Going a Scream Queen route?


She's played the leading lady in recent Silent Night & Mothers Day, My Bloody Valentine, The Tripper, & They Wait, I don't know if I see her as Neve Campbell/Jennifer Love Hewitt/Jamie Lee Curtis type of scream queen, Jaime is only a few years in doing horror/thriller, but with a few more lead roles in horror, I could see her in her own way taking a title of a scream queen. Anyone else think so?

I wouldnt consider JLH a scream queen (not like those 2 and Sarah Michelle Gellar are) but yes, she'd make a great one. she deserves more recognition beyond White Chicks and being the "rival" on Hart of Dixie.

I thought the exact same thing you thought about how she now is a horror movie actress. I thought this thought after watching silent night. I mean my gosh, the tripper, my bloody valentine, and silent night and happy campers, but I don't know if that is a horror movie but it might be(I have to think of the song from sleepaway camp 2: unhappy campers everytime I think of this movie because that is such a memorable song and such a memorable film).

ok, I have, have to say this. I have a discontent feeling about this. how come 3, 3! movies that she has been in which are horror movies are horror movie remakes? I know it's just an odd coincidence but it's a sign of this symptom and problem of remaking every freaking horror movie that has ever been made where the young people of today don't even know about the original horror movies from the '80s anymore because they are getting overwritten by the newer remakes. kids are only watching the newer and less good remakes.

neve Campbell was never a scream queen and neither was Jennifer love Hewitt. they both were only in one horror movie series so that means they are not qualified to be scream queens.
