Psycho Watch Party
Hours
Location
Deemed as the first ever slasher movie, the low budget black and white film shot by a television crew was highly acclaimed and often referred to as one of Hitchcock’s greatest masterpieces.
The story follows first time thief Marion Crane (Janet Leigh) who winds up at the Bates Motel hiding away from the police hot on her tail. There, she meets the quiet yet somewhat odd Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins), who lives with his controlling mother in the Gothic house on the hill. Little does Marion know that the encounter leads to her untimely death and sparks Norman off on a path of deadly destruction.
