Happy Halloween! Of course, horror movies go hand in hand with the celebration of Halloween. And what better way to celebrate than to watch this classic horror-fest which has now been remastered and re-released on DVD. Since it's release in 1987, The Stepfather has become a cult classic and has even spawned a remake.
Entertainment Weekly has recently listed The Stepfather as number one in its list of "Sixteen Little-Known Horror Gems (“small films with big scares”)."
Entertainment Weekly cites the following as the three reasons for the inclusion of the film in its list:
1. It’s an underrated classic.
2. Stars the unsung Charlie's Angel Shelley Hack
3. You get to see Terry O'Quinn as a psycho “with a full head of hair.”
