What can I say that the movie cannot tell you better. This is a chiller classic and can give you goosebumps to this day.

UK Blu-Ray is version awesome!Aug 30, 2010
I recently ordered this region free Psycho Blu-Ray from Amazon UK where it was already released. I was extremely pleased with the audio/video quality. [...] has a review on their site about this release. I'm thinking this will be the same product once released here in the US.

A Hitchcock ClassicAug 04, 2010
"Psycho" is one of the oldest most successful horror films of all-time. "Psycho" was made in an era where horror films focused on the plot rather the gore. Director Alfred Hitchcock created and turned "Psycho" into a classic hit.
"Psycho" is about Marion Crane (Janet Leigh) a business worker, who is asked by her boss to take a large sum of money and deposit it into the bank. Instead of following orders, Marion decides to keep the money for herself and get out of town. After driving for a long time, she decides to stop at the bates motel for the night. She meets the owner of the hotel Norman Bates. While showering, Bates's mother kills Marion.
After not hearing or seeing Marion, her sister and boyfriend decided to go investigate the bates motel.
"Psycho" is a classic film that will be remembered for decades to come.

Black and WhiteJul 25, 2010
Psycho wouldn't be what it is without its cast or director. I'm not saying anything anyone doesn't already know. The pacing and lighting of this movie are part of the whole. Psycho is a tattoo on the landscape of the mind. Vera Miles spends just enough time in Norman's room to leave us wanting more. The editing is superb, and makes this movie.

Wins the argument for watching Hollywood movies in chronological order.Jul 08, 2010
This movie is okay for older children and I wouldn't show it AFTER crime dramas and movies such as Silence of the Lamb. One must start at the beginning. Anthony Perkins gangly beauty was never used to its best moneymaking effect in Hollywood. He always left the audience wanting more.
