Horror movies have a long-standing reputation for over-the-top performances, with some of them standing the test of time despite their aggressive camp. Performances in horror movies often go overlooked, with a high degree of acting skill necessary to convey the heart-thumping terror of one's life being endangered by a masked serial killer or a supernatural entity from beyond the grave.
