Horror Roles That Really Messed Up The Actors' Heads

DAMN!





Have you ever watched a horror movie and wondered whether the actors were really as terrified as they seemed on-screen? A lot of times the answer is no, but every once in awhile, the experience can be just as chilling for them as it is for audiences. From working with abusive directors to method acting gone wrong to eerie encounters, here are some actors who took on horror roles that really messed with their minds..

One of the few in the genre I've seen in a movie theater... Seated on the aisle, someone bumped up against me in the pitch dark--just at one of the most difficult scenes-- and I literally and very unintentionally screamed "bloody murder". LOL....

Only the women seem to be the ones that were basically threatened and genuinely terrified by those working on the film. The few men/males mentioned here were all tragically affected by events surrounding the films and the production, but they weren't completely terrified to make them "act the part".

Appalling.
