Apple TV's 'Cape Fear' Is Easily One of the Year's Best Psychological Horror Thrillers | Review




With popular IPs being revisited every couple of months across film and television, the idea of remaking the '90s classic CapeFear feels like one of those projects that probably sounds better on paper than in practice. After all, Martin Scorsese's Oscar-nominated Southern gothic thriller based on John D. MacDonald's 1956 novel,The Executioners, remains a towering piece of psychological horror. Stretching that acclaimed tale into 10 episodes can be a little daunting, but as lucky as we are with Apple TV at the helm of quality storytelling, its highly anticipated miniseries from creator NickAntosca is not interested in just remaking what came before.
