10 Terrifying Female Horror Villains

10 Terrifying Female Horror Villains

When we tend to talk about women in horror, it’s very easy to conjure up the age-old trope and imagery of the female slasher victim, because of their promiscuity and body positivity. Female antagonists however have been more than just the gory, tantalising titillation aimed at bringing hordes of men to the cinema.

“It has nothing to do with Satan, Mama. It’s me.”

Dead Snow 2: Red vs. Dead (2014, Norway / Iceland) Review

Dead Snow 2: Red vs. Dead (2014, Norway / Iceland) Review

Like the tagline, you shouldn’t take this film seriously. If you’re a horror fan who has never seen this sequel before, I would recommend it. There’s plenty of humour where you don’t expect it, great fight scenes, and it’s bonkers in a way only an independent film can be.

“The sequel you did Nazi coming…”
