Draco L Dec 31, 2018 One of those films that has become ingrained in our culture as allegory. Fair share of 70s camp but it's a creepy and enjoyable watch. Fun fact: two of the women in this movie played Ginger Grant from Gilligan's Island. Tina Louise played the role in the initial television series and Judith Baldwin took over the role in the made-for-television movies a decade later. See more

George M Sep 15, 2018 A truly engaging and different thriller. Leisurly paced and full of bright sunlight and colors untill the last sequence, this is one of the best mind thrillers going. Katherine Ross surprises the viewer with an understated performance that builds as more clues are reveled. Paula Prentiss brings here comidic talents to the off-beat housewife Bobbie and Tina Louise is excellent in her small, but pivotal role as the first wife ro go through a transformation. The misogyny is open and clear. Men are using their power to turn their wives into what they want. Patrick O'Neal as the brains of the operation replies to Kathrine Ross's Joanna queationof "Why?", it is because they can. This is a different thriller/horror movie then many. It may seem slow brcause there is not the bllod and gore of a typical horror film, but we are taken on the journey from Joanna's prepective. We are finding out information as see is, and that is where the tension builds. See more

Leia W Jul 26, 2018 With excellent build-up, palpable tension, an amazing premise and such an unforgettable haunting ending, The Stepford Wives is simply a great film with only its pacing being obviously problematic. It's a mysterious, very atmospheric, sophisticated horror tale which is filled with many great details and highly memorable intense sequences. It's a tragically underappreciated movie which is so much better than its rip-off 'Get Out'. See more

Anakin P Sep 18, 2017 Inefficient young workers of Rotten Tomatoes canna even get the picture right on this ORIGINAL Cult Masterpiece...Mucho More Frightening than the silly remake. See more

Poe R May 29, 2017 Mildly creepy, mildly sci-fi, mildly erotic and mildly horror is perhaps a fitting, if grammatically awkward description of this 1975 movie. The first two thirds of the film could certainly benefit from tighter editing although the pace does noticeably pick up in the final act. Very much a product of it's time in every sense, it hasn't dated well but the story somehow manages to hold you until the end. See more
