Here Are Some of Your Favorite Horror Performances

Yesterday, I posted a question on my Twitter where I asked my followers to quote reply me with their favorite horror performance. Little did I know that I would be inundated with responses for hours upon hours from people I’d never interacted with before. It was a flurry of horror love, a time for fans to show their appreciation to the actors and actresses that fill them with terror, passion, and emotion.
To let the responses simply fade away into Twitter history seems like such a waste, so I’ve gathered several responses that I want to share with you here. Then, after you see what people are writing, I ask that you leave a comment below with your own answer. Let’s share our love of the incredible performances that keep us returning to horror!
Jodie Foster's Clarice Starling isn't just one of the best performances in a horror film, but one of the greatest screen performances ever. https://t.co/WDTZ954Civ
