I think Jane Meikle is tops. She’s the nerdy niece of Elvira with multiple personality disorder. Since “Scream Channel”:http://www.screamtelevision.ca is one of my favorites, I do enjoy Jane’s opening monologues to introduce the films. The feel of these bits are a little Hilarious House of Frightenstein, a little late-night horror host.

My favorite character is her little British brat, “Nancy”. Her demented glee once annoyed me, but now it’s like sitting down with an old pal to watch some crazy horror flicks. I don’t know how long she’ll stay on as Scream’s hostess, as they now have some other chick hosting intermittently.

For now, we can enjoy her myriad of wacky characters.

From Scream: Jane holds a Bachelor of Arts in Women’s Studies and English literature from McGill University in Montreal. She currently produces and directs her own short film projects, and is pursuing her acting career in Toronto.
