SYNOPSIS:  Phoenix secretary Marion Crane (Janet Leigh), on the lam after stealing $40,000 from her employer in order to run away with her boyfriend, Sam Loomis (John Gavin), is overcome by exhaustion during a heavy rainstorm. Traveling on the back roads to avoid the police, she stops for the night at the ramshackle Bates Motel and meets the polite but highly-strung proprietor Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins), a young man with an interest in taxidermy and a difficult relationship with his mother. (Rotten Tomatoes)

MY RATING: (★★★★★) I couldn’t complete this movie list without this classic 1960s version of Psycho. It’s also on AFI’s First 100 list of movies.  This is definitely one for your horror movie collection and must see classic movie. 

 

With that said … Happy Viewing, and enjoy the movie!
