'''''[[The Woman''']]'' is a 2011 [[Horror]] film directed by Lucky McKee and based on the book by Jack Ketchum (who also co-wrote the script with McKee). It is about a feral woman who is one day kidnapped by Chris, a suburban dad, lawyer and hunter who locks her up in his cellar and, with the help of his family, attempts to "civilize" her. He's... [[Complete Monster|not exactly the best man for the job]]. Violence, [[Domestic Abuse]], bloodshed and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|a harsh feminist attack on misogyny and male dominance]] ensue.
