Profile:
Perhaps no other actress has as impressive a horror resume as Dee Wallace. She's worked with some of the biggest directors in the genre -- from Wes Craven and Joe Dante to Peter Jackson and Rob Zombie -- and she's starred in some of the most heralded horror films in modern history, including The Howling, The Hills Have Eyes and The Stepford Wives. She's worked in her share of lower key "popcorn movies" as well, such as Critters and Stephen King's Cujo. Her consistent devotion to the horror genre has earned her a cult following and status as one of the ultimate "scream queens." Unlike most scream queens, though, she tends to play more mature, often maternal figures, her steadying, classy presence adding a level of authenticity to any production in which she appears.
