There have been lots of Psychos, but only one immortal masterpiece

Rating: Null/10 (29 May 2006)

This movie was by far the best horror movie I have ever seen in my life. I watched it for the first time a few months ago, and I got addicted to it and everything connected with it - I've even written some stories about it.
Alfred Hitchcock is a genius and in this movie he does not fail to show it. This movie has so many deeper meanings, it's impossible to list them all. Some people even think that in the scene where Norman walks down the hill to greet Marion and even though it's raining he doesn't have his umbrella open, is a sign that Norman is impotent! Well, I don't know about that, but it's possible! I loved the twist at the end, and that smile...it's stuck in my mind. The movie has so much suspense it's amazing. It will keep you guessing right until the end. And you can really sympathise with Norman while watching it...it really makes you think that he's innocent. In fact, he seems very sweet to me.
There is absolutely nothing bad about this film, and it is my all-time favourite film. Every person who likes watching a true classic horror film, this should be at the top of your list.
Shot in glorious black and white, the cinematography, music and suspense in this film are all filmed to perfection. I'm shocked Hitch didn't get any awards for this amazing film.
I saw the film in May, and I am now waiting with anticipation to read the novel! This movie is highly recommended, I am sure you will love it. Watch this before anything else!!! 11/10, but since this is not an option, I'll stick with ten! My all-time favourite film.
Don't forget: there are lots of imitations of Psycho, but there's only one masterpiece! The only decent attempt to "do a Hitchcock" has been Brian De Palma's "Dressed To Kill," which is decent, but no one will ever match The Master.
