Which of these 25 actors did you forget were in some popular horror movies?

There are some actors in horror movies that we will always remember. There are the core actors from the Scream franchise, including Skeet Ulrich, Matthew Lillard, and Rose McGowan. Then there are the likes of Robert Englund in the original A Nightmare on Elm Street movies.

However, there are some actors (and even horror movies!) that are forgotten about. They may have had roles that just weren’t that major so were uncredited for. Or they may have had roles that have been overshadowed by later roles.

In some cases, it’s the movie that you want to forget. This is often the case with sequels of great movies that ended up going straight to video.

Then there are the cases where the actors were just children. They were just starting out in their career and became better known for other roles. That’s certainly the case for a couple of actors on this list.

Now is the perfect time to figure out who you’ve forgotten about and then spend time watching the horror movies to see the actors pop up. In some cases, they’re a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it type of appearance. It’s no wonder you forgot all about them!

Are you ready for a full list of actors you need to look out for the next time you’re doing a rewatch of some (sometimes questionable) horror movies? Here are the 25 actors you completely forgot were in horror movies.
