Growing up, there were two movies my mom told me I was never allowed to watch: The Silence of the Lambs and Cape Fear. Both are considered some of the best horror films ever made, and as of late, I’ve been warming up to the genre. So, I watched The Silence of the Lambs a few years ago, and thought it was very good. Now, with a Cape Fear TV show on the 2026 TV schedule, I figured it was time to give the 1991 flick a chance. I gotta say, after watching it, I see why my mom told me not to.
