The Guest (2014)
This is the film where the world stood up and took notice of Dan Stevens. In The Guest, he plays a veteran who was part of an experimental procedure to produce super soldiers. The experiment made them super hot, too, because it was apparent how handsome and dashing Stevens is in the scene where he leaves the bathroom in a towel.
Doctor Sleep (2019)
Rebecca Ferguson plays Rose the Hat in Doctor Sleep, and there are a lot of fans out there who think that her portrayal of Rose is very sexy. Rose is the evil leader of the True Knot who leads a group that feeds on the life force of children with psychic abilities. The portrayal is very sensual and scary, so that's probably why.
American Psycho (2000)
Patrick Bateman is an "utterly insane" serial killer obsessed with his good looks. He spends his time exercising, buying the best clothes, using beauty products, styling his hair just so, and eating in the most finicky ways except when he goes to fine restaurants. Of course, he is very popular and good looking in the film, and that appeal isn't lost on the audience.
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)
The gorgeous Salma Hayek as Santanico Pandemonium in From Dusk Till Dawn is, without a doubt, one of the most memorable characters in the movie. Even with a heartthrob like George Clooney as one of the lead characters, Salma Hayek steals the show with her seductive snake dance. She's an exotic dancer! She's an ancient vampire! Everyone is entranced and terrified.
Re-Animator (1985)
Jeffrey Combs as Herbert West, Re-Animator, has his fans. His performance is so intense, and that intense energy is very attractive. His intelligence is another factor. Being smart is sexy, and Herbert definitely is brilliant.
Jennifer's Body (2009)
Megan Fox plays Jennifer Check, the beautiful high school cheerleader who is the focus of desire in the film. It is undeniable that Jennifer is gorgeous, but if possible, she becomes even more attractive as a boy-eating demon. It's true; Fox's evil seductiveness as a demon takes it to the next level.
Alien (1979)
The danger is usually key to being attracted to villains, but there might be too much risk in this case. Yes, there are horror fans who think that the Xenomorphs from the Alien franchise are sexy. There is more than one of them, and one of them referred to the Queen Alien as "Queen Xenomilf."
The Whip and the Body (1963)
Christopher Lee was an incredible Dracula for Hammer Horror. He was magnetic and so handsome but scary. But people are amazed when they see photos of him as Kurt Menliffe from Mario Bava's film, The Whip and the Body. He's a real hottie, and the hedonism and dominating characteristics just under the skin are thrilling.
Audition (1999)
Audition is a fearsome film that takes you by surprise. One of the film's most significant assets is Eihi Shiina as Asami Yamazaki. Even though her character is not what it seems and turns the tables on the man using an audition to find a new wife, fans still say, "Asami is very cute in Audition." What happens to the man in the film doesn't even faze them.
Candyman (1992)
Tony Todd as Candyman is a villain that fans find sympathetic, dapper and commanding. One thing people mentioned the most was his swoon-worthy and deep voice as being so enticing. Imagine hearing him say, "Be my victim." A lot of people do just that.
Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992)
There are so many gorgeous and sexy people in Francis Ford Coppola's adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula. But none of them quite have the electric effect of Dracula's Three Brides on the audience. Monica Bellucci, Florina Kendrick, and Michaela Bercu gave the members of the audience such naughty daydreams, and those daydreams continue to this day.
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974)
I know. But stick with me here. It wasn't any of the 70s hotties that attracted horror fans' interest when asked this question. It was Leatherface. If it was just one person, I might think it was a joke, but there was more than one, and they had one particular reason. They called him "Thiccc." Besides being a powerful serial killer with a chain saw, Leatherface also has a sensitive side. People have taken note of this, and it's a plotline in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre Part 2. Fans aren't actually the ones who started this. I don't think asking him for a date is really safe, though.
Psycho (1960)
Another atypical horror heartthrob is Norman Bates, as played by Anthony Perkins. He's nerdy and troubled but handsome. Norman is one of those guys that many people think, "I could fix him!" Eh, probably not, but he's got that sensitive, brooding guy thing going on and on. He can also gain your trust with his boyish wiles. Beware!
