Guess the Movie by Screenshot: Jessica Alba Edition

Latina magazine actually has a pictorial this month of Jessica Alba recreating famous horror movie roles. Link.











I cannot figure out the last one. Thoughts?

It looks like someone stuck Shannon Elizabeth's head on some manly body.

I have always felt the same way.
It's not like she's a dog now or anything but i just find to be not very attractive at all anymore. Maybe it's the hair? I don't know...She just used to look so sexy and interesting and now she looks bland....

The Psycho one looks terrible. It's like a cross between Jessica Alba, the iconic image, and a botched design for Michael Jackson's "Black or White" video.

I'll take Lindsay Lohan in New York magazine any day of the week over this.

Jeez, even in still photos, she's a lousy actress.

No kidding. I don't think she could convincingly portray "falling" if you pushed her out of a window.

QFT. +1

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Unless she ever gets naked I won't bother with anything she's involved in.

In the Psycho picture it looks like someone just told a joke and she's laughing her ass off.

That is so, so true. I was thinking the exact same thing.

I just caught her in "Awake." She was great in that.

I agree, but I really wasn't sure at first. If she had been wearing the same T-shirt as JoBeth Williams, it would have been easy.

She's one of those young actresses who's not an actress at all. She can't play. She's just there because of her looks. Although imo she doesn't have any.

I prefer her over some of the overacting I see from "legitimate" actresses.

That Psycho one looks as if the photographer has just asked her to give him a blowjob (watch the teeth Jessica). The Rosemary's Baby picture isn't much better - she looks as if she has never been shocked or scared before.

If she can't even act in a photo - what makes her think she will ever be a legitimate "actress". She's a low bar sex symbol and that is what she will always be. Never an actress.
