I had already seen the movie when I purchased this DVD. I wanted the unrated director's cut because it provides a more chilling insight into the mind of the serial-killer stepfather than the rated version. Overall, it is a decent remake of the original "The Stepfather" from 1987.* * I don't provide spoilers or elaborate critiques of any kind in my reviews...judge for yourselves.

Dylan Walsh (Nip/Tuck) is the perfect husband and step father to the children of Susan (Sela Ward) only things are not as they appear. The perfect step father is hiding a dark and sinister past and he is willing to go to any lengths to make sure no one finds out about his past. The movie was originally made in 1987. The original movie scared the heck out of everyone and this one does the same. Walsh is perfect for this role as he plays a demented man who works his way into the lives of a typical family. Very good for some intense scenes and for a few good shocks. and in the future watch out who you ask to move into your house.
Edge of your seat THRILLER. When the son arrives home from military school, he learns that things are not the same. Mom has a new man in the house. Suspicions arise when the son overhears a neighbor tell his mother how her boyfriend resembles someone seen on 'America's Most Wanted' then mysteriously dies. This prompts the son to began researching the man's past, how much does his mom really know??
I love "The Stepfather" films. I have saw all of the sequels. When I heard they had came out with another one, I had to see it. When I saw it. It was pretty good. Lots of suspense and chills in this horror film.
