Episode description

Gregory Peck headlined the 1962 film Cape Fear, but it was Robert Mitchum's portrayal of serial rapist Max Cady that scandalized audiences. In 1991, director Martin Scorsese's remake would push those boundaries even further thanks to Robert De Niro's more violent, more explicit, and more carnal interpretation of Cady.

Topics include: the novel that inspired the story, Cady's relationship to Bowden prior to the film, alternate casting choices, the Spielberg version of the remake that we'll never get to see, what sets Nick Nolte's version of Bowden apart, why the original film received an X rating, the Simpsons parody, and much more!
