You knew he’d be on this list. I knew he’d be on the list. Let’s just take a moment to bask in the beauty of this man, shall we? Ok, David is primarily an action star appearing in movies like Black Widow and Suicide Squad but he also has horror street cred with his role as Jim Hopper in Stranger Things. He also had a supporting role in Brokeback Mountain.

In addition to be an amazingly talented actor, Robert is a big teddy bear. Most recently starring in Halloween Kills as adult Lonnie, he also had featured roles in Midnight Mass and The Haunting of Hill House. Whatever your feelings on Halloween, there is no denying that the critical acclaim of Midnight Mass and Hill House. He gives powerhouse performances in all three!! Plus, that shaggy hair and gravely voice is to die for… literally!

Hunky tough guy Ken Foree has been titillating horror audiences since the 70’s. He is most famous for his starring role in the original Dawn of the Dead but he has also appeared in Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III, The Dentist, Rob Zombie’s Halloween, the Dawn of the Dead remake and countless others. He’s a lot of fun to watch — in more ways than one!


Tyler Labine

Tyler is so adorable I could explode! He is primarily a comedic actor but has done a fair amount of horror comedies, most notably starring as Dale in Tucker & Dale vs Evil. He has also appeared in Cottage Country, Little Evil and Escape Room.

Gunnar was the original Leatherface in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and although you don’t see his face in the film he conveys a lot with his body language. If you want to see him without the mask, then I recommend checking out Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers, Campfire Tales and Murder-Set-Pieces. He was the epitome of a silver haired polar bear daddy prior to his death in 2015! A true horror icon and legend gone too soon.


These boys are sure to bring you all the frights and delights your heart desires. Have fun seeing them in action and have a Happy Halloween!!!
