Bianca Kajlich

Raven-haired Italian-American actress Bianca Kajlich (pronounced "Ky-lick") netted recognition early in her career for her contribution to the slasher movie sequel Halloween: Resurrection (2002), which found her character -- Sarah Moyer -- facing off against homicidal maniac Michael Myers, as she received play-by-play advice on a handheld. (Kajlich would later acknowledge her relief at not being cast in the next installment of the series.) She made a deeper and more enduring impression with her portrayal of newly engaged Jennifer on the relationship-oriented ensemble sitcom Rules of Engagement (2007). Her resumé also includes brief multi-episode stints on such prime-time series as Boston Public, Dawson's Creek, and Vanished. - Nathan Southern, Rovi
