Psycho III (Previously Owned DVD)
Condition. Disc In Very Good Condition.
Anthony Perkins recreates his most famous role and makes his directorial debut in this second sequel to Alfred Hitchcock's legendary thriller, which picks up right where Psycho Il left off. Once again, the Bates Motel is the site of some nasty doings as the rehabilitated psychopath, Norman Bates (Perkins), attempts to help a disturbed young woman (Diana Scarwid) and a guitar-playing drifter while trying to divert a nosy reporter's suspicions away from mother.
According to The Time Out Film Guide, "Perkins gives another superb exhibition of controlled hysteria, with the fetching hint of a macabre wink lurking in the background." Equal parts suspense, terror, and black comedy worthy of the Master himself, this gory and shocking sequel was written by Charles Edward Pogue (The Fly), and co-stars Jeff Fahey.
