Heavily influenced by "The Stepford Wives" (1975) and I'm really happy about that...

Rating: 9/10 (27 December 2019)

When I watched "Get Out", I had no idea of "The Stepford Wives" (1975) existence. So my first thoughts were "clever, intelligent, alternate representation of racism, authentic, prototypical, unique". One day I wanted to watch a high quality classic film, preferably horror. And this is how I found "The Stepford Wives" (1975). After watching this film, I started to realise that had many similarities with "Get Out". According to the producer of this film, "The Stepford Wives" was a big influence for the making of this film.
So my review had to be changed. One of the main ideas, the brainwashing, was the same, but for the different reasons. I appreciated the fact that they used this specific social problem as the main topic of the film (racism) in combination with science, biology, hypnosis etc.
Let's get in the plot. I really liked the fact that we had a really clever protagonist from the beginning of this film. Unfortunately it lacks in many films. I liked how the mystery was unfolding. "Creepy" is the suitable word.
Very good performances. Especially doctor and the servant's one. The directing was also very good. But the most important thing was the fact that there are many memorable scenes from this film, that are hard to forget. I don't want to forget.
The gore is mediocre, but is visible mostly at the end of the film. It also contains much agony, which I love and of course it contains some comedic scenes by the protagonist's friend. I really enjoyed watching this film.
In conclusion, is this film authentic? Yes and No. Is there parthenogenesis in art? Not at all. Was this film creative? Way more creative than you think, since it blended many topics into one. It still gives me chills.
Highly recommended!
