So I watched the horror film Psycho a few nights ago. It follows the story of a man called Norman Bates, who is, well, a psychopath.
He has a mental disorder, where he has two personalities. He is himself, and he is also his mother.
Whenever he felt attraction to a person, the mother side of him was released, and she murdered that person.
The movie starts with a woman stealing 40 thousand dollars and running away. However, it’s rainy, and not safe driving conditions, so she decides to stop for the night at the Bates Motel.
She meets Norman, who seems like a pretty nice man, until shes taking a shower and Norman (dressed as a woman) comes and murders her.
The rest of the movie is trying to figure out where the woman went, and eventually the detective and her boyfriend stumble upon the Bates Motel.
They believe the mother (who they saw in the upstairs window) knows something about the whereabouts of the woman that died, but Norman refuses, and says they can’t go talk with her.
The detective tries anyways, and is murdered by Bates.
Later on, the boyfriend and the woman’s sister come to the Bates Motel to snoop around to find clues about wether or not Bates knew about the money (they thought he killed the woman for the 40 thousand)
But instead they discover Bates’s mothers corpse locked in a fruit cellar, and it is revealed to everyone that the killer was Bates dressed as a woman.
Overall, the movie was good, but I wouldn’t really call it scary
