The Woman is a 2011 horror novel written by Jack Ketchum and Lucky McKee. It is about a feral woman who is one day kidnapped by Chris Cleek, 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... not exactly the best man for the job. Violence, domestic abuse, bloodshed and a harsh feminist attack on misogyny and male dominance ensue.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })It was made into a 2011 film directed by McKee and starring Pollyanna McIntosh as the title character. Both Ketchum and McKee also collaborated on the script. The film gained infamy at a Sundance Q&A screening, where a woman fainted and a man went on an angry rant at the director.The novel is the third in the series of Dead River novels that started with Off Season and Offspring, the latter which was a film in 2009.A sequel Darlin' (not based on any book) written and directed by McIntosh was released in 2019. | |

Alternate Continuity | |
| The Woman / int_450c5a85 | comment |
Alternate Continuity: The film and book both diverge with their sequels. Ketchum and McKee wrote a novella called "Cow" which depicts Darlin' and Peggy becoming cannibals with the Woman and kidnapping a man for the purpose of procreation. Pollyanna McIntosh wrote and directed the film Darlin' which imagines a different continuation of the story. | |

Ambiguously Gay: Miss Raton in the film as revealed in a deleted scene. In the book it’s made clear early on. | |
