2. Easily recognizable(broad audience, they're wimps =P).
3. Post-1960's.
The reasoning behind this is to find a vanquisher-type woman in contemporary horror to prove(don't worry about that part) the connection between the Republican Woman of captivity literature and contemporary horror's Final Girl.
I've got until Tuesday =(. You're my only hope! =--(
Original film was The Silence of the Lambs, but I decided she's a hard sell due to her job title and not being personally victimized through the film. Argue against, if you'd like =)
