Stabbing someone is the appropriate response if they were going to give you instant coffee. #monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975
WHYYYY does my internet always cut out at the climactic part
The parts of it that are real are what make it good. They only have to change parts, and let the human-ness do the rest. #monsterdon
Walter, that's battery. you should know that #monsterdon
damn-- lady-- i'm sorry about your kids but you might have to crawl out the window and down the snowdrift. #monsterdon
@diazona YES. Spiders, please save us!

still needs more giant spiders #TeamSpider
Oh no did she go to the same medical school as the ob gyn in Rosemary's Baby #monsterdon
sssshit. #monsterdon
i think this might simply be the The Yellow Wallpaper of 70s cinema
@CactuarJoe yeah, on the one hand she's "going away for a few days" on the other hand, getting the f out of town is absolutely the right move. #monsterdon
Before the pandemic you could get a Stepford wife in about 2 weeks. #Monsterdon
She's taking pills... Uh, oh
#monsterdon

They're all tech bros!
Literal chills when she was like "like the robots in Disneyland"
okay we should be getting to the reveal
"She'll be like one of those robots in Disneyland!"
Yes, Listen to her
#monsterdon
Blink doc.
You're freaking me out.
The shrink is "going away for the weekend"? Oh no.
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives
I'll you need is a nice weekend away with your husband
like i guess there's going to be robots or something but we all know it's not really about that
it's about women losing their shit under gender norms and sexism and particularly as housewives in the suburbs
@Taweret Unfortunately she cannot just say "It's like the Stepford Wives!" the way one of us would #monsterdon
Stepford is apparently the land of station wagons.
It is actually true that Truro and Wellfleet used to be lousy with psychoanalysts.
"How would they do that..." ποΈ ποΈ
#monsterdon
"They draw our faces, and they tape our voicesβ¦" SO CLOSE
@lytta Watching so many B-movies has atrophied my subtext muscle #monsterdon
this entire movie sure is metaphorical
is the psychiatrist brainswapped too?
#monsterdon
What weird doll or whatever is on the mantle?
Well, Bobby, I don't like that dress. #monsterdon
@lytta Yes. For once the real monsters really ARE the friends they made along the way. #monsterdon
a very bright women and recently widowed from her girlfriend you're allowed to grieve
Run away!

This psychoanalyst gets it
actually the forhers.com ad I got during the fight might have actually been a little more on the nose
@ohiofi spider-pig, spider-pig #TeamSpider
Omigod, look at Walter's shirt collar! He looks like the Flying Nun!
#monsterdon It's not a fixation when a man does it, apparently.
Why was there an artistic shot of a drown rat? Teh hell?
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives
is that a dead rat or opossum or something
Katherine Ross is the real monster, with that dangerous driving!
beautiful shot of isolation

Get the flip outta there.
Your kids?
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives
If your hubby invites you to go on a Special Date Weekend just GET AWAY NOW #Monsterdon
as soon as YOU get off your ass and start cleaning the floor, bitch, that's when. #monsterdon
Oh no! They got Bobbi!
The annual weekend at the plaza. #monsterdon
yeah, that's good parenting...
#monsterdon
*sits down angrily*
@moira Mom I just wanted a Pepsi! #monsterdon
βWeβll never fight again kids I promiseβ

It's social scenarios like this that soured the public on the Carter administration #monsterdon

Jo. Anna. You have to stop when you see the schoolbus! Even if you're afraid to be robo-ed.
BOBBY NO! I take back what I said about the pencil portraits! :blobfoxcry:
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives
NOOO! Not Bobbi :(
@moira I feel like the intersection of tradwife and consumerism is very intentional here.
She's driving that station wagon like it's the Dragula!
Bobbie, I hardly knew ye :( #monsterdon
Oh no donβt go to The Plaza #monsterdon
cue the evil dead chainsaw arm killdozer escape from stepford scene ASAP #monsterdon
Sassy Bobby was so much better than frilly Bobby #monsterdon
Here, look at the pictures of children swimming that I took without anyone knowing... like a normal person?
Wow the nipples are perky in this movie.
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives
She's walking away, and it's important to watch her walk away. #Monsterdon
:( Bobbi's a gonner
#Monsterdon
I have to admit I couldnβt deal with the creepy and noped out of this weekβs #monsterdon
That she is a photographer, and artist is great for this story. She is a crazy lady with a creative talent. She is expressive her true self. And she's up against... the opposite.
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives
noooooo #monsterdon
The a/c in the gallery is on high, apparently. #Monsterdon
The Plaza is the brain-swap operation lab?
I thought they'd be swapping the dog Fred for a robo-dog before they moved on to the latest wives.
@amyfou It is like the sublime, the beautiful, and the picturesque but dumber.
Whatβs an ITTVP? #monsterdon
@JoeyBoughtACola But jean shorts aren't bellbottoms #monsterdon
First guy to make a robot out of that lady gets free beer for a year #monsterdon
Obligatory 1970s mentioning of losing one's virginity strikes yet again.
What is it you want from it all? That's the monster in this movie.
Lovely > good > nice.
@amyfou ahh. Poor Fred! #Monsterdon
"What is it you want from it all? Do you know?"
"I guess I want to be remembered."
Jean shorts were huge in the 70s.
How do you amuse the kids? Seems like they are amusing themselves just fine just leave them alone #FreeRangeKids #GenX #Monsterdon

Joanna and what's his name's kids were basically invisible this whole time how are there this many kids between her and her friend??
i mean, as someone who also doesn't like children, i get it, but like, figure it out dude, they're kids, not aliens. #monsterdon
@lytta I think this is the wait it out stage. #monsterdon
@jonny it's just very confusing how they never resolved the dog thing and then offhand mention he's gone... but i guess i WILL FIND OUT
@fabio Kind of a theme in #Monsterdon TBH
#monsterdon does gen-x know all their conservative memes about garden hoses are in this movie, is that why it is a classic?
More belly shirts... and annoying children. But belly shirt and sheep dog!
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives
DOG! DON'T LOOK AT THE CAMERA! Goddammit
#monsterdon they have a zip line! No fair, I always wanted a zip line. Phooey!
