5 - Emmanuelle Vaugier
Femme Fatales, 2006

Claim to fame:
She’s a gun-toting zombie slayer in Mindfire Entertainment and Lion’s Gate’s House of the Dead 2 which comes to do DVD in March and a superpowered soldier in Sci Fi’s recent Painkiller Jane.

Where you’ve seen her before:
Playing house with Lex Luthor on Smallville, suffering some excruciating wrist injuries in Saw II and playing Josh Hartnett’s girlfriend in 40 Days and 40 Night. Now, that’s acting!

Why we love her:
Emmanuelle is just too smokily good-looking to be so nice, but she’s actually quite personable for a girl who looks like she might have just walked out of our darkest, naughtiest dreams. We like that she’s starred in Return to the Cabin by the Lake and Water’s Edge, which is about a cabin by a lake. We’re made dizzy by her vaguely exotic, dark featured beauty and her infectious laugh. And we’re dying to see her kick ass in House of the Dead 2 in which she plays a cerebral, but sexy AMS agent fighting bloodthirsty zombies on college campus. Emmanuelle forever!
