Psycho 4K 1960 UNCUT

This film left an indelible impression on me.

Psycho combines a mixture of different genres, such as: a tense thriller, a strong detective, there are notes of a horror movie and you can even follow the small touches of a love drama. Thanks to its excellent direction, this film balances very well in this genre whirlwind, thereby keeping the viewer in maximum tension.

"Hitchcock is a master of suspense." It is impossible to argue with this. The director knows how to masterfully manipulate the audience's emotions as he pleases, filming from the person of the maniac, then from the point of view of the victim he is killing. Just what is the scene in the shower, the suspense of which is still built on the way to the motel, on the road, at the wheel. But what about the fate of Detective Arbogast, who cautiously peers into the Bates mansion? The viewer perfectly understands what awaits the hero, but, nevertheless, the atmosphere is saturated with danger. Hitchcock, even in such a seemingly predictable scene, was able to make the viewer worry and worry about the hero.

The beautiful music of the film composer Bernard Hermann adds color. He skillfully knows how to control sound and evoke a storm of emotions in the viewer, which perfectly complements the suspense built by Hitchcock.

Psycho has become a school for many horror and thriller filmmakers. Almost all of the visual and staging techniques invented by Hitchcock in this film were later used in every "horror - killer" story and today entered the pantheon of the most frequently replicated cliches.

The film is definitely recommended for watching.
