Cape Fear 1962 Trailer

[chenispeese]

don't feed the trolls

[factboy74]

The remake was good but it can't hold a candle to the original. Mitchum's Max Cady is untouchable.

[swinetastic]

The funny thing is that both Mitchum and Peck was in the 1991 newer version, Mitchum played a cop giving the lawyer advice on how to trap Max Cady. While Gregory Peck played a lawyer in Max Cady's defence. Ahh.. directors subtle taste of irony ^_^

[mindstormsabrewin]

Not sure how true this is but I heard that when asked why he chose acting, Mitchum replied: "It beats working."

[Lolabelle59]

I love Mitchum but not in this movie!!!!

(Vewwwy Scawwwy)

[tylerf13ful]

remake is better

[Cleon29Warrior]

@tylerf13ful Bollocks!

[MrPopeye232323]

Gregory peck...Great actor

[doglips1958]

NOBODY can play a cold hardass like Robert Mitchum.He is just plain spooky!!!

[heheheheokayman]

Quit arguin' ya sissies. Both movies are perfect in each way. There is no comparison.

[elmarco1984]

You had me at "Co starring telly savalas!"

"whos stalkin ya baby!?"

[adzoss]

why is the tone of everybody's voices in black and white old movies completely different to how people today sound ? the daughter in this sounds like she's about 50!

[bosnia91]

it's too bad that the acting of Sam Bowden and his wife is horrendous, it would've been great. That's why old movies are shit, they don't know how to show emotions in a believable way.

[thEannoyingE]

@bosnia91 really? I thought the acting was great, very suspenseful :)

[bosnia91]

@thEannoyingE How could you think it's suspensful, when the lines are delivered so forced and unexpressful? There's no smoothness what so ever. Altough compared to the woman that played Sam Bowdens wife it's fucking Oscar material. That woman fucked up those scenes where she was supposed to feel worried about the daughter.

[greensucksbluerules]

@bosnia91 Are you seriously criticizing Gregory Peck's acting?

[bosnia91]

@greensucksbluerules yeah, if that's what you would call acting...

Shit i could do a better job than this. 

[greensucksbluerules]

@bosnia91 You probably think Alan Bagh should have won an Oscar for Birdemic.

[bosnia91]

@greensucksbluerules i've never seen that movie.

[greensucksbluerules]

@bosnia91 You'd enjoy it.

[thelupoistheman1]

@bosnia91,

Hey mothafucker, that's Gregory Peck you're making fun of. That Atticus Finch.

[tracytcb111111111111]

I love this movie my 2 fav actors in a great movie robert and gregroy 2 wonderful men handsome real gentlemen RIP GREGROY PECK ROBERT MITCHUM u are both loved and missed xxx

[cb2198]

Don't mind me counseleh I'm just... gettin' a ganduh at the rest of ya famileh.

[blablaidontcarewhour]

I don't get what the fuss is about. Both the original and remake are great films on different levels.

[Andreas748]

I havne't seen this original. Looks pretty good. 

[3511putman]

Liked the daughters in both versions.

[jhonnies123]

this version is far better than the remake .asholes

[degree7]

Christ, I hate old movie trailers, they lack subtlety, lol

Just as the narrator is telling you in a loud voice about a "Nightmarish Thriller"

[bosnia91]

It's too bad that Gregory Peck and his family sucked ass, their acting was equivalent to a fucking stone.

[MrPolskadupa]

Wasn't peck in the new one

[hjb103055]

@MrPolskadupa Both he and Robert Mitchum were in the new one.

[Tabish29]

@MrPolskadupa So was Mitchum.

[BelovedCaptain]

Remake doesn't look good.. not like this. Mitchum was such a creepy character!

[ShitFromShinolla]

Yeah I know.... Gregory Peck was one of early Hollywood's Communist actors. 

[hjb103055]

@ShitFromShinolla No he wasn't. Google him and read Gregory Peck - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

[dkupke]

In some ways Mitchum's version of this character was much more real. He was not as superhuman as DeNiro's version, and much more thuggish and scuzzy. Added to that, Mitchum looked like a guy who could prolly kick ass but play victim when he needed to.

[NielDaRebelde]

VERY very rarely does a remake surpass the original.I suggest everyone here to watch Martin Scorsese's version,watch De Niro's insane transformation.

[robwayne1000]

@NielDaRebelde I think the new Last House on the Left was Kick ass. I personally think the new remakes are better because the choreography and the acting is going to be a little better.

[PhantomCloneInX]

Haha, I like how the narrator is calling it "a nightmarish thriller" during a rather boring shot of Gregory Peck bowling. Amusing.

Anyway, this movie was pretty good. I didn't find it as intense as the remake though.

[deemilieu]

yes, this was from a time when men still had balls...

[0HollyHood0]

the remake is the best

[42dieppe]

Both of them are very good.

[JordanPar]

Deniro = Better Actor, Scarier

[1915fas]

@JordanPar This reminds me of Mitchum's observation about De Niro, Pacino and Hoffman: 'They are all small.'

[whiskeyify]

Robert Mitchem scares the hell out of me in this film, he doesn't have to act to be tough, he was a real tough guy in real life.

I read that he got into a bar fight with a well known boxer at the time and kicked the guy in the head and knocked him out.

[sirpico123]

@whiskeyify tell me who it was, i`ve got to know

[whiskeyify]

@sirpico123, read about it somewhere, they did not say who it was

[damojtk]

@whiskeyify wat a hero

[UnpunishedMovie]

Mitchum rules to this day.

[mrbriscoe2001]

so much better than the sequel...made for Black and White......tfor some reason Scorsese felt a need to up the violence level..so he puts in a truly grotesque rape scene,and goes for shock over suspense and imagination.;Deniro WAS excellent in the remake,though...

[heliocuervos]

boooring!

[badgerfaye]

Disagree, great film, and so very very modern in its style and outlook. Well ahead of its time.

[TheNevenko21]

O.k., De Niro was perfect and scary in film, but Nick Nolte's act was so great (swetting, shaking, cigaretes...etc), that after a second or the third time watching it...i reallise that he gave a more brilliant role than De Niro !

[sparkidee]

hahaha there is old skool hardcore remixes of this film! lol

[gzyv15a]

This movie was way better than the Scorsese version. It's more believeable and Robert Mitchem is a real scary guy.

[darkglasses]

I definitely prefer the original. It doesn't clobber you over the head stylistically, like the Scorsese one does. It doesn't really need to, with those actors and that soundtrack.

[huzoso]

"i got something planned for your wife and kid that they aint never gonna forget... they aint never gonna forget..."

[SpockOfRock]

This movie sure did give "Psycho" a run for it's money didn't it?

[QueenKnightofHearts]

Psycho is still better

[anisblond]

The new Cady(De Niro)is much scarier than Mitchum,altough briliant actor!

[pegleg747]

Huh??? De Niro overacted to the point of hilarity.

[sirpico123]

@pegleg747 very true, glad i`m not the only one to notice that

[PaceAmoreGioia]

Robert Mitchum strikes fear and antagonism like no other actor of his time. Great movie...I was in like sixth grade when I first saw the original (I've never seen the DeNiro one) 1962 version and it scared me to bits!

[ZOMBIETEASER]

this looks cool, i avnt seen this version x

[Jimpsterz]

the music is great in the orig

orig is the king of that,

THE ORiG!!!!

[warpfaber]

Hehehe, no doubt at all, Martin Scorsese ate this alive!

[loverplease]

the original-version is the best,only!!!

[HarryPowell7]

As many have already said, Mitch was Max Cady.. and there were scenes Mitch brought to the role which did'nt make it past the censor...

[cantc23]

i just watched this movie, i thought it was very, very nice. i want to watch the remake now.

[cantc23]

hey author, yeah, i could understand why you would do it, but that comment my buddy left, it was a legitimate comment... so yeah...

[droogdude]

The best apart of the new Cape Fear: De Niro. You don't want to fuck with him. Overall though, the film wasn't that great. De Niro was what made it worth watching.

[Imran500]

Taxi Driver is awesome too.

[thnks4thecrml]

Don't you think just imagining what is happening sometimes is a lot scarier than actually seeing it?

[johndege]

I much prefer the original '62 version with Mitchum, who -- with his garish hat and shirts -- resembles a hulking, malevolent Bing Crosby.

[zookeeper216]

I liked Robert Mitchum-Gregory Peck. They had sex appeal. I could never get into De Nero,he did nothing for me.

[Justingo7]

During the Great depression Robert Mitchum was a coal miner, ditch digger, boxer and a bouncer and lived on the streets when he was 17 he jumped on trains to get accross the country, he even got expelled from school for fighting so many times, but he told them by law they had to let him go back to school and they did, De Niro had nothin on him, Mitchum owns

[Justingo7]

and he escaped from a chain gang when he was 13

[mamakunem]

Deniro had trouble growing up too & he had other crappy jobs just like any person before they get famous, but to compare a troubled childood & though jobs to someones acting ability is just absurd. Mitchum is an overrated actor who can't ever fill De niro's shoes. Deniro interpretation of Cady was perfectly impeccable. Mitchums thuggish history only says one thing, he played Cady like a simple Thug, nothing more. Deniro brought an inner rage a sleek psychological element to the character...

[Justingo7]

i wasnt talking about that. i ment id be more cautious with Mitchum then deniro, BC deniro is not as big or threatoning as Mitchum, everybody filming movies with Mitchum was intimidated by him, his appearance was way more intimidating than deniro TCM even said Mitchum was one of the toughest actors in hollywood of all time so thats why he is a better choice for the role Max Cady, dont get me wrong Deniro is a great actor but last i recall Mitchum is ranked ahead of him.

[boogaludo]

you're absolutely right, and Robert Mitchum was also the better Calypso singer...

[bigboss25262]

This version absolutely pales in comparison to the 1991 remake starring robert de niro and nick nolte

[bakanagaizin]

hahaha good one. Mitchum would wreck Deniro.

[geargemartin]

the only version worth watching.

[talkingboony]

fuck off the new 1 rips the old ones ass there has never been a better thriller then the 1991 cape fear u just cant beat it

[texasB666]

you just can't top bava's masterpiece and in B/W ..anyway i could discus this for hours and days but i think scorsese's pic did a very very well job,i compare the first to hitchcock ,wich is superb(i don't want to talk ANYTHING negative from the master) but its just more of a real thrillerish vibe in scorsese's one ..to my opinion

[mamakunem]

deniros version was not at all a remake. its an original masterpiece as far as im concerned. this one doesnt come close to scorseses vision. watch Rob Agers review and analysis of Cape fear and you'll know what I'm talking about.

i like this one too.

[bakanagaizin]

Deniro was a clown in the remake. Mitchum is much more chilling in the original.

[mamakunem]

that is only your opinion.i don't think either one played the character better or worse, just differently. but if i had to choose it would be deniro. Mitchum was too much of a uneducated thug. i think he lacked a sort of psychopathic intellect and inner rage that deniro had, but if Mitchum chilled you with his version, good. all that matters is the experience.

robert deniros ' Max Cady' had a deeper role though. check out Rob Ager's analysis on 'Cape Fear" it's brilliant along with his others.

[HarryPowell7]

Mitchum an uneducated thug ?? lol.... Oh and Mitch had experience....too much away from "acting"....I respect your opinion...and I respect De Niro..Mitchum WAS Cady tho...De Niro was just acting..

[mamakunem]

again, that is just your opinion. he is a better Cady only in your opinion. no one "is" Cady". they both played him differently... it's a fictional character and he can be interpreted in many ways and in my opinion Mitchum is an overrated actor who can't ever fill de niros shoes.

[warpfaber]

Ahahahaha you're a dumbass!, there's no doubt that DeNiro's character is much better, you can't even compare him, you have no right... It's even absurd!

[mamakunem]

are you responding to me? because you're actually agreeing with me. i think deniros way better than mitchum. and that's what i stated all throughout my numerous comments..read every word before you leave a dumbass comment....dumbass.

[warpfaber]

Sorry pal, I wrote this down in the wrong spot, off course I agree with you, the dumbass is the one who thinks this version is not boring because is older than pyramids... Heheheh...

[warpfaber]

Ahahaha you cannot be more wrong... This Cady just made me laugh and feel secure enough to fight him back without cowardice, DeNiro's Max Cady is a real badass noone will dare to face, Mitchum is a great actor, but times change and are currently so different, past actors are great in their epoque but noone will act like they did these times...

[bigboss25262]

A clown?! Have you even watched the remake?

[honeegrrl]

I remember watching this movie in a theater class in college and my teacher said that they couldn't use the word rape in the movie because of the censors s they used attacked but in the remake they used the word raped because by that time times had changed.

[texasB666]

yes i imagine so ..but why do 'critics' rip on scorsese's re-make ,the first one is realy good but scorsese's remake is also realy good ,i like B/W movies alot and it's been told a billion times that the 1st one is ALWAYS (well almost) better but with deniro en nolte well i gotta say ,i liked scorsese's more than the first one ,i can't help it but it's just more deranged..well let's not talk about Ex. the remake of the day the earth stood still or the ALMOST re-make of black sunday etc

[BIGDADDYJOHNSON27]

this aint got shit on de niro

[Thirdeyedreamer]

De Niro is fucken WAAAAYYYYY better!!

[3investigators]

Math or no - I agree, the original is the one to watch. Remakes, in general, are usually just exercises in unoriginality.

[tootruchy99]

This is a great thriller but inferior to the 1991 remake starring Robert DeNiro. This is coming from someone who really doesn't like remakes!

[maxi937]

The remake is just TOO MUCH! This film is simple, and much scarier.

[jutubaeh]

@maxi937 the remake is typically tropical trash lol

i mean "nick nolte" come on hes good enough for nigga comedies...

[peppersax]

@jutubaeh

Nick Nolte is also good enough for redneck, white mobile park trailer trash:)

[OzTerri]

do ya wanna roooon all of us???

[3investigators]

The 1991 version of "Cape Fear" is indeed a direct remake of the original 1962 film and even used the exact same Bernard Herman music score. The plot and characters as the same as the original. Gregory Peck and Robert Mitchum also made cameos in the remake. Do the math kids:)

[quornholio]

I'd do the math, but the original is better because the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

[bianca66porter]

what's scary about this version is that max cady doesnt have a proper reason for attacking peck's family. in the 1991 version the lawyer hides evidence. in this ...?

[geordietart]

this is a mint film like and i like this 1 more than the de niro 1 like

[ciarraL]

wow i didn't realize the deniro version was a remake. i definitely wanna check out the original sometime.

[ge1gi2mi3]

So much better than the remake although DeNiro is a good actor. Mitchum was the best and you can't top the best. I think "black and white" film gives it an extra punch inteasd of color.

[qwerty222dgasdhafsdh]

You're an idiot if you think Scorcese's Cape Fear is a remake, it is actually totally different then the first Cape Fear. Type in and search "Cape Fear analysis", you'll find they are totally different.

[richardmoores]

stop calling people idiots just because they're behind a computer and they'yy never see you. just say you disagree with them.

[Lillogambino]

yeah thats true, i think to do that its a faggoty thing.

[23BOT]

i agree, deniros a good method actor but mitch was a natural for these parts , like Night of the Hunter etc

[cinnaplid]

I totally agree with you, dapoetmaster and fieldday42. Mitchum WAS Max Cady. If you've ever read the John D. MacDonald book (and I'd highly recommend it), you think of a guy like Mitchum, not DeNiro. Big, snaky, and scary!!!!

[dapoetmaster]

Mitchum absolutely owned that role. DeNiro was great, his take on the character, as observed by someone else here, was pushed into a camp realm by necessity I think.

I prefer Mitchum's interpretation, he could do physically, what Deniro needed more charaterization, voice etc, to convey.

[KamasutraButterfly]

Yes, it seems like modern actors almost never live up to older actors. I wonder if people's expectations have been raised or if modern actors are simply bad actors?

[dapoetmaster]

So much has changed, there is really no basis to compare modern with classic actors. It's like apples & oranges.

[fieldday42]

Great film. Mitchum is perfect playing a murderous brute. He's chilling & cold calculating. Someone you definitely don't want to mess with. Even though DeNiro was excellent, I prefer the original Cape Fear. Much scarier in a more hidden manner.

[Yanqui48]

Everyone is entitled to an opinion,I like DiNiro, but there was only one Max Cady and that was Mitchum...

[WMAV01]

I think the remake tops the original, but it's unfair to say it's better in writing or acting. When we went to see the remake in 1991, my ex screamed out loud in the theatre when DeNiro bit the hunk out of Ileana Douglas's cheek. That scene never could have been shown in 1962. Or could you have imagined Lori Martin french kissing Bob Mitchum in the original, the way Juliette Lewis did with DeNiro? It's all relative to me, they were both, and still are, outstanding films.

[swampzoid]

cape fear was filmed in my hometown of savannah, georgia the same year i was born there.

so, of course i love this film.

[pablinchi25]

ur 45?

[swampzoid]

yes, i am 45.

[pablinchi25]

lol my dad is 45

[Almondina]

I agree, Robert Mitchum and Gregory Peck?? What more could you ask for? They beat any and all other actors of this generation!!! Classics RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BuddyHollysEdselGirl]

It's a classic thriller!

[mensahcarrelle]

sorry but i definitely prefer the "remake"!the 1991's one CAPE FEAR is a masterpiece!

[dapoetmaster]

Mitchum was Max Cady. DeNiro did a fine job but the only way to follow Mitchum's performance was to notch it up into a ridiculous strata of performance which ended up as camp.

[1SECRETBILLY]

Mitchum was a mans man back when men were men and sheep were afraid to sleep. Yep

[ladylike1980]

This version of Cape Fear is 100 times better than the remake. Robert Mitchum, Gregory Peck - No one can hold a candle to these men, not even DeNiro.

[Em183]

yeah I like this version way better, he's such a great actor!

[billthestinker]

this movie is a classic Robert Mitchum is great and belivable as Max Cady a mean sob. Mitchum makes Deniro look like a fairy!

[alpacino185]

lol,well thats your opinion

[tisbutafleshwound]

I agree with "billthestinker"
