Psycho


“Not only Hitchcock’s greatest film: the most intelligent and disturbing horror film ever made.” —Peter Cowie

Credited with inventing the genre of the modern horror, Alfred Hitchcock’s PSYCHO features Anthony Perkins as the lonely motel keeper Norman Bates. Bates presides over an out-of-the-way motel under the domineering specter of his mother. Janet Leigh plays Marion Crane, a blonde on the run with stolen money who checks into the motel for the night.
