Cape Fear (S1, Ep. 3) "Phantom Sensations"



Apple TV’s Cape Fear is turning into a masterclass in psychological warfare. “Phantom Sensations,” the series slams on the gas as Anna embeds herself in Max’s inner circle, a new predator targets the Bowden children, and a legendary piece of cinematic history detonates Max Cady’s sense of control.

It’s got a sharp ensemble cast, lots of chaotic roommate energy, and a fake wedding scheme that completely spirals. Here’s my full recap and review of the season.
