Sent to jail for a crime he did commit, a newly released felon has some pain he's to inflict, on the witness that sent him away for eight long years, for the scars of internment that he carries and he wears, stalking his prey without cover or disguise, the family of Sam Bowden see their world start to capsize, a vengeance full of hate, a psychopath intent, eight long years of brewing, chewing, digest and ferment.
Robert Mitchum delivers a tremendous performance as Max Cady who leaves you under no illusion of the torture he intends to inflict, psychological and physical, on the family of the man responsible for his incarceration. Gregory Peck plays Gregory Peck, but as elegantly as ever.
