Amy Adams

This combined parody of 1950s psychodramas, 1960s beach movies, and 1980s slasher films features none other than Amy Adams, who went on to become one of the highest-paid actresses in history. Adams plays Marvel Ann in Psycho Beach Party (2000), the girlfriend of a college dropout named Starcat. The film is based on a play of the same name directed by Robert Lee King.
