![]() However, with Monster's arrival in 2003, the patterns of women killers began to break. Other productions featured women who killed out of envy, greed, and sometimes they were simply passive companions of their murderous partners. But what about women killers? Initially, unlike what happens with the male gender, women killers' place in cinema has been closely related to their role imposed by society: obsessive caregivers, envious, and almost always under a man's shadow, like Pamela Vorhees in Friday the 13th. There are plenty of movies with killers portrayed stereotypically as powerful, young, almost indestructible-looking men. Since the arrival of horror films, serial killers have become absolute icons of the silver screen.
