CAPE FEAR Apple TV

The thriller (inspired by the 1963 classic and the 1992 remake) stars Amy Adams and Patrick Wilson as married attorneys Anna and Tom, who are targeted by a vengeful felon they put behind bars when the terrifying Max Cady is released from prison and hunts them down. Like the remake, the 10-part series is directed by Martin Scorsese and produced by Steven Spielberg.
