Are they ranked? No! They are all tied for #1. Is this definitive? Who cares! They are the couples I immediately thought of. You are welcome to cite any other hot babe couples in horror movies. Viva les lists!
HOT BABE COUPLES IN HORROR MOVIES
GEORGE AND KATHY LUTZ IN THE AMITYVILLE HORROR (1979)
If someone makes a movie about my fake paranormal experiences, I can only hope that I will be portrayed by someone as hot as Margot Kidder or James Brolin at the height of their hot powers.
ALISON PARKER AND MICHAEL LERMAN IN THE SENTINEL (1977)
Chris Sarandon and Cristina Raines really put the hot in this hot mess of a movie!
MARGARET WALSH AND PETE DANNER IN THE LEGACY (1978)
I love The Legacy perhaps more than it deserves. But even if I didn't, I'd watch it anyway just for the sweatered-up romance between real life couple Sam Elliott and Katharine Ross.
PICKETT SMITH AND KAREN CROCKETT IN FROGS (1972)
They only knew each other for like fifteen minutes before the frogs took over the Crockett compound, but no matter. Sam Elliott without his moustache? Also no matter. Look at those babes!
SUSIE BANNION AND SARA SIMMS IN SUSPIRIA (2018)
I keep hoping their story will play out differently, but no matter how many times I watch this movie it never does. Huh, weird.
RHONDA JOHNSON AND HER OVERSIZED NOVELTY SAFETY PIN IN KILLER WORKOUT (1987)
The couple that slays together, etc etc. I know I said this list wasn't a ranking, but let's be real. None of the other couples can compete. The tanning bed wasn't the only time Rhonda was sizzling!
JESS AND PETER IN BLACK CHRISTMAS (1974)
So toxic! So violent! So...babes!
BOB AND LYNDA IN HALLOWEEN (1978)
Every slasher movie with a Final Girl needs at least one Not Final Girl, and boy oh boy is Lynda a Not Final Girl. She hates school but loves Doing It, two qualities that rarely let a woman survive until the end credits roll. I love her. And I love Bob, who shows up in the film solely to screw and get killed.
RED AND DUANE IN PSYCHO III (1986)
What are they doing! Absolutely bonkers and so sleazy I caught crabs just looking at those screencaps.
KURT BARLOW AND RICHARD STRAKER IN SALEM'S LOT (1979)
You heard me! If Mr. Barlow didn't have that whole "vampire" issue, these two would be running an antiques shop together and dishing with Paul Lynde out in Palm Springs. For real though, Salem's Lot is...really something when it comes to gay shit. Whilst reading, I downed a shot of Franzia every time a character uttered a slur or said something hateful in the novel and I've been dead for decades.
Okay, I just thought of, like, four more couples that I didn't include. Sigh. Mondays, amirite?
