The Stepford Wives (2004, DVD)

Movie Description
Katharine Ross stars in this classic horror film as Joanna, a woman who moves to Stepford, Connecticut, along with her husband Walter (Peter Masterson) and her best friend Bobbie (Paula Prentiss). As the two women meet the other housewives who live in Stepford, they begin to notice that all of them are interested only in cooking, cleaning, and pleasing their husbands. Joanna and Bobbie are further alarmed when their husbands join the mysterious Stepford Men's Club, which convenes in a heavily guarded mansion and harbors a nefarious secret agenda. Based on the novel by Ira Levin (ROSEMARY'S BABY) and followed by the made-for-television sequels THE REVENGE OF THE STEPFORD WIVES, THE STEPFORD CHILDREN, and THE STEPFORD HUSBANDS.

Total Film - Dorian Lynskey (01/01/2001)

    This film was wonderfully done back in its day. I still enjoy it and would recommend it to anyone who loves a good twist. The remake of this film wasn't on the same level. If you ever watch the stepford wives, watch the original.

    Lets put it this way, I now own the original and not the remake..
    Stepfords Wives was not meant to be a comedy.. Even though the original was not an edge of the seat type thriller, it was suspenseful.. The new comedy version should have been called a sequel, not a remake... Though I'm sure Katherine Ross and Nicole Kidman are equals in the acting department Kathrine as a Stepford Wife gets my thumbs up..

    I really like this movie. On the surface it is a great mystery following along the strange events that take place in Stepford toward the ultimate conclusion. The underlying theme shows how far individuals would go to have the perfect spouse and what kind life that might provide. It also shows the sacrifices made to have "perfection".
