About this Event
POPCORN FRIGHTS LOADS THE CHAMBER WITH A DOUBLE-BARREL SCORSESE–DE NIRO EXPERIENCE FEATURING FOR ITS 50TH ANNIVERSARY IN A 4K RESTORATION ON FRIDAY, MAY 8, AND CAPE FEAR FOR ITS 35TH ANNIVERSARY ON SATURDAY, MAY 9. TWO NIGHTS. TWO LEGENDS. ONE SCREEN.
There’s nothing in the dark that isn’t there in the light… except fear. And CAPE FEAR turns that fear into pure, electrifying cinema!
From master filmmaker Martin Scorsese comes a full-throttle descent into Florida paranoia, obsession, and primal terror—a Southern Gothic nightmare that grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. This is cinema at its most alive: sweaty, dangerous, and crackling with tension you can feel in your bones.
Nominated for two Academy Awards, CAPE FEAR is powered by a disturbingly raw performance by Robert De Niro as Max Cady—a tattooed, scripture-spouting predator with a smile that chills you to the core. Fresh out of Pr*son after fourteen years, he isn’t just back—he’s watching, waiting, and tightening the noose around the life of his former defense attorney (Nick Nolte), whom he blames for everything.
What unfolds onscreen is a masterclass in escalating dread. As Cady infiltrates every corner of the attorney’s world—targeting his wife (Jessica Lange) and his vulnerable teenager daughter (Juliette Lewis)—the film transforms into a relentless psychological siege. One by one, Cady invades their lives until every safe space is gone and every moment is charged with unbearable tension. Every glance, every shadow, every note of the Bernard Hermann-inspired score tightens the suspense until it snaps in one of the most unforgettable showdowns in film history.
