When I found out a TV adaptation of Cape Fear, one of the best horror movies ever, was getting made, I immediately wondered how it’d pay homage to the films that came before it. Along with that, when I found out Martin Scorsese, who directed the 1991 movie, and Steven Spielberg, who executive produced the film, were EPs on the show, I had to know how they influenced it. So, I asked Nick Antosca about the notes he got from the two legendary directors, and he told me about one I’m very happy he listened to.
