The 5 Best Horror Performances of the Year! (via. Bloody Disgusting)

Oscar-nominated actresses are often take risky low-budget roles between the agent approved, career trajectory signpost films that make up the bulk of their body of work. But rarely are those roles this risky and this low budget. As Libby in James Gunn’s Super, Ellen Page gets to play an infectiously energetic young woman who just happens to be a 100% complete sociopath. It’s a fearless performance that draws upon the heretofore unseen reserves of innocence, sexuality and violence in Page’s repertoire. Waves of vicarious glee wash over you as she dives headfirst into the carnage afforded by her new identity as Boltie. It’s a kinetic, visceral performance that’s enhanced tenfold by how unpretentious it is.
