Glenn Close brilliantly played Alex Forrest in the 1987 thriller Fatal Attraction. In the movie, Alex Forrest is a single career woman apparently looking for long term commitment, but poor Dan (Michael Douglas) doesn't know that. He's in for the ride of his life.
4. "Baby" Jane Hudson (Bette Davis)
Child star Baby Jane Hudson's jealousness over her sister gets violent in the 1962 film Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?. Jane deprives her wheelchair-bound sister Blanche of food and friends after she discovers that Blanche is trying to put her in a mental institute. She goes as far as to kill someone to keep Blanche locked away. She manages to do this all while trying to relaunch her career.
3. Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins)
In Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho, the slasher genre was born all thanks to the creepiness of Anthony Perkins portrayal of momma's boy Norman Bates.
2. Leatherface (Gunnar Hanson)
Fear was realized when Leatherface first appeared on screen in 1974's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. My favorite scene is the sledgehammer scene, of course. Leatherface has been portrayed by numerous people throughout the series' sequels and remakes.
1. Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins)
Even though he's only on screen for 16 minutes, Anthony Hopkins struck fear into us that we had never before The Silence of the Lambs. Hopkins even won an Oscar for his portrayal of Lecter.
