I’m on my own again tonight so I’m hoping to find another gem like last night. The Stepfather has potential.

Ah yes, some good old ‘80s slasher nudity. Huh. He cleans up well. Looks downright respectable. Oh my, what a mess. Jerry’s home. Well that’s one way to win over the stepdaughter. Wow. Dude is delusional. Father knows best. This is a year after he murdered his family and he’s already someone’s stepfather? If you’ve been part of the family for less than a year, you don’t get a say in parenting decisions. Jerry’s up to something. Jerry is all red flags. Come on, Mom. Ooh murder house. What’s in the freezer? Relax Jerry. This actor reminds me of someone and I can’t figure out who it is. You almost gave me a coronary lights cigarette. Sir. Opening someone else’s mail is a federal offense. Not very smart, doc. Diabolical. Gosh, Jerry. Now you’re gonna have to clean up that mess. Why is it suddenly night. I mean it makes sense for body disposal, but it wasn’t late. Huh. That’s actually pretty clever. Fire destroys all. Ominous music. I wonder how many times ol’ Jerry’s had a redo. Yesss the library has the answers you seek. Love a good library scene. Dang, Jerry. Teenagers sharing an awkward goodnight kiss is hardly rape. Oh boy, here we go. Cleaning out the office. Looks like it’s almost time for a do over. You’re looking for trouble, Steph. So Jerry wants his American dream to just happen. He’s not willing to put in the work, but he’s willing to murder his family and completely rebuild his life until it happens. Shit’s about to go down. I know there’s a sequel, so someone has to survive. Jerry, no. We don’t stab dogs. More nudity. I know she’s not really 16, but come on. Turn around! Duuuude. You had a fucking gun. Why are you getting stabbed?! Daddy has jokes. They always slow down when they should be running. Get him, Ma. Omg this guy is the fucking terminator. Nobody make sure he’s dead or anything.

Closing thoughts: not bad. I might watch the sequels sometime. Yeah, there are two sequels. Apparently he didn’t die, which…how do you not die when you’re stabbed in the heart. Prime and Shudder are giving me some good recommendations this year. I liked this movie.
