Jill Schoelen
She was great as the stepdaughter! I think this was the first film I saw her in. I felt so bad when she got the picture back and Jerry Blake had switch the photo so it looked like the killer was someone else.
shareI know! This was the first movie I saw her in also. I felt so bad when she had to hear her mother and Jerry in the next room making so much noise she had to put her headphones on. The song she is listening to is by Pat Benatar.. Run Between the Raindrops... GREAT song. Jill has a long resume of horror. The Stepfather, Curse 2, Popcorn, The Phanton and the Opera, When A Stranger Calls Back, Cutting Class. Lol. I know she was once engaged to Brad Pitt around the time Cutting Class came out but she broke off the engagement. She was a terrific actress and I guess she doesn't really act anymore. I love her movies and she was one of my first movie star crushes when I was little. I'm 19 now but I remember so well when I was like 8 and I would search my video store for any movie I could find her in.
shareI loved her films! I saw her in popcorn , the phanton of the opera , That was then this is now, Chiller, rich girl. I seen most of her films! I also felt really bad for her Character when she was kissing that boy and Jerry accused him of raping her. I am twenty eight and I thought she was a pretty actress but I also could connect to her better since I felt she could be a girl I knew at school. I also loved her since she was in scary movies and I was a young teenage girl at the time, it was great to see someone who didn't need to be big busted and dumb to be in horror movies. She had a great smile.
shareShe also featured in a little known movie called " Thunder Ally" (1985) An underated movie about a rising rock band. She plays the guitarist girlfriend
shareCount me in as another Jill Schoelen fan! She was in a long string of horror movies between the mid 80s and early 90s, and she always seemed to be on the cusp of becoming the major new scream queen of her generation (much like Jamie Lee Curtis around the time of the original Halloween). Schoelen was smart, pretty, appealing, with a very down-to-earth likeability about her. It's always a treat to see her onscreen but I wish she'd make a proper comeback.
shareI really miss her work!
