Movie Review by Lisa

I have been known to be a little dismissive of some of the old movies in favor of their more colourful (and sometimes more hard hitting) remakes. However recently I came across the original version of "Cape Fear" (...yeah I know who knew) my first thought was errgh I wanted to see the De Niro one, but I thought what the hell try something new (or old as the case may be).
Robert Mitchum and Gregory Peck where absolutely amazing and this 1962 movie was just as shockingly creepy as its later remake. I honestly felt ashamed that I discounted this movie and suitably reprimanded myself.

| The original is far superior to the remake. They were going more for gory in the newer version whereas this worked better on a suspense level. I'd say that if you liked RED EYE, this is a good flick for you. |
