Psycho (1960) Monday, October 26, 5pm
Of the 53 feature length films Hitchcock directed in his five-decade career, Psycho is arguably his most famous–and influential–work. It revolutionized the horror movie genre while setting new levels of acceptability for violence and sexuality in American films. Hitchcock deftly used his experience working on his 1950s television series to create a low budget movie for less than $850,000 that would gross over $50 million worldwide on its initial release. 1 hr. 49min. Rated R
