Quite an efficient wringer to put one's nerves through. I've always wondered how actors live with themselves when they have to play people as nasty as the kind of people Bobby Mitchum used to play. As an "entertainment," I'd have to say that CAPE FEAR is more than a little bit depraved -- but what's really dismaying is how far its depravity has been outstripped by more recent pictures. Also -- like the original KING KONG, this is CLEARLY a movie that did NOT need to be remade!!

Under Quarantine Film Reviews #31: Peck vs Mitchum is the equivalent of Tyson fighting Holyfield and boy was it entertaining.

As with the other 60s flick remade by Scorsese, the original has a more dignified air about it and has more meticulously crafted filmmaking, but lacks the pure swagger of de Niro and Scorsese.

It was on in the background of a dive bar with no sound and no subtitles and Robert Mitchum still managed to draw people in and immediately creep them out.

Se você acha o Mitchum assustador em The Night of the Hunter é porque você ainda não viu o seu Max Cady, caralho, nem sei porque o Scorsese teve a pachorra de refilmar isso aqui. Na DarkFlix TV. Aliás, hoje a programação tá FODA, difícil escolher, escolhi esse por razões de Robert Mitchum.

This first adaptation of John D. MacDonald's novel "The Executioners" is a more black and white film in both literal and figurative ways. Peck has not wronged Mitchum in this version, and Mitchum is more straightforwardly evil. That's not really a knock on the film. Peck is more suitable for straightforwardly upright characters than Nick Nolte, and Mitchum is distressingly convincing as a truly reprehensible man.
