The idea that there are men who could actually murder their wives and replace them with robots is disgusting!
That's what makes this a very chilling horror film.

The Stepford Wives - Thinking Outside the Plot

Thinking Outside the "Plot"!
________________________________
~ A Question for the Members: If the android wives managed to increase their intelligence and change their programing so they could think independently, could they change the pecking order and somehow make the men better husbands?
~ My Theory: First of all, The Revenge of the Stepford Wives and The Stepford Husbands have completely different concepts for what I've suggested. Both made-for-TV movies involved the use of mind-altering drugs to control the members of the opposite sex.
Frankly, I'm amazed by that!
I mean, seriously . . . Hollywood never saw the beauty in a story about tragically oppressed AI android women who figured out how to turn their slave-master husbands into caring, loving soul-mates?
Well, okay, admittedly they sort-of did do this in the remake of The Stepford Wives (2004), which has the husbands placing microchips into their wives' brains. But the leader of the community, retired brain surgeon Glen Close, reveals that she murdered her cheating husband (Christopher Walken) and replaced him with a cyborg!
Miss Close's long-range plan was to turn everybody in Stepford, Connecticut, into happy cyborgs and make it an idyllic community of blissfully happy married couples!
Obviously that's NOT what I'm suggesting.
I want an imaginative, uplifting tail in which a group of hi-tech robotic women convert their sexist, selfish husbands into intelligent, sensitive, and passionate men! Together these strange miss-matched couples succeed in doing what real men and women often don't accomplish!
And before somebody rains on the parade of my clever concept by saying "Bud, that could never happen!" — just STUFF it guys! This is science fiction, where anything the author wants to be true . . . IS true!
Ask your wives what they think of my idea. I'll bet they love it!  _________________ ____________
