7. The Woman

The Woman

Lucky McKee’s The Woman is an underrated gem, and not an easy watch. When a family man finds and captures a feral woman in the woods, he takes it upon himself to civilise her. However, it just so happens that he’s a sadistic scumbag who violently assaults and rapes her.

The whole movie is bloody and violent, but it’s not until the final act where things are taken to another level when The Woman escapes and she exacts revenge. The reveal of what exactly the family’s dogs are makes a scene which sees a concerned teacher torn apart and eaten even worse, and while just about everyone else does get what they deserve, that doesn’t make it any easier to watch. You need not look any further than this movie for one of the greatest gory horror movies of all-time.
