Psycho (1960) ... wtf?!?



Today, during my quest of searching for "THE MOVIE", i watched "Psycho" ; an american 1960 thriller directed by Alfred Hitchcock .
I Knew Hitchcock was a great filmmaker but i never realized how much .
I never felt as much frightened as i felt when i saw the scene of the murder of the detective, and what's weird is that when you watch it again you don't understand why you felt that way the first time, and that's what impressed me.
And i guess if you watched this movie , you'd certainly remember the shower scene , one of the most famous scene in cinema history...

Now after thinking about it, I guess that I know why the murder scenes were so intense: the soundtrack !! hearing all these violins, cellos ... screeching , it made the scene much more intense.
I never felt that scared since that scene from "Twin Peaks: fire walk with me" whith the freakin guy screaming and laura screaming back.... He still scares me even when i see his picture ...


Well, I'm not a fan of thrillers but this "Psycho" is a must-see !!
