Psycho a 1960 horror film was directed by Alfred Hitchcock starring Anthony Perkins as Norman Bates and Vera Miles as Lila Crane. We give it a 4 outa 5 because it was a good thriller horror film, very good plot, good storyline, great acting. On the not so bright side it over uses certain aspects such as music wich in some scenes took away drama by adding it. Also some scenes did have poor acting.
The plot of the movie goes like this. It starts with Marion Crane and her boyfriend geting done in a hotel room Marion wants to get married but her boyfriend don't have the cash to so he says no then they go to work. at work marion is presented with $40,000 dollars to put in a safe deposit box. instead of the safe deposit box she decides to run with it then give it to her boyfriend so they can get married. on the way there she gets checked by a cop gets a new car and stops at a mystirious hotel called the bates motel. there she meets a fellow named norman bates and after a chat with him she decides to take a shower and take the money back in the morning. While in the shower Norman's mom appears and stabs her to death and leaves. norman comes upon this "mishap" and cleans it up for his mom. After awhile people start looking for her and the money a private investigator comes questions Norman asks to see his mom and he says she is ill and cant speak he goes back calls Marion's sister and boyfriend and suspects she knows somthing so he goes back. He's goes to the house walks up the stairs to an opening door he gets to the top and the mom comes from the side and stabs him. norman sees this and cleans it up again.
