THE STEPFORD WIVES (1975). A family leaves NYC for the quieter and safer village of Stepford CT. Everyone is friendly enough, but the wives seem a little..."out there" and their ultra-focusing on household/matrimonial duties seem very strange to quite liberated new residents Katherine Ross and Paula Prentiss (very good here). Quite campy throughout, but an edge of creepiness forms when the truth of the town is being found out, especially towards the end...quite an image.
Also with Tina Louise (GILLIGAN'S ISLAND-she's pretty good also) and a very young Dee Wallace as "Nettie". ***
