Isn't it a rule that the female lead in a Horror movie had to be naked at some point?

I just watched the Hills Have Eyes II.. Meh, it's not great, not even good for that matter, but I did take solace in the fact that the female lead was very very hot.. aaannnd that means, I would see her in some sort of nude scene by the end of the movie..

Boop, an hour later the credits roll.. I never saw a tit, or even any panties.. WTF. I thought it was a rule that Female leads in horror movies had to show a little something. At least a little something.. All we got was a tight t-shirt, for watching a shitty movie for 90 minutes. I'm telling ya, I think if this trend continues they might have to start doing a good job on some of these horror movies.


Hrm, now that I think about it.. that damn chainsaw massacre movie never showed the hot chick naked either.



I miss the good ol'days of Horror.

Nah, isn't it always other chicks besides the lead character?

Going by the "Scream" rules, the virginal chick is the one that lives, and usually the lead is the one that lives.

I think the T&A days in horror movies have passed. Incidently, it reminds me of an argument with several of my female friends that I am currently winning. I postulate that the male penis is shown in mainstream movies far more than the female bush. Think about it. The gut instinct is that mainstream movies objectify women a lot more than men, but I've seen a lot more cock than bush. I'm pretty sure everyone here has.

I'm still doing research on whether or not tits are being shoved aside by dicks, but that could be true also.

Here are SFW examples, not sure if they all were leads or not.

Not exactly on topic BUT
Did you ever notice that in most R rated movies the "sex" scene or nudity happens almost always right around the 1 hour mark in the film? I always check the spot on the tivo and sure enough its almost always right there.
Check it out next time your watching something

"Diary of the Dead" actually brings up this point and how chicks in horror movies are always running from the monster while wearing heels, trip & fall, and the monster "conveniently" is able to pull/rip the girl's top so she shows breast(s).

It is at the beginning of the movie, then revisited near the end. Pretty darn funny actually.

Looking at imdb.com, the first one was not the lead in Friday the 13th. Adrienne King playing Alice Hardy was.

But did any of the other ladies get naked in their movies though?
