Sometimes huge hits, sometimes box office bombs. Either way, we have to ask: WTF Happened To This Horror Movie?

U gotta admit The Simpsons parody of the episode featuring Sideshow Bob is one of the best lol
Kelsey Grammar really hammed it up well indeed
My favourite episode 😄
💯
lol yeah, I love it to. Especially hitting everything on the road.
@@thedys70 He sure did
Robert DeNiro was absolutely terrifying in this
He was typically over the top and awful. And the movie is nothing compared to the original.
@@trhansen3244 well, the violence and sexuality of this one was over the top compared to the original as well.. I don't think his performance ruined anything. When I saw the color out of space, I kind of felt at times that Nicholas Cage being Nicholas Cage was a bit over the top and distracted from the visuals and the story. Did you feel like DeNiro's performance was inappropriate in relation to the other characters? I agree that the original Cape fear is superior, (I may be a bit biased, since the night of the hunter is one of my favorite movies), but as far as remakes go, I think this one holds up pretty well...
@@trhansen3244 that’s because you love Trump. GTFOH 😂
@@truthteller5521 Me not love Trump. Me always not like Deniro. He basically plays himself in every role. And you are a little gurly man!
This was his worst character and performance
It's hard to believe the auditorium scene was improvised. They both did a great job 👏
This is a case of the remake being just as enjoyable as the original. Robert DeNiro was absolutely terrifying.
Are you serious? The original is a truly great film. This movie is just pure garbage. Starting with DeNiro yet again playing basically the same character, which is basically himself. Never been a fan.
Remake sucked
@@trhansen3244 Exactly. Americans are so dumb, and call cheap imitations like this, Scarface and The Postman "masterpieces". These are just boring pornographic versions of the real disturbing sexy original versions
@@thomasdrish8488 Yes, the original was probably the last film along with Psycho before the death of cinema
@@EasternRomeOrthodoxy Liking or not liking a film or actor is not indicative of intelligence. It's subjective.
"Come out, come out. Where ever you are!" This was an intense movie.
I saw this when I was 10 and it absolutely haunted me for years. It scared me more than any slasher or monster movie by far. I finally rewatched it at 16 and was able to more successfully suspend reality and see it as more of an art house film. After several more years, having seen all of Scorsese’s films as well as Hitchcock’s- the memory of how much it terrified me remains. Seeing Cady brutally assault that poor woman at such a young age gave me a permanent awakening of just how monstrous one has to be to do this. It singlehandedly shaped my feelings about rape and violence- terrifying me so much that people like this actually exist. Therefore, you just can’t call the making of this film and its performances anything short of brilliant.
Did you ever watch Deliverance as a young man?
That’s bc this movies realistic unlike horror movies
“Counselor! Help me get my head outta this here toilet!” **flushing noise**
The bite is such a brutal piece of cinema.
This film came out during my adolescence, and that scene with Juliet Lewis in the auditorium stayed with me for years. But otherwise, it's a terrifying ride that's almost too well made for its own good, as it's tough to sit down and squirm through it.
I'm glad it helped you become aware of just how sadistic and depraved some human being can actually be, as it may have given you a level of awareness your parents failed to impart.
Every adolescent needs to know these sick individuals out there, but in an age-appropriate way (not suggesting this film is the way to go about it), because they DO walk amongst us, and some of them show up as psychopaths like Armie Hammer and do irreparable damage to the young women the traumatize (just like he did).
@@le_th_ I am one of them
@@yendevus1747 well nobody's perfect...
Maybe for a shallow American who is unfamiliar with the original film and the true golden age of Hollywood lol
True you're sickening pfp gives it away 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸@@yendevus1747
Plus, it's got Joe Don Baker at his Joe Don Baker-est. No other actor could enjoy a bourbon and Pepto Bismol more convincingly than him.
I actually prefer the original. Mitchums portrayal of Max Katy was more subtle and therefore more believable. Gregory Pecks best performance
The original is much better than this heavy-handed remake. And I say that while being a big fan of both DeNiro and Scorsese.
Nolte was perfect also. The whole cast was. What a classic. One of the best of all time
Damn, you said it. Scorsese also directed the most terrifying episode of Spielberg's "Amazing Stories" about a ghostly serial killer that got closer every time you saw your reflection. Shout out to the great Elmer Bernstein. I was a member of his "Filmmusic Collection" and loved his re-recording of Bernard Herrmann's rejected score for Hitchcock's "Torn Curtain". What he did with Herrmann's music from the original "Cape Fear" with the addition of other unused music was awesome. Freddie Francis brought his "Hammer Horror" influence. Stars all around. A terrific remake but that weirdly haunting sound of people screaming on a roller coaster made that ending so unsettling.
So, this serial killer was killing narcissists? I have mixed feelings about the societal benefits for that.
@@le_th_ Not necessarily. The "victim" was done in when he looked into someone's eye (spoiler) but would see the twisted looking killer anytime he saw a reflective surface... not unlike the "Weeping Angels" from Doctor Who.
Got to say it, this remake was better than the '62 original
The remake of Last house on the left was better (more fucked up) than the original. It's so cringy compared to the remake
I love everything about this film. The plot (of course), the pacing, the acting, and the impeccable editing from Thelma Schoomaker that has always lent itself beautifully to Scorsese's directing style.
Good ole Thelma.
Totally agree!
Love this movie... The ending is a little over the top and diminishes it somewhat for me, but De Niro as Max Cady is so damn terrifying in this role and it's in my top 3 of his best performances. The original is great too, though, Peck and Mitchum were awesome together, and The Executioners, while maybe not being John D. McDonald's best, is still a great read tok, although it's quite a bit different from either movie.
You hit the nail on the head with the music, the most iconic this side of Jaws for the thriller/horror genre
Funniest thing is that the Drew Barrymore’s Charlie’s Angels’ Sequel makes a parody of this flick, but I never made the connection!
You guys have phenomenal taste in movies thanks for keeping us entertained, and keeping the movie alive
One of the best suspense thrillers of the 90's Robert de niro was terrifying as max cady just pure evil and he didn't think he was doing anything wrong
Yes, Brillant performance.
@@SignOfTheTimes008 he was scary in that movie
Totally agree!
And CAPE FEAR (this 1991 version of course) is way better than the really overrated SILENCE OF THE LAMBS!
He was not at 3% bodyfat 😂
That was my first reaction lol.
Thank you!
Pretty fucking ripped for a 48 year old though. Fair play.
I still watch this a few times a year. Juliette Lewis & Jessica Lange are great in this.
If you like Lange, check out Rob Roy, she was great in that. And its an awesome swashbuckler
A few times a year?? I would have never guessed there are more crazys like me. I have litteraly seen this movie over a 100 times.
The mispronouncing of Mitchum drove me up the wall.
Meecham 🤣🤣🤣🤮
Yet another great performance by DeNiro. This is that movie when you see DeNiro be that intimidating performer. I still remember watching this as a kid and being blown away by how menacing his character was. One of my favorite films by Scorsese.
If an actor is an asshole and POS in real life, he'll be great at playing gangsters, criminals, and jerks in movies........
Great video! I would absolutely love a video about the 1992 thriller The Hand That Rocks The Cradle!
You got it! On of my favs. Dont f*ck with Rebecca De Mornay.
@@JoBloHorrorOriginalsYes!
Tyler you have the absolute best narration voice on the tube! You should narrate every classic horror book.
To this day this movie still haunts me dude. I love how dangerous and ferocious the art is. The scene with his daughter is truly dark af but it had purpose. It wasn’t designed to be gratuitous.
I’d love to see a remake to help bring back that old school style of chemistry and incredible acting
One of the shot at the beginning of the movie where we see Nolte super close to the screen on the left side (i think he is brushing his teeth) and his wife in the background on the right is such a weird choice.....i rewatched the movie a couple of days ago actually and that shot still makes me laugh...it looks kinda goofy. Actually we see it in this video at 6:54
That Wesley Strick story was hilarious
That's essentially how you close the deal.
Nick Nolte was superb in Cape Fear, totally different from his 48 hours persona he usually played in movies at this time.
My girlfriend had only seen the Simpsons version of cape fear, we when we watched this movie we kept cracking up remembering the parody version
I can't take "Cape Fear" seriously thanks to Sideshow Bob.
I always mix this film with he other wonderful film Manhunter. They both take place by everglades...
Oh yeah. Manhunter is trully underrated masterpiece. I rate it higher than Cape Fear
One of the best remakes ever made.
Homer: “Bartdoyouwantsomebrowniebeforeyougotobed?!” 🔪😂
3% body fat and his teeth grinded 😂 gimme a break.
Though young at the time, Juliette Lewis seems to have learned a lot from her father. She doubtlessly knew how to act and how to get parts.
She was amazing, she nailed her character. She was perfect in _Cape_ _Fear_ .
My FAVORITE! Awesome original score used in original movie version. Brilliantly done.
Juliette is brilliant in this movie. You forget that she was a kid.
Why do people think Spielberg can't do horror? The man's first big movie was Duel!
And Poltergeist
I am such a sucker for late '80s and early 90s big budget Hollywood thrillers!
Fun fact:
"CAPE FEAR" 1991 featured three actors that starred or could have starred in the "KING KONG" remakes:
Jessica Lange; who played "Dwan",
the 70s rendition of Ann Darrow in Para-mount's "KING KONG" 1976 remake.
Nick Nolte; who-along with acclaimed actor Robert Redford-could've played Jack Driscoll in Universal's first attempt of a Kong remake: "The Legend of KING KONG" from 1975-1976.
and
Robert De Niro; who was Peter Jack-son's choice for the more-villainous
Carl Denham in his initial vision of a "KING KONG" remake from 1996-1998.
If my mother had wheels she could have been a bike
Original 1962 movie with Robert Mitchum,Gregory Peck,Martin Balsamand Telly Savalas remains the best to this day...
By far!
Watched this in the cinema when I was about 16.... my heart was beating a mile a minute!
I love Cape Fear. It’s just a great suspenseful movie with really great actors in amazing roles.
Your comment is like those futile and sometimes fake reviews of a product: ”this is a very good product, I am satisfied”. :)
Nolte and Jessica Lange absolutely nailed it in their respective roles. But that said, I actually still prefer the original. De Niro did well with character he was chosen for, but Robert Mitchum was still more menacing in a certain sublte way in the earlier movie.
Great remake, I see people shitting on this version a lot in the comment replied but robs performance wasn’t overdone at all, he played a very terrifying character the original did not portray
Bill Murray as MAX CADY?!?!? 😂
Underrated movie, probably because it's so uncomfortable to watch. De Niro was absolutely brilliant, you couldn't take your eyes off him
Exactly!
If there’s one thing I’ll say is, Max Cady tries to plee his case for revenge but unsuccessfully so you never root for him. It would have been better if there was more grey area to his madness
Brilliant film, every performance is amazing.
Deniro was the embodiment of evil
No, the embodiment of pathetic perverted clown imitator of the original character by Robert Mitchum
There's a great "Cape Fear" skit from the Ben Stiller Show that deserves a mention
Awesome movie, the score was insanely amazing
Dammm they don't make master piece movie's like this anymore.
And find awesome actors like him anymore.
I actually think of sideshow Bob instead of Cape Fear
Robert Meetchum?!?!?!?
3:39 Pivot..pivot...pivot!!! 😏
Worst remake relative to the strength of it's original,.. until "310 to Yuma" The original had a family I could sympathize with. A District attorney who's faithful to his wife and they have a nice teen daughter. The remake had a criminal defense attorney who cheats on his wife and a daughter who's 'off the charts' creepy and perverted. She LIKES the sleazeball, at least at first. DeNiro gave a good performance and I could sympathize with Jessica Langue. Those are the only good points.
Mitchum's quIet, hovering presence was far superior to Deniro's performance.
Watched this trippin acid when it came out. Crazy!
Awesome film; top review.
Jessica Lang, one of the great over-actors of our day
She was hot!!!
I've got to thank the Simpsons for introducing me to this classic.
De Niro confused me in this movie, in some scenes he looked suitably angry, but in others (where he wasn't angry) it was clear he couldn't get into character.
Did anyone else notice this syncopation, the missing, uncovered range of emotion?
Very good remake...
The music mix well with the movie...
I saw the simpsons parody before I ever saw the remake. Both classics. Never seen the 60's original though.
3:56 Wasn't Keneally's book called "Schindler's Ark"?
Indeed it was... except in the US (and maybe Canada, not sure) it was released as 'List'.
No paranormal or supernatural things going on in this film, just strumming on the strings of man’s greatest fears
spooky...I literally only watched this last night !
Robert Meecham? I think he meant to say Robert Mitchum. And the Gregory Peck/Nick Nolte character is Sam Bowden. Who narrates this things anyway?
my scottish friend walked outta the theater watching this...i got it
My man DeNiro looks bonkos in the thumbnail lmao
A Masterpiece Cape Fear is Top Notch Imagine if Spielberg Directed it the whole entire movie would've probably have a different outcome.
Quick, someone do an AI art compilation of Bill Muarry as Max Cady in a Spielberg version of Cape Fear.
According to the internet Scorses and Spielberg are in talks of making Cape Fear into a series
I remember wedging this when I was 10. Awesome movie
One of the GRRReatest remakes ever made. So good it stands on it’s own away from the original.
Masterpiece of the thriller genre
Totally agree!
Could I imagine the director of Schindler’s List and The Color Purple directing Cape Fear? Urm yes, yes I could.
Counselorrr!
Sorry but i can't picture anyone else but Sideshow Bob when i hear this theme
"ice creamville" , "no, screamville"
From that shit kicking accent to the cheek biting and over the top dramatic music, I couldn’t stop laughing at certain scenes. ~_~
Me too. It's such a stupid film. That bit where De Niro dresses as the maid is hilarious!
I couldn’t stop laughing when the sweet old Black lady kept staring at DeNiro crawl from under the car. Nick snapping towards the end when he tried to bash Bobby’s head in with a rock was wild. The speaking in tongues had me in tears. >_
A masterpiece.
I hear that theme and think Sideshow Bob.
Deniro looking like Wolverine.
Whaddaya mean WTF happened? What happened was that Scorsese made a kick-ass film that ended up being his highest-grossing at the time.
What a classic movie
after watching this movie, i needed to see a counselor
The first movie I seen after coming back from a 6 month navy deployment
Absolutely weird and brutal
Great Movie, love it!
Amazing film
The hindi remake Badlapur is pretty kickass too
Nick Nolte? Darn I thought it was Josh Brolin. Maybe it was Nolte pulling a Brolin. This is one of those movies that I just couldn’t watch for a second time.
I absolutely love this movie. Its one of my top favorites. I think Robert Deniro did an amazing job with max cady. He achieved of of the hardest things to do with a character which is to be a villian everyone loves, hates, and fears.
Counselor! Counselor Oh Counselor!
Oh the irony you present this video on the same day that DeNiro finds himself the victim of a break-in at his home in NY
Great movie. De Niro is the Man in this movie.
If an actor is an asshole and POS in real life, he'll be great at playing gangsters, criminals, and jerks in movies........
@@colderbeer I know this from the incident with Mickey Rourke.
One of the rare cases of the remake being superior to the original. One of my favourites from Scorsese
WHAAAAT? this couldn't hold a candle to the original!!!
@@casedismissed8581 Not agree at all.
Martin Scorsese's directing is way far better than J. Lee Thompson's.
J. Lee Thompson is a joke next to Martin Scorsese!
@@Jeckxdeel so YOU say!
@@casedismissed8581 As you also say indeed!
@@Jeckxdeel🤪🤪🤪
That's nowhere near 3% bodyfat lol. Probably 12-15% if not more.
Bray Wyatt happened
