I saw Jack Makichuk's _Ghostkeeper_ today.  While probably a rip-off of _The Shining_, it appears in every way to be a feminist retelling, albeit with a Windigo instead of a ghost.  I haven't found any reviews that understand it that way, though.  Has anyone seen it?  Apparently I got it, and the IMDb reviewer doesn't show any evidence that he saw it.  The only other online review didn't "get" the film at all, and I thought it made perfect sense.
