Yes. The movie that spawned all the Dawson's Creek/Party of Five slasher movies. The movie that has the actress that spawned Jamie Lee Curtis who was in other movies that also spawned all the Dawson's Creek/Party of Five slasher movies. Yes. Psycho.I'm ashamed to admit that I just recently watched 'Psycho' for the first time. I'm proud to admit that I soiled my undies. Well, they were my mom's undies but that's a different story. Or is it? A boy's best friend IS his mother.
Psycho is a twisted tale about murder, jealousy, and insanity that makes a lot of today's horrors look like The Care Bear's Movie. I'd tell you more about it, but I really don't want to take anything away. Every single twist and turn makes you brain go boom. It's Hitchcock for godsake... just watch it.
I will tell you about Anthony Perkins though. He gives an incredible portrayal of Norman Bates. I mean... I'd rather make out with Karl from 'Sling Blade' then ask Norman for the time of day. That dude is creepy. And Norman's mom? Forgetaboutit. You won't be taking a shower for weeks. Being that this IS a movie review WEBSITE, I guess that's no big change.So, if your sick of all these crappy TV to Movie star thrillers about stupid over contrived reasons to kill people, then stop going to the movies. Just go to the local rental store and pick up Psycho. Hell... there are even cleavage shots that outdo 'I Know What You Did Last Summer.'
