Ep. 98 - The Stepfather (1987)

Waxing the Porpoise

Welcome to Waxing the Porpoise, the podcast that dives deep into the unexplored depths of cinema and occasionally the unexplained.

This week G-Baby and the Usual Suspect Steve once again welcome back special guest and friend of the show, Chris of the Mount Molehill podcast to raise the flag and rap about the ribald Terry O'Quinn family slayer with a heart of gold, The Stepfather from 1987.

Join us as we discuss the nuclear family, the American Dream and Anytown USA, one of Steve's favorite sub-genres of movie killers - the family annihilator, gearing up for Halloween season, and sing Terry O'Quinn's praises as an underrated actor in this underrated slasher.

The porpoises, midnight companions and keen observers, crest the shores of familial fanaticism and wade through the carnage left in its wake.

Let's wax this paternal porpoise.
