Still has the wow factor, 60 years on.

Rating: 9/10 (1 January 2020)

A film that needs no introduction the world over and Hitchcock's, very finest achievement. The musical score by Bernard Hermann, is truly remarkable, as it keeps the nerves jangling throughout. The audience of the day expecting another variation of 'To Catch a Thief', got the very shock of their life. My own mother's friend (who was expecting), almost had a miscarriage at the movie theater! For sure, edge of your set shocks and more importantly, the birth of modern horror. Based loosely on the gruesome slayings of Ed Gein.
