Which ’80s Heartthrobs Have Aged Like Vintage Vinyl?

Heather Langenkamp

“Nightmare on Elm Street” had teens sleeping with the lights on, and a big part of that was Heather Langenkamp. This heroine wasn’t your typical damsel in distress. Heather’s portrayal of Nancy Thompson in the horror classic turned her into a scream queen icon.

She even played a fictionalized version of herself in Wes Craven’s “New Nightmare,” blurring the lines between reality and Elm Street’s dream world. Heather continues to act and advocate for independent films, proving she’s more than just a final girl—she’s a horror legend with staying power.
