Psycho Reviews
The movie Psycho is a masterpiece from Alfred Hitchcock, who knows how to use dreary lighting and eerie special effects to punctuate this movie with pure terror. Even Janet Leigh was so terrified when playing the shower scene (where she was viciously stabbed) that she never took a shower again. (I dont blame her!) I highly recommend this 1960 movie!
Great suspense! Watch from beginning.
Alfred Hitchcock is undoubtedly the master of suspense. He makes a lot of bold decisions throughout this film that would become staples in the horror genre. He uses the audience as a tool, he uses expectations to power moment after moment creating one of the best villains with the unseen Norma Bates constantly keeping the audience guessing as to when she'll show up again. Norman Is a sympathetic character the shock on his face as the bodies start to drop is fantastic, Anthony Perkins put his all into this performance.
My favorite movie!! Classic )
