The Stepfather (1987), directed by Joseph Ruben, Shout! Factory 4k remaster, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including original theatrical Ultra Stereo, four commentary tracks, and English subtitles.
IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094035/
Video encoded in two-pass 15.0 Mbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image. Audio encoded separately with Apple AAC for the highest-quality AAC sound available. Subtitles converted to SRT.
Note : Here's a culty little psychological horror from the late 80s, a blend of the 80s slasher with the more serious kind of serial killer thriller that became popular in the 90s, and it's pretty good, featuring a slam-dunk psycho performance by Terry O'Quinn, backed by Jill Schoelen and Shelley Hack. The killer is not just inside the house, he's inside the family! What's not to like?
Henry Morrison murders his entire family, changes his identity, and disappears. One year later, he's taken the name Jerry Blake and married widow Susan Maine, and they're seemingly happy, although his stepdaughter Stephanie is wary of him and his motives, despite her therapist urging her to give him a chance. At the same time, Jim, Jerry's former brother in law, is hunting his sister's killer, and runs an article about the murders in the newspaper, which upsets Jerry when he sees it. This further arouses Stephanie's suspicions, and she starts to dig into Jerry's identity, unknowingly putting herself, her mother, and everyone around them in danger.
This is a decent 4k remaster, with good color and nice enough contrast, though the blacks are a bit crushed at times, and it gets murky and grainy when the shots get dark. Stereo track sounds fine, and all the commentaries are worthwhile.
