Creepy and very scary, watch and try not to be a little weary next time you're in the shower. Many label in the start of modern horror although that praise should be given to Night of the Hunter. |

Some blame this film for the death of film noir. While I loved Hitchcock, I have never understood what was so great or scary about it. I will pass. |

Slightly overrated in my book. But still very good. A must see for everyone, especcially as an introductory to the genius of Hitchcock. |

What is it with Hitchcock and birds? |
|
This is my favorite Hitchcock film. He is the master os suspense and this film def proves that. I loved the acting and cinamatography the best in this film. I love the scene where Anthony Perkin's character gives Janet Leighs character something to eat. The thing with the birds was tight. Great film. |

We all go a little mad sometimes!! |
|
I am a big fan of Alfred Hitchcock. I have seen all of his movies, and think all of them are excellent. This one, however, is at the top of the food chain. Psycho is brilliant. Hitchcock gave this film excellent direction, and the acting was superb. Especially Anthony Perkins playing the role of Norman Bates. He always talked so fast, like he was nervous and anxious all the time. When he talked to Marion Crane about his mother, it gave me chills down my spine. "She just...she just goes a little mad sometimes. We all go a little mad sometimes." At that era, I don't think a better person could have delivered that line than Anthony Perkins. What makes this movie so great is its originality. Sure, there have been lots of films about "psychos," but this is pretty much the first one. The script... |

Welcome to the Bates Motel |
|
When it comes to classic horror/thrillers, "Psycho" is second-to-none. Based off of events that have been speculated as true, this film chronicles some of the earliest attempts at what makes scary actually happen in film. Alfred Hitchcock was a pioneer in what is known as "scary." He invented what is scary in movies and all of his techniques hold true even today. The film is the first of its kind to bring together a false protagonist, voyeurism, disturbing images, and mystery into a full-on clash of epic proportions. Come visit the Bates Motel for a night you will never forget! |
