My Take
Erica Leerhsen occupies a corner of cinema I genuinely love: horror that demands real commitment. Headlining Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 and starring in the 2003 Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake means putting yourself through the physical and emotional wringer to truly frighten an audience. Trained at Boston University and working across television, film, and stage, she has the range to do more than scream, which I think is undervalued in the genre. Performers who throw themselves into fear roles with full conviction deserve more credit, and she is one of them.
