Recently, I watched "The Woman", released in 2011 and directed by Lucky Mckee. Now, usually, I feel as though I can get the feel of a movie pretty easily. You know, where it's headed sorta. But this movie pretty much shot down every guess I had in regards to the twists and turns of the storyline.
Basically, it focuses on the capturing of this feral woman, who turns out to be from a family of cannibals, by this well-to-do Southern family man, Chris Cleek. He takes her down to an underground shed area and hooks her up so she's in this sort of "Vitruvian Man" position. Throughout the film, Mr. Cleek cleans her up, with the help of his timid, fearful family.
It's the end that reeeeeeeaaally got me though. The father, Chris Cleek, turns out to be abusive and the family becomes fed up. The teenage daughter releases the Woman from her restraints and it's on from there. The woman jumps on the mother and rips her face off...with her mouth. All the while, the teenage daughter watches it all.
I'd have to say that thee most awesomely awesome moment of pure awesomeness of the whole film is when the Woman goes straight up to Mr. Cleek and goes straight through his chest with her hand to pull out his heart, look in his dying eyes, and take a bite out of his beating heart like we would an apple.
Of course, there are a few holes in the overall plot of the movie, but the sheer disturbing, disgustingness of it makes up for it. Well, to me, at least.
I hope I didn't give away too much of the movie if you haven't had the chance to see it yet. I'd recommend it to any horror movie finatic such as myself.
