Another of hitchcocks greatest we have psycho costing $806,947 and made $50,000,000 worldwide which was last checked in january 2004 the film takes place in a motel in the middle no-where a woman steels $40,000 off of her employers and hides out in the motel. the man (norman bates) that owns the motel has a double personality of himself and his mother that died long ago. his mother want him to love only her and if he ends up liking another girl she will become jealous the mans double personality will kick in he will dress up as his mother and then kill the woman.

psycho was one of the first ever films to use fast pacing frequent action in the way it was used after the viewers came out of the cinema they were asked hat they saw i the film at the shower scene and almost every single view said that the knife pierced the skin when it actually never did.
the film created some powerful scenes and those were the scene when the young woman was it the shower the music kicked in the door opened the shower curtain moved and the knife struck i didn't say it hit because it diddnt. the other powerful things that gave you a thrill was when you knew the attack was about to start from the music playing you knew it was coming but you didn't know where from this created suspense and tension making this film fit perfect in the thriller and overall for a film from the mid nineties i highly recommend it.
