Lee Curtis was a relative unknown until this horror classic launched her career. Shelley Duvall - The Shining The grueling shoot had Duvall hyperventilating, crying, and carrying a child around for months. Heather Langenkamp - Nightmare On Elm Street The cast of this Wes Craven masterpiece mixed veteran actors with up-and-comers like Johnny Depp, and this scream queen. Donald Sutherland - Invasion Of The Body Snatchers The sci-fi thriller was a remake of the 1956 film of the same name. Janet Leigh - Psycho A classic that made mommy issues mainstream fodder. Neve Campbell - Scream If Scream was incredibly self-aware and self-referential, why does it keep terrifying audiences today?
