8. Demi Moore – Parasite
Demi Moore‘s first major role was in the 1982 film Parasite, which was in 3D before 3D became as popular as it is today. She played a young woman who was helping a scientist track down and destroy the killer parasite he was forced to create. Her husband at the time, Freddy Moore, also appeared in the movie. It’s a true B-movie and has an 11% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Luckily, Moore later went on to land a part in General Hospital, and then a few film roles before her big break in 1985’s St. Elmo’s Fire. SEE ALSO: 20 celebs with the most kids – #1 will shock you!

7. Leonardo Dicaprio – Critters 3
We all know Leonardo Dicaprio was a child star before he became a heartthrob thanks to Romeo + Juliet and Titanic, and an Oscar contender thanks to Martin Scorsese. But his very first film role ever was as Josh, the son of an evil landlord in Critters 3. Dicaprio himself has described the role as “your average, no-depth standard kid with blond hair.” The movie went straight to video, and Dicaprio didn’t return for the fourth and final installment. He became a recurring cast member on Growing Pains not long after, and his big break came with Robert De Niro cast him in This Boy’s Life in 1992.
