The lady: Annie Wilkes (Kathy Bates)
The crazy: Super-fan Annie Wilkes gets the thrill of her life when she rescues her favorite author (James Caan) from a car crash near her remote home, and nurses him back to health. But when she learns that he plans to kill off her favorite character in an upcoming book, she gets just a little upset. Sledgehammer, meet ankles.
