Psycho (1960)



As you can see from above this is a review on the horror movie 'Psycho' which was made in 1960. I have uploaded a clip from Youtube which is the most famous scene from the movie, labelled the 'Shower Scene'. This links with the various results you find when typing into a search bar 'Psycho 1960'. The film was very unusual and I found it quite satire at times even though it wasn't supposed to be. Similar to many different horror movies, it was quite jumpy at times and I did feel myself on edge at various occasions. The fact that it was in black and white created suspense and I personally believe that this is what makes horrors even more scary. I was able to pick out the eight different characters in which refers to Propps theory. The character Marion Crane took on the role as the innocent girl and the psychopath Norman Bates was the villain. This was conspicuous throughout. Overall it was a good movie and a recommendation. The use of 'Psycho Strings' mad it even more scary.
