We recently looked over at another site and saw a similar list that really disappointed us. What this list represents are actors and directors that strayed away from the genre before we were ready and hope to one day see again.
9. Chris Sarandon
Career Highlights:
Fright Night
Child's Play
The Sentinel
Bordello Of Blood
Chris Sarandon received an Oscar Nominee for his debut role in Dog Day Afternoon which should of been a instant sign that this musically trained stage actor was made for the silver screen. Sarandon's credits also boast the non horror films The Princess Diaries and A Nightmare Before Christmas both of which now hold a large cult following though it was Child's Play and Fright Night under the direction on the great Tom Holland (see # 6) that truly allowed Sarandon the freedom to cement his name in the genre. Still to this day despite that alarming amount of attempts at the vampire genre; Sarandon's superior portrayal of the dashing Jerry Dandridge, an ancient vampiric evil set on starting a new life in a small town, whose feeding frenzy is cut short by a nosey neighborhood kid has yet to be matched. Now he can primarily be seen traveling the convention circuit.
