Let's give Camilla a round of applause for surviving Psycho (1960). 👏👏 Happy Wednesday. This is my all-time favorite Alfred Hitchcock movie, alongside Vertigo (1958), that I would watch from start to finish. I own the movie on a new remastered Blu-ray that also includes an uncut version that originally played in theaters back in 1960. I've always gone back to that version because it adds back a shot from the shower undressing scene, a lingering close up of bloody hands, and additional thrusts of the knife for the killing of Arbogast inside the house. The movie itself was edited for content in 1968 when the MPA ratings system was first established (the movie initially went in without a rating in 1960 due to no such system existing yet) to obtain an R rating.

Speaking of Alfred Hitchcock, I also suggest Saboteur (1942), Shadow of a Doubt (1943), Rope (1948), Strangers on a Train (1951), Rear Window (1954), To Catch a Thief (1955), The Trouble With Harry (1955), The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956), Vertigo (1958), North By Northwest (1959), The Birds (1963), Marnie (1964), Torn Curtain (1966), Topaz (1969), Frenzy (1972), and Family Plot (1976). #MoreAlfredHitchcockForCamillaAlmond

To save you a deep dive and hopefully a bit of time, the Hitchcock camera shots you are describing in the outro are most closely associated with Vertigo. I would start there, if that's where your brain is headed. Following that one with North by Northwest and Rear Window are your best jumping off points for such a huge catalog of film. Also- all of those are in color, if that is holding you back. The man has 69 directing credits, and most of them are still available in 2025. That speaks volumes to the influence on 20th century film. My favorite Hitchcock film is actually his first American film, Rebecca (1940). It won best picture, and remains one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen, despite the lack of color.

My favorite part of this film is the way Hitchcock ratchets up paranoia in the first third or so. Fantastic film.

BTW, the shower scene, which comprised of 78 camera setups for a total of 52 shots, was filmed in one week. "Mother"'s knife never pierced Janet Leigh and the blood that went down the drain was Hershey's chocolate syrup. The REAL slasher was John L. Russell's cinematography and George Tomasini's editing.

Thank you for the reaction, Camilla. Congrats on nailing the twist only half-way through the movie! Janet Leigh, who played the doomed Marion in this film, had a daughter who was also an actress: Jamie Lee Curtis, who was the lead in the previous film you saw, Halloween. Hitchcock had a tendency to make cameos in his films. About 6 minutes into "Psycho" he appears outside the window of Marion's office as she walks in. He has his back to the camera and is wearing a cowboy hat.

oh my gosh I'll have to look out for Hitchcock when I edit this one!

Yeah, Psycho definitely influenced the whole split-personality twist in media that stuff like Mr. Robot and Split borrowed. It's unfortunate for the older films though because they kinda lose a little of their punch and surprise (but every generation of films does this to the ones previous). If you wanted to avoid that and keep things chronological to get a general sense of the trajectory, Psycho and Night of the Living Dead were probably the two most influential proto-slashers. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Black Christmas are considered first two actual slashers. After that, Halloween crystalized the genre and Friday the 13th was the first to be kind of formulaic about it and start the trend of frequent sequels (but obviously you saw those last two). The score for this film was truly unique for its time and has had many imitators ever since (Friday the 13th is basically the same kind of score, but with a full orchestra instead of just strings). Brian DePalma carried the torch of Hitchcock horror and suspense down to the look and score (just mostly in the '70s though). I'd really suggest checking out his films, "Carrie" and "Sisters." Carrie is his most popular (and the first Stephen King novel to ever be adapted to film) while Sisters is the much weirder, more Hitchcock-inspired of the two. But yeah, there's actually a lot of old black and white cinema that's not-boring AND beautiful.
