Rating:  - stepfather III
The item arrived in the condition promised and it was great to finally be able to complete my library.
Rating:  - Why can't we have a normal family!
Let me start by saying I wish they'd release the first Stepfather on DVD like they did in Germany. They even put it out as an anamorphic widescreen! Oh well . . . looks like we have some catching up to do.
Now, you have to suspend your disbelief for certain parts of the movie. I won't tell you because I'm not a spoiler. Suffice to say that this is okay in comparison to the first. Some may even like it more than the first but that's just plain sacrilege.

The Stepfather returns!
This was a pretty good sequel, I thought.
There are not many times when a sequel is nearly as good as the original, but I think that Jeff Burr pulled it off nicely!

The first one RULES! Great psychological horror and a career-defining ... Read More
Rating: - A Surprising Good Sequel...Terry O'Quinn Owns Role...
THE STEPFATHER was one of the most minor but great horror films to come out in 1987. Terry O'Quinn fit the role perfectly, and the rest of the cast, while not all filling their roles to a tee, nonetheless supported him well, making his character all the more believable in his psychotic rage. Now, I saw STEPFATHER 3 before this one, and I wasn't impressed with the third one and don't plan on owning it anytime soon. But there was one reason I bought this DVD and decided to give STEPFATHER 2 a chance: Terry ... Read More
