I agree, what would weaken Psycho today as a movie or any classic for that matter, are the subsequent thousands of movies that have built on them. What makes a movie a true timeless classic is that it defines its moment in history as well as being entertaining and artisitic at the same time. Psycho was and is what it is because of when it was made. Had it NOT been made over 5 decades ago then it would chill today's audiences nearly as much as it did back then, but if Marty pushed his dad out of the way of that moving car his parents never would have met and he'd never exist! Time travel is too dangerous.
