John List: Stepfather (2026)

Murder Made Fiction ·

2026/08/25

Our month of John List coverage wraps up with Taye Diggs in the Tubi title Stepfather (2026).Aside from a great lead performance, this one is a dud. Not only is it strangely more of a remake of the 2009 film, but it reverts back to problematic/inaccurate depictions of mental health and features way too many shitty cop characters who add nothing to the film!

John List: The Stepfather (2009)

Murder Made Fiction ·

2026/08/18

Our second John List title is Nelson McCormick's 2009 remake, The Stepfather starring Dylan Walsh and (often shirtless) Penn Badgley. It's bigger and longer and gender swaps the teen character...but curiously doesn't do anything with the newfound male energy. Plus: queer connections; questioning Walsh's casting; and joking about how 2000s era this film is. Wanna connect with the show?

John List: The Stepfather (1987)

Murder Made Fiction ·

2026/08/11

Our month of John List titles begins with the original The Stepfather (1987).Starring a magnetic Terry O'Quinn, this Reagan-era slasher film is the perfect takedown of outdated "father knows best" patriarchal beliefs. Plus: a debate about 'teenage' nudity; appreciating the production design; a gory opening; and a film where the dog doesn't die. Wanna connect with the show?

Boston Strangler (2023)

Murder Made Fiction ·

2026/07/28

Writer/director Matt Ruskin's Boston Strangler (2023) stars Keira Knightley and Carrie Coon as the Record American reporters who covered the infamous case.Too bad this one is such a snooze! In addition to being too long and drab, the film fudges plenty of facts and has no perspective other than "being a lady reporter is hard". It's a miss! Wanna connect with the show?

The Boston Strangler (1968)

Murder Made Fiction ·

2026/07/21

Four years after the last fictional adaptation, Compulsion director Richard Fleischer delivered a new fresh take on the case with 1968's The Boston Strangler.While Edward Anhalt's script uses the same tired pop psychology to excuse DeSalvo's crimes, cinematographer Richard H. Kline and editor Marion Rothman use split screens and transitions in an incredibly exciting way. Plus: charismatic Tony Curtis and interrogating queerness (with a bisexual-coded Bottomly?)
