Brilliant, the mother of all horror films

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2007)

Some people say that this the best film ever, well I agree this was good and the plot was so good it left me guessing all the way through but probably the only bad thing about it is that its one of those films where you watch it once and thats it because you already know whats going to happen and it kind of spoils the whole film when you watch it again. What really surprised me was that the blood from the notorious 'shower scene' was actually chocolate syrup! For me after 'North By Northwest' this was Hitchcock's best piece of work. Every movie has a bit where it probably would never happen and Psychos is the death where the detective gets stabbed at the top of the stairs and manages to slide all of the way down them again BACKWARDS! But other than that I say well done to the great Alfred Hitchcock
