How this movie was not horror movie at all, Its more of comedy movie and some of some stuff that this movie come up with were just way over the top and not funny.

I did laugh in some place in the movie, I thought, I did find the Rubber monster really funny, no scary at all,

I think I may have enjoyed this more when Teen and as adult you would find this really silly!

I thought plot was ok-ish and the acting was really good from the cast!

I give 5 out of 10
Another movie I have a soft spot for.... Steve Miner (F13II, Warlock, The Wonder Years... what more do you want?) does a great job with a really cool off beat comedy with some dark scenes, surreal scenes, dumbass scenes. Its proper good fun and a really creative blend of genres that kinda goes wrong now and then but it all comes together to make for a really fun flick. Probably watched this when I was like 10 and thought it was amazing, but even putting nostalgia to one side, its still on that is well worth a watch.

I saw these two movies on the weekend

Psycho (1960)

I have not seen this movie in full for very long time,

I would of thought that movie would feel a bit dated now , t didn't at all,

I never thought of it before but this movie felt like it's was way before it time.

The movie flowed really well there was slow parts in the movie, which were not boring at all and there was great atmosphere in this movie.

Some scenes in this movie were very creepy at times and the acting playing Norma bates was outstanding playing Creepy Psycho.

This movie had a very good twist in the movie that may shock people if they already didn't know about it.

Who can forget about that famous shower scene, which still kinda of work after all these years and I thought the whole movie was really great.

The only bad thing that I can say about this movie is that one scene did look little out dated then the other parts of the movie , I am talking about the Stairs death dose look little silly today.

Also The acting in this movie was great from the whole cast and Alfred Hitchcock did an outstanding job on this movie.
9 out of 10

Psycho II (1983)
Normally you think a sequel after so long, would be really bad idea, (Well in these day) Back in 80'S with whole slasher movies come out all over the place.

It was Surprisingly really good sequel to the first movie ,

Normal bates is out and back as sane at the very moment, some people are happy at the moment.

Normal bates try have normal life but soon is Haunted by the past again.

I thought this movie was really good, I found the movie flowed really well and there were some good shock moment in this movie.

I loved all the twist and turns in this movie, They worked really well with the rest of the movie.

However this didn't have the same impact as the first movie, it had some tense moment in this movie but not as creepy as the first movie and Norman bates well didn't seem that Creepy compared to the first movie.

I Love the way the movie ended thought it was great way to end this movie,

The acting again was outstanding from the whole cast and I really enjoyed this sequel

Psycho III (1986)

Not really sure what to make of this one, I didn't think was as good as the first two movies in this series.

I loved the way the movie started as really grabs you in straight way and then we seen Normal Bates back in Hotel again,

It's felt it more of re-harsh of first movie in some parts of the movie, with 80's Vibe to it instead.

There were some really shocking moment. that didn't see coming in this movie, which I really liked the out come of them.

I don't why but I felt sorry for Norman in this movie, as the past get coming back to haunt him and Finally came though in the end.

Some of the deaths in this movie were really bloody at times and again , which really annoys him, those silly stairs death, Who falls down the stairs liked that!

I did like the how the movie ended as he was finally free but I didn't really under stand the last sceneSpoiler: (His in the police car and then he saying he finally free and then takes the dead Hand out of his pocket)

I thought acting in this movie was very good from the whole cast

I still think was very decent sequel but not as good as the other movies.

So I going give this movie 5/6 out of 10

Psycho IV: The Beginning (1990)

I really enjoyed watching this movie, I found this movie Better then the 3rd movie,

I love the way to movie flowed, Bit of sequel and a prequel in a way, the movie grab me in and I didn't not if looks away from screen once.

Some of stuff in those flashback were really shocking, He had a really bad Mother and stepfather of Hell.

The kills in this movie were not as gore as the one before due being a TV movie.

So we know why we became the person his was, I found ending really good as the story did have a good ending.

8 out of 10

This as been a great series, I was going to watch Bates Motel (1987) but trailer as really put it's off and I have heard nothing but bad comment about movie.

The imagery certainly sent me into an altered state - which might mean that I hallucinated the ending.
Hammerfan was it you who recommended Leviathan (1989)? That was brilliant a lot better than I expected though the ending was a bit too cheesy.
