10 of Horror’s Most Ruthless Women

Asami Yamazaki (Eihi Shiina in Audition)
We go international for this next psycho chick. And we can keep it very simple here. Director Takashi Miike made it abundantly clear that some ladies simply should not be fucked with. If you think staging a fake audition to help find a new wife is a good idea, then I’ve got just the film for you. And I’m sure all of you know a rabid young wannabe actress. Do you see them responding any differently if they found out the dream role they just won was a ruse? The piano string would be the least of your worries.
La Femme (Beatrice Dalle in A l’interieur (Inside)
Okay, here was a woman that was extremely difficult to get along with. We stay international here with the French film we Stateside call Inside. And this one falls right in step with some of the other intense French films we’ve seen lately. (Certainly the babes from High Tension or Frontier(s) could have found their way onto this list.) Absolutely mysterious throughout the film, La Femme is an extremely efficient killing machine bent on getting back what was taken from her. When you start your evening’s attack by trying to cut a baby out of a woman’s womb, it’s tough to build on that. La Femme succeeds, planting her firmly on this list.
