10/10 9.5/10 Psycho RHorrorMysteryThriller

In this now-iconic Alfred Hitchcock thriller, a secretary embezzles forty thousand dollars from her employer’s client, goes on the run, and checks into a remote motel. The place is run by a young man under the domination of his mother — and he soon turns out to be far more threatening than he appeared at first.

Psycho is one of if not the greatest horror movies ever made, or at the very least one of the most significant horror films in cinematic history. Often considered Alfred Hitchcock’s masterpiece, Psycho is a near-perfect psychological horror full of innovative twists, camera angles, and an iconic antagonist that has cemented him as an all-time great. Psycho is not always available on streaming services, so catching it this Halloween season on Netflix is a golden opportunity.
