Classic

Rating: 9/10 (26 April 2010)

One of my all time favorite movies. This movie got me into the old black and white films even though its came out after most of the ones I love. This is an American classic. Every one knows it or at least knows the score or the shower seen. It has been copied in so many movies and TV shows. Every time I think of a spooky house I think of the "Psycho's" house on top of the hill. The camera angels used were a major part of the movies uniqueness, it really added drama. And even though the shower scene didn't show the the woman getting stabbed it didn't matter. It was a montage shot (lots of short shots put together) and it added thrill. Then at then end of the scene when you see the blood spinning down the drain and then it spins into her lifeless eye is the BEST.
