Synopsis: A family father finds a wild woman while hunting in the forest, and decides to capture her to teach her civilization.
Review: I like Lucky McKee because he directed May (nice little B movie) and the episode Sick Girl of the TV-series Masters of Horror. I didn't like so much The Woods. Anyway, The Woman also features the actress Angela Bettis, always good at playing weak-looking girls/women. She is not the main character here, but her husband. The first three quarters of the movie are very slow at revealing the true characters in this otherwise good looking family, and only the last quarter is really horrific, but it makes up for my relative dissapointement of the rest of the movie.
Rating: 6 /10
