Scorsese gave the film a strong horror temperament, which is far better than the original version, and the soundtrack and graphics are also used in an unusually reasonable way. The new combination of De Niro, Jessica Rango and Nick Knott is better than the original combination. De Niro's villain performance must be quite refreshing at the time, because he usually plays the "positive" The villain, Scorsese is also very nostalgic, and invited back the original cast of Parker and Mitcham to play two supporting roles.
In addition to the tension and blood that a general revenge movie should have, the film also adds a lot of reflections on the law and religion. How chilling is that a prisoner who started studying law books after he went to jail could discover the lawyer's problem? In fact, all walks of life are the same. Once you enter the industry, you will find that it is full of shady, bullying outsiders, and tolerance to insiders. This is the real horror, not simply a horror brought by Max Cady.
