Screaming Queenz Ep 36 - PSYCHO

"We all go a little mad sometimes..."

After a brief spoiler-free review of The Void, we look at the quintessential slasher, Psycho. Janet Leigh and Anthony Perkins star in the Hitchock classic from 1960, where Marion Crane ups and leaves her dead end job and boring life with some stolen loot, hoping to marry her beau John Gavin. But on the way she just has to make one little stop at the Bates Motel. What could possibly go wrong?

An amazing film in every sense and the inspiration for hundreds of slasher movies that came after it, Psycho should be on everyone's list of horror faves. So if you haven't seen it - WATCH IT before you listen to this podcast. There will be spoilers.
