Well, I think that it differs from film to film.

Examples:

Scream - dumb girls doing stupid things

Resident Evil - Alice is the heroine

Underworld - Selene knows how to kick some serious ass!!

Orphan - psycho girl

I guess most teenage and campy horror films are going to portray most of the females as lacking brains or any type of courage. Higher grade horror films tend to portray females as heroines, psychos, the last one standing, or as someone who at least appears to have sense.
