Repost: Psycho (October 1st and 2nd at the Cedar Lee Theatre)

[PSYCHO screens Saturday October 1st at 9:30pm and 11:59 pm, and Sunday October 2nd at 7:00pm at the Cedar Lee Theatre.]

Review by Bob Ignizio

Alfred Hitchcock's PSYCHO has become such a part of the cultural consciousness that it's hard to imagine anyone today seeing the film in a spoiler-free environment. PSYCHO's key moments and iconic imagery show up on so many clip shows and have been parodied so often that everyone knows what happens when Marion Crane (Janet Leigh) stops to spend the night at the little hotel run by Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins) even if they've never seen the film itself. That it's still a movie well worth watching even without the element of surprise is a real testament to just how good it is.
