Sure, David Harris wants to slaughter his new stepfamily. But according to Dylan Walsh, the actor who plays the murderous psycho in the upcoming remake of The Stepfather, Harris is not that bad a guy. He’s just…got issues.
"He's stiff, and I imagine he's had these different families, and he's tried different things," Walsh said in an interview with Sci Fi Wire. "There's a repertoire of tricks, and they hadn't worked before, and he's trying to make this one work. That's what his flaw is: He's caught up in this old-fashioned way. He's well-meaning. It's just that he wants to control every facet of it."
"He's got this 1950s thing. He demands to be the head of the family, and what he says rules," Wash added.
The Stepfather is, of course, a remake of the 1987 horror film of the same name starring Terry O’Quinn (TV’s Lost

Judging from the fact that The Stepfather is a horror film, you probably guessed that the stepfather was the bad guy. After you check out this trailer believe, you'll start to wonder why you should see the movie. Not only is Dylan Walsh revealed to be the bad guy, but the really lay it out and let you know why he's doing it, how many times he's done it before, what he does to people who question him, and what his opinions are on corporeal punishment. In fact, when all is said and done - why do we need to watch this movie? Well, for one, Amber "I'm Hot" Heard is in it and two it looks like Dylan Walsh might drop a circular saw on her face. So it definitely has that going for it. Check it, and its strange yet awesome soundtrack choices, below. The Stepfather hits theaters this October and stars Nip/Tuck's Dylan Walsh

Taking time away from banging tranny minors (or whatever sick shit they're up on "Nip/Tuck" these days), Dylan Walsh is terrorizing a family as the titular psychopath in the upcoming The Stepfather remake. And if the recently released trailer is any indicator, he's pretty damn good at it. He marries into Sela Ward's family and when "Gossip Girl" dude stepson starts getting suspicious that he's a deranged, murderous sociopath, well, he becomes a deranged murderous sociopath. Check it out below. Daddy's home…to kill on October 16th.

2009 might be the year that converts back into thinking the horror genre can have upstanding films. First we had Drag Me to Hell, which stands out as one of the few horrors with an excellent production value, and now we have The Stepfather.
The Stepfather Trailer
Michael Harding (Penn Badgley) returns home from military school to find his mother (Sela Ward) happily in love and living with her new boyfriend, David (Dylan Walsh). As the two men get to know each other, Michael becomes more and more suspicious of the man who is always there with a helpful hand. Is he really the man of her dreams or could David be hiding a dark side?
Wow, who knew that Dylan Walsh had it in him to play such a dark character. He has the perfect look.

This morning B-d reader Joey M. tipped us off to the trailer for The Stepfather remake, which was directed by Prom Night's Nelson McCormick. While I typically shy away from Sony Screen Gems movies (they're made for kids), seeing Dylan Walsh from "Nip/Tuck" and the sexy, sexy Amber Heard (All Th Boys Love Mandy Lane) have made it worth checking out. What did you guys think of the trailer? I got a kick out of the "America's Most Wanted" image that looks nothing like Walsh's character. Screen Gems has slated the pic for release on October 16th, 2009. Michael Harding (Penn Badgley) returns home from military school to find his mother (Sela Ward) happily in love and living with her new boyfriend, David (Dylan Walsh). As the two men get to know each other, Michael becomes more and more suspicious of the man who is always there with a helpful hand.

Screen Gems remake of The Stepfather ( set visit preview ) opens October 16th and a trailer has made its debut today. Nip/Tuck 's Dylan Walsh plays the murderous pop who preys on Sela Ward and Penn Badley. Yeah, that's all great and good, but who cares? The film's got Amber Heard and that puts a grin on my face. Watch the trailer below and stay tuned for more coverage.
