10 Amazing Horror Movie Performances That Should've Won Oscars

Rebecca Hall is an astonishing actress with a bevy of awards-worthy performances to her name, but the one that should've resulted in her first Oscar nomination and win? Resurrection.

In Andrew Semans' unforgettable horror-thriller, Hall is hypnotic as Margaret, a woman who mentally spirals when an abusive ex (Tim Roth) re-insinuates his way into her life.

Much as trauma might be the hot-button buzzword in horror these days, Hall's performance goes far above and beyond the most typical expressions of this, depicting a woman whose very sense of self is eroded as she squares off against a man with a uniquely twisted means of psychologically punishing her. Hall's facial expressions alone make Resurrection a deeply uncomfortable, wholly believable sit, and a mesmerising eight-minute single-take monologue in which Margaret lays out the source of her anguish ensures that this ranks among the best horror performances of the decade, if not of all time.
