After Sunday's Golden Globes ceremony, this weekend's horror movie Mama doesn't just star Jessica Chastain but "Golden Globe winner" Jessica Chastain. It might seem strange to see an award-winning actress in a horror movie, but the trend of respected actors taking roles in horror movies is on the rise. Just last year, Oscar–nominated actor Ethan Hawke (Training Day) starred in supernatural horror-thriller Sinster while Golden Globe-nominated Rebecca Hall (Vicky Christina Barcelona) appeared in British ghost story movie The Awakening.
Of course, horror movies have historically been a place where actors often get their start. In fact, a surprising amount of Hollywood stars and Academy Award winners and nominees have started their careers in the horror genre, and, in fact, some are still working in the genre.

With more than 100 movies credits to his name, Tony Curtis had a Hollywood career that was as diverse as it was long. From his appearance in 1949's How to Smuggle a Hernia Across the Border (a farcical short directed by Jerry Lewis), he went on to play roles as diverse and memorable as the comic Joe/Josephine in Some Like It Hot to the battle-determined Antoninus in Spartacus. In a statement released after his death, daughter Jamie Lee Curtis said:
He leaves behind children and their families who loved him and respected him and a wife and in-laws who were devoted to him. He also leaves behind fans all over the world.
We'll have a full tribute to Curtis tonight on Hollywood Dailies, 6:30PM ET / 3:30PM PT. ReelzChannel is on DirecTV (channel 238), DISH Network (channel 299), and your cable system.
