Lack of Female horror icons

is it just me or is there a distinct lack of female horror icons. and not i dont meen Sid from Scream or Starling from The Silence of the Lambs/Hannibal i meen there is no bad character females. is it so hard to make a Jason into Jennifer? Micheal into Michelle? Freddy into Freida?
i think it'd be cool to have a female killer. and no, the chick from American sucko two dont count neither. oh or Valentine, that movie was shite.

Yeah, I agree because women could seriously portray evil charcters really well and they never get the chance to because of all the parts being written are for males. The idea of a female horror icon should seriously be considered cause it's evil incarnate.

#1. Wicker Man hit the most obvious example.........Pamela Voorhies from the very first Friday the 13th film, one of the most popular horror/slasher film ever.

#2. Carrie was not a villain. If you think this, you need to watch the movie.

#3. Camilla was pretty good in The Guardian..............

#4. Since people are bringing up movies like T3, which isn't horror........I take it we are now discussing villains in any genre, not jut horror? Okay..........perfect movie villain (female) Rebecca Demornay in the Hand that Rocks the Cradle..........

Darkness Falls and The Ring both had villians that were female.

Not to mention The Exorcist.

Even in House of a 1000 corpses there was a female killer.

people you missed my point. i'm not talking people in the movies that are one offs but ones that live on, and on, and on, like Jason/Freddy/Myers. yes there have been some good female characters in horror but there in what, one movie. and yes i'm only talking in horror, not sci-fi which is what the Terminator movies are under in my opinion

As odd as this may sound I've never had a woman try to castrate me when I made her mad
