Indie filmmakers like Paul Solet (Grace), Mitchell Lichtenstein (Teeth), and Lucky McKee (May, The Woman) are clearly and admirably fascinated by females who exist in an environment of dark fiction, but let’s be frank here: there should be more horror films about women — that are also written and directed by women.
For a more confrontational female perspective that similarly dissects an unjust society, try the Soska sisters' American Mary , a film that's unafraid to scream against the silencing of women.
