Really bizarre pose, it makes me uneasy and as anxious as she is, with no real resolution of what's going on. As wordy as that was, I'm not a fan.
The hatchet lighting is dramatic, to be certain, but for my tastes there's too much detail in the shadow. If you want to use something as dramatic as hatchet, don't be afraid to throw the rest of the face into really dark shadow. When you meter, spot meter the light side of the face, and possibly underexpose by a stop, and don't use matrix or pattern metering.
But yeah, weird pose, almost interesting lighting, but it just falls short by a bit.
