Suzie Marie Toller is the main antagonist of the 1998 film Wild Things, the first installment of the Wild Things film series.
Initially portrayed as a peculiar and aloof social outcast, it is eventually revealed that Suzie is actually the Machiavellian mastermind behind the extremely elaborate criminal scheme that the film is centred around, designed to get revenge on the people who wronged her and to enrich herself.
She was portrayed by Neve Campbell, who also played Bonnie Hyper in The Craft, a disguised Roman Bridger in Scream 3, and Raven in the live-action adaptation of Twisted Metal.
Biography[]
Prior to the events of the film, Suzie lives in a Blue Bay trailer park with her grandmother Ruby. In a deleted scene, it is revealed by Ruby to Detective Gloria Perez that Suzie is actually Sandra Van Ryan's half-sister and Kelly Van Ryan's aunt, because Kelly's grandfather had a relationship with Suzie's mother and got her pregnant. However, after he abandoned Suzie and her mother, she drank herself to death.
As a result of her poor and troubled background, Suzie is looked upon with disdain by other people. Detective Ray Duquette who frequently abused many women in Toller's neighbourhood, killed Suzie's best friend Davy for trying to protect a woman from him. Duquette subsequently arrested Suzie for drug possession and sent her away to a correctional facility so she could not be a witness against him.
Suzie's guidance counsellor Sam Lombardo neglected to help her avoid jail time for the minor charge. Sometime later, Suzie discovered that Lombardo was having an affair with Kelly. Suzie blackmails Sam with photos of him and Kelly together in his house. To avoid exposure, Lombardo is forced to help Suzie concoct a plan with Kelly to get money from Kelly's wealthy mother.
Kelly and Suzie both publicly accuse Sam of rape. During the trial, Kenneth Bowden, Sam's lawyer, confronts Suzie and tells her that unless she tells the truth about what really happened, he would see to it that she goes to jail. Suzie reveals that Sam did not touch her and that Kelly fabricated the charges because she was in love with him and angry that he slept with her mother. The trial humiliates Kelly and her entire family, and Sam receives a generous settlement ($8.5 million), which he uses to retire peacefully.
When Ray knows that Sam and the girls are working together, Suzie becomes increasingly nervous and Sam worries that she will undermine their plan. After Kelly and Suzie argue over Suzie's concern and later apologize to each other by making out in Kelly's pool, a few days later, Sam and Kelly take her to the seaside, where Sam pretends to murder Suzie with a wine bottle. In the investigation into Suzie's disappearance, police find her blood and teeth by the ocean. Ray discovers Sam is the killer and goes to Kelly's house to protect Kelly from Sam. In the confrontation between Kelly and Ray, both are shot and Kelly fatally. Ray explains to his superiors how she shot at him, and he had to return fire. Ray is discharged from the police force following this incident, while Sam spends time at a tropical resort. Sam goes to his room and finds Ray there; Ray and Sam had been collaborating the whole time.
While cruising in Sam's boat in the ocean, Sam knocks Ray overboard. When Ray climbs back onboard, Suzie, shoots him with a spear gun and Ray disappears into the surf. Before Ray falls over, he pleads to Sam for help. Sam would say "you should not have killed Kelly", signifying he and Suzie showed no remorse in having to kill Ray. As Sam relaxes, Suzie gives him a drink laced with poison and knocks him overboard. She then sails the boat back to shore by herself.
A series of flashbacks during the credits explains that Suzie devised the plan, in which she wished to receive the money from the trial, as payback to her Sandra for being scorned and abandoned by their father. Suzie also wanted to kill Ray as revenge for Davey. She manipulated everyone, making Sam seem the mastermind and faking her own death. She was underestimated because of her delinquency and poor background. As for Kelly's death, Ray shot her first and then put a gun in her hand and made it appear that she had shot at him. Suzie meets with Bowden in the Caribbean and hands her a briefcase full of cash and a check for the balance of the settlement, minus money set aside for Suzie's family and his "usual fee". Suzie kisses Bowden on his cheek and when she walks off, he tells her to "be good".
