Happy Halloween...Dana and Tom end their month of Alfred Hitchcock with his seminal horror film that arguably launched the modern horror genre, Psycho starring Janet Leigh, Anthony Perkins, John Gavin, and Vera Miles.

Plot Summary: Phoenix secretary Marion Crane (Janet Leigh), on the lam after stealing $40,000 from her employer in order to run away with her boyfriend, Sam Loomis (John Gavin), is overcome by exhaustion during a heavy rainstorm. Traveling on the back roads to avoid the police, she stops for the night at the ramshackle Bates Motel and meets the polite but highly strung proprietor Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins), a young man with a hobby in bird taxidermy and who seemingly has a difficult relationship with his mother. However, there is more going on at the Bates Motel than at first glance.
