The Stepfather (PG-13, Thriller) C+

When Michael, a High School senior returns home for the summer he discovers that his mom has divorces his Dad and that she has become engaged to a man she recently met. At the beginning of the film it is clearly established that this man likes to get engaged to widowed or divorced women and then decides to kill them. After a certain event occurs in the film Michael begins to suspect that there is something suspicious about his new stepfather. This movie would have been much better if it gave a better indication of what made the stepfather decide to kill families and what was going on in his mind. The movie seems to briefly touch on the idea that his conscience is bothering him but it never develops it to an interesting point.
