About

Sam Bowden witnesses a rape committed by Max Cady and testifies against him. When released after 8 years in prison, Cady begins stalking Bowden and his family but is always clever enough not to violate the law.
A predatory, terrifying presence haunts every frame as a vengeful convict systematically dismantles a lawyer's sense of security. This psychological cat-and-mouse game turns a quiet suburban home into a claustrophobic trap where the law offers no protection.
