Psycho

Psycholfred Hitchcock's horror masterpiece, as well as his most famous film. I will not discuss due to the plot, because I don't want to ruin the plot for anyone who has not seen it yet (though I doubt too many people will read this anyway). This is a film that is driven by its music, written by Bernard Herrman. Herrman's music gives the film a completey different feel; as I saw after watching a part with and without the music. Featuring stellar acting by little known actors, this film is a masterpiece. The one thingthat proves this film's greatness is the fact that 50 years after its release, it is still as creepy as it was originally. Anyone who has ever drawn a single breath on this Earth would be doing themselves a disservice if they did not view this film at least once.
