This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

First to mention, it's like it's had been filmed with a $800 camera with a hand, maximum 2 persons. It just lowers the rate by half when you see it. The main character is a delusional misogynist who abuses the whole family. It just messed up that I have wanted to end the movie but I just wanted to see may I get out the two out of ten but no! It just bothers me, a weak man abuses the whole family. He is trying to be macho but I've never seen such a weak character. I could slap him with a hand and tell him, go at your place. And that cissy abuses everyone?! All the characters look very weird, it's probably because of the movie or because the budget was less than the price of the camera they filmed it. The daughter's professor look the same age as the girl, I was like come on, couldn't you find some plus five years older character? What they done good in the movie is the plot when you have to realize he had raped his daughter. It could be easily noticed as she is crying and unerringly when her professor comes to her home. Then there is a scene when the father will abduct the professor, all of it is like come on, when you will stop?I got the point this is an anti-feminist movie but couldn't you make something like I spit on your grave 2? That movie has a clear message and much higher budget. I liked the vengeance part on the end which I was waiting 45 minutes. I wanted to rate is as a two but the synopsis & the film wallpaper tell you it's probably 7 or 8 but when I saw I was tricked by a movie promo.I mean nothing is going around in the movie, it's so boring, filmed rate: worst thus when you see who is the abuser and many other things worthless to mention, you can not rate this as a sufficient. Great promo indeed, worst movie indeed.

I saw this movie on a rented DVD in 2012. Well, i heard so much praise bah this film that i cudnt wait to play the DVD. One mistake i did. I saw this before its prequel "Offsprings". This movie started slow. Nothing happens. The capture of The Woman while she is out in the forest drinking water was silly. I thot how cn cannibals or feral clans still exist that too so close to civilization. Still i continued watching. Still nothing happens. To top it all the acting was bad, editing was lousy, music terrible n the screenplay sucked big time. Some may find it strange and aggressive. I found it boring n unexplained. The movie ended with a wild bloody finale. Gore hounds will b happy but they hav to wait till the end. Its a very slow movie. Thats it. I didn't recognise (or was aware) that the Woman was Pollyanna McIntosh. Her other two films which i enjoyed (Exam n Let us prey), i saw much later aft this flick. It's directed by Lucky McKee (May, The woods, Red). Adapted from the book written by Jack Ketchum.

A friendly family finds a wild woman in the woods and decides to domesticate her. You don't need to know much else. It's not very scary though so don't worry. You can watch this with your significant other. You should, actually. Every actor is doing just brilliantly in this film, and the direction has a little offbeat delivery which I love. This is feminist, in an absurd way, and absurd feminism is what we all love and cherish.It questions the nature of the Household itself, and it speaks volumes about the inherent rage and lust in human beings. Please take note also how every character throughout the movie evolves together with the Woman, it's just damn good writing right there. Great soundtrack too, with no respect for pacing, just as it should be. One of the best intelligent horror films I have ever seen, right up there with Scream, Babadook, and It Follows. Free her from herself, from her baser instincts! Christ this movie is just a quote machine.

As Philip Larkin's poem goes: "They f**k you up, your mum and dad. They may not mean to, but they do." Well, in The Woman, from writer Jack Ketchum and director Lucky McKee, deviant dad Chris Cleek (Sean Bridgers) clearly intends to mess up his family, and his poor wife Belle (Angela Bettis) does little to stop him. Chris has already started his son Brian (Zach Rand) down the same path, training him in the ways of a sociopath; teenage daughter Peggy (Lauren Ashley Carter) has been getting the wrong kind of love from her old man and is now in the family way. Youngest daughter Darlin' (Shyla Molhusen) is still too little to appreciate the situation, but I'm sure that, given time, she would find out the hard way that dad ain't a very nice man. There's another sister too, but more of her later
Into this extremely dysfunctional family comes a wild woman, captured by Chris while on a hunting trip in the woods. Chaining her up in his cellar, Chris tells his wife and kids that he intends to try and civilise the feral female, but it ain't long before he's sneaking out at night, giving his prisoner the same sort of attention he has been giving to poor Peg. Brian also pops in to see the woman when no one else is around, torturing her with a pair of pliers, one hand down his trousers. Matters come to a head when Peg's teacher, Miss Raton (Carlee Baker), pays the family a visit to voice her concerns about her student: Chris loses it big time and drags teach to the shed where his third daughter lives with a pack of ravenous dogs. More animal than human, the girl tears the teacher to pieces, the dogs feeding on her remains. Meanwhile, Peg sneaks into the cellar and frees the wild woman, who finally gets to even the score with Chris, Brian and Belle.The Woman is clearly a very twisted film, dealing with some touchy themes and offering up a fair amount of very graphic violence, but what I found most disturbing is just how easily Mr. Cleek fools his friends and neighbours; the viewer soon twigs that something is very wrong going on, director McKee leaving gradual clues as to the true extent of Chris's madness, but to his colleagues at work and his casual acquaintances, Chris couldn't be a more genial, stand up guy. It makes one wonder if any of the people we meet in everyday life are as equally inhumane and twisted at heart.Technically, the film is very accomplished: it took me a while to get used to McKee's (over)use of cross-fades and his somewhat unusual use of songs, but it definitely adds to the overall feeling that something very strange is going on.7.5/10, rounded up to 8 for IMDb.
