Shelley with Terry O'Quinn in The Stepfather, 1987
Shelley starred in one of the most memorable horror flicks from the 1980s, The Stepfather. The film was loosely based on the life of mass murderer John List. Terry O'Quinn played the title role while Shelley and teen star Jill Schoelen played his latest mother-and-daughter victims. The film has since become a cult classic and has spawned two sequels and a 2009 remake.
