J H @UpstateNYThriller 4d 6.3/10 Thriller, Suspense, Psycho Not as good as the first 2 but still decent movie Gets plastic surgery and continues to hunt for family with single moms John Locke from lost See more Damien T @RT29719414 10/22/2023 Though initially I didn't like this film, after watching it again, I actually liked it! Terry O'Quinn did not return, but Robert Whigtnam's performance was wonderful for me as well, along with the direction, plot, score, but the screenplay was an average again. I think this film was not a bad sequel, but not the best one. I'll give this film 4.5 out of 5 stars and an "A" grade. See more 10/13/2021 Predictable from start to finish, yet with appealing performances by Pricilla Barnes as the endangered wife and especially aided by truly likable characterizations by John Ingle as the friendly, grandfatherly priest and child actor David Tom. This youngster is a treat: charming and boyish without being precocious. His delivery of a eulogy for his friend is heartbreaking. Overall, the movie is utterly formulaic yet worth seeing for these unheralded performances. See more steve d @RT35616104 07/10/2020 Without its original star it loses its charm. See more 12/22/2019 Every facet of this film makes make my skin scrawl. The wardrobes, dialogue, plot, the music, the villains hair, the carpet in the living room of the main house, the biological father. It's very difficult to not to watch. Is that kid the same person from Princess Bride? See more 11/09/2018 The first film in the Stepfather slasher film series was excellent! The second film was respectable. This third film felt unnecessary, particularly because it was minus the star of the first two films, Terry O'Quinn. This sequel picks up following the events of part two with the homicidal stepfather again escaping custody and this time getting plastic surgery, which explains the change of actor. Robert Wightman takes over as Keith Grant / The Stepfather and once again tries to find the perfect all-American family. This new family has Priscilla Barnes as the mother to a young wheelchair-bound boy, who is paralyzed for no medically explained reason. His condition is all in his mind and, of course, SPOILER ALERT! works its way into the film's finale where he has to use his legs to fight off his deranged stepfather. Wightman is passable as the stepfather and actually does a good job impersonating the odd Robert Young Father Knows Best speech cadence established by O'Quinn in the firsts two films, but he lacks the the edge and frightening mental instability O'Quinn brought to the role. Overall, this is a pretty run of the mill slasher flick. Nothing terrible, but nothing all that interesting either. Season Hubley, John Ingle, and Christa Miller also appear in the film.
