Reviews'[Daniels] attempts to weave the film into the profile of Scorsese's filmography, with the unique take that Cape Fear is really a horror film and that certain horror film tropes and styles have informed most of his films... Mr. Daniel makes a thorough case and the reader learns a lot about Scorsese from this slim volume... Cape Fear is a must read for any student of Martin Scorsese.'

The director's love of fear cinema, his Catholicism and filmmaking techniques shift Cape Fear into terrifying psychological and psychosexual waters. The analysis also examines the influence of Gothic literature and fairy tales, plus how academic approaches to genre aid an understanding of the film., Martin Scorsese's Cape Fear (1991) opens with a shot of water and climaxes on a raging river.
