Hitchock's Masterpiece

Rating: Null/10 (6 May 2003)

This was the first really terrifying movie that audiences were ever to witness. Directed by perhaps the greatest of all time in Alfred Hitchcock, Psycho displays the first psychotic killer in film. Very few have had the same impact as Norman Bates when you think there is Freddy Krueger, Jason, Dr Hannibal Lecter and of course the killers from the Scream movies. I think it is only Lecter that matches up to Norman Bates. To the violence driven teenagers of today, "Psycho" is a film that they probably will not respect or fully understand, but for those who are willing to try this a film that you MUST see. This is the FIRST movie to terrify viewers and the final scene will stay with you for some time.
