I respect it for what it did for the horror genre but since it was way before my time and I have seen movies that have had a bigger impact on me I cant give it a 5.
The Original Slasher Film.Hitchcock in all of his genius.Classic!Anthony Perkins was amazing!Must See and a Must Own!If you don't like this than your not a true horror fan.
This Film stared out Great Horror Masterpice Thanks to A.H with terror, chills and supsen from the master, with a great stoy and actng by the whole cast what Hardcore Horror fan would'nt like film.
One of the Best Movies of all time. Anyone who hasn't seen Psycho should make it there next top priority. MASTERPIECE
And no BD review of this great film or it's sequels. Disgraceful.
By the way, "WE all go a little mad sometimes"
A great movie! I usually can't stand B&W horror, but this was a great movie. Has one of the most famous scenes in history, and one of the most unlikely killers ever.
This is most definitely Alfred Hitchcock's greatest masterpiece of a film. I've seen Psycho a few times and it never gets old to me. It is a true classic to say the very least!
Psycho is a well made and brilliant thriller. Instead of adding buckets of blood or excessive nudity, the kills are implied and are few and far between. It is a classic that is still remembered today. While it definitely started the slasher genre, looking at it now, modern day people call this experience boring. On the other hand, I find it a well crafted suspense flick.
I think everyone should know what Psycho is about, especially since Gus Van Sant created the remake. Psycho is about a killer that is out looking for new victims to kill. Although Norman Bates is a huge suspect since he was there at the scene? Was it him?
Alfred Hitchcock did an amazing job with the movie. Giving the characters enough screen time, while building up the suspense. While the film is brilliant, it was highly predictable, in my mind, who the "Psycho" was. Maybe that was Alfred's intension? I don't know, but for a movie about a killer, that has a hidden identity, it can't be Alfred's intention.
Overall Psycho is a smart and brilliantly crafted movie that preceded the slasher genre.
The granddaddy of the slasher genre. Hitchcock rarely disappointed, and PSYCHO was no exception. Anthony Perkins is wonderfully ghoulish as Norman Bates. The shower scene is still brutal and understandably inspiring. The sequels that followed can't even stand in the same time-zone with this one. A must-see for every horror fan.
incredible and still terrifying. really cool end line and ending.

A true classic horror film that can't be beat. Hithcocks best! The black & white tone just makes it all the more better and freakier! Defenitly shows you what losing your mind can do to you!
One of the best from the "Master of Suspense". I really wish they'd one day release a color-version, with a little tweak of the visuals too. Anthony Perkins was flawless. Janet Leigh was terrific as Marion Crane. She was a srikingly beautiful woman. One of the greatest death scenes in all of horror. A truly great film !!!

I had to watch it as Ive heard many people state this was one of the original slasher pics, and a classic horror movie. I thought the camera work was great. Story was great, Hitchcock created such a spooky place, and a terrifying caracter. Not for once did i think that was the killer. The ending is so so creepy. This indeed is a classic, and I want to watch Birds now.
