Movie Bitches | Badass Movies, Badass Women

Good girls make for a boring movie. Bitches make for badass movies. From the film noir femme fatale to the adventurous Amazons, a woman with a heart of gold's got nothin' on a woman with a mouth like a trucker and a set of badass moves to match. These are the sexiest sirens, seductresses, schemers and skanks of the silver screen - in all their ass kicking, shit talking, man eating glory. And god what glory it is.

10 Sexiest Foreign Exchange Students in Film History

There are few things hotter than the glorified concept of a hot foreign exchange student. Think about it: it's a hot girl who has no inhibitions, knows little English and therefore depends on you AND stays at your place. Silver platter, anyone? With that said, here are the 10 girls who helped us all believe in the myth. The wonderful, beautiful myth.

Top 5 Tense Movie Face-offs

Some of my favourite scenes in movies happen when two actors get a chance to face off and confront each other. They might be about to shoot it out or engage in a kung fu tournament to determine the fate of our world, but the really thrilling part is the expectation built up as the characters look deep into each others eyes and face their enemies. Heres the top 5:
