How You Know Her: We've had our eyes glued to Amber ever since she played Seth Rogen's smoking-hot girlfriend in 2008's Pineapple Express. Now she's giving movie-goers the one-two punch with roles in frightfests Zombieland (released October 2) and The Stepfather (in theaters October 16). Why is she quickly becoming our No. 1 leading lady?

She's a Scream Queen: "I love making horror films. Look at my resume and you'll probably notice that I don't ration how many I do, like many actors. Call it lust…I just can't seem to get enough."

She'll Get Nasty: "In Zombieland, instead of a scream queen, I'm the ugly monster. I wanted to look like the most disgusting creature you've ever seen."

She's an Overachiever: "Wait, I have six films coming out this year? Shit, I guess I may have to finally return some of my publicist's phone calls!"
