Hey Matt this is my horrifying moment
ruclips.net/video/hmqzNkGSk_Q/видео.html
Can I join is there limitations stopping me from being added to the playlist
It’s been a day I’m sorry I’m not patient
Hey Matt, so I know it’s been about a week, but I hope I’m not too late to join, but here is my one horrifying moment video:ruclips.net/video/owA6dJH__jQ/видео.html
The line with the most foreshadowing about Norman's mother being just a corpse is "She's as harmless as one of those stuffed birds." Because Norman stuffed her body with his taxidermy skills just like the birds.
Yep, it's super creepy in retrospect!
I always remember when Norman was talking about his hobbies to Marion
"I like to stuff birds"
Which is also British slang for "I like to f*** women"
Something that Hitchcock would have no doubt been well aware of.
@@cha5 Me too since I'm British. The bit where Norman goes "I couldn't do that. Who'd look after her? She'd be alone up there, the fire would go out. It'd be cold and damp like a grave" since Norman stole Norma's body from her grave and took it back to the house.
That, and he was looking at Marion through a peep hole so, it's obvious that he's crazy.
Hey thanks for the video essay idea now i can spend the day getting stoned and watching all these great video essays
This comment speaks to me on a spiritual level...
Ya when I’m high and watch these videos I start to think I’m so smart. I’m like, “ya my high school English teacher would be proud of all these deep connections.”
I need to re-up.
Dude weed lmao
Rob Ager did an analysis on the Psycho trailer and its pretty good. Hitch gives you so many hints about the twist. Plus I love how Psycho 2 makes Norman sane while everyone the rest is insane. And it works.
Nah, Psycho 2 wasn't for me. Too predictable unlike the 1st. And without the involement of Hitchcock, it ain't the same.
@@osmanyousif7849 Thats fine. Yeah he wasn't involved but his team were there and they did a good job.
The detective getting killed got to me because it was so unexpected...and that crazy POV is just unsettling and hasnt really been used since
It has. By Gus Van Sant. in 1998.
(Stifles laughter).
The light swaying inside of and highlighting the cracked dried out empty eye cavities has always made my skin crawl and tingle then the music starts playing in my mind and it's just a full body shiver.
Perhaps my favorite horror movie of all time. I love the score, the acting, the cinematography. It’s a bit dated, sure, yet somehow the dialogue and story are so captivating that I still believe it holds up very well. Anthony Perkins kills it as Norman Bates. He’s able to make you sympathize with the character yet also keeps you on your toes as his little hints of insanity slips out. And the twist is brilliant. I always love looking back and seeing the foreshadowings and clues all building up to the grand reveal at the end. I consider Psycho an absolute masterpiece and a must-watch film for any fan of cinema.
"It's sad when a mother has to speak the words that condemn her own son, but I couldn't allow them to believe that I would commit murder. They'll put him away now as I should have years ago. He was always bad, and in the end he intended to tell them I killed those girls, and that man, as if I could do anything, except just sit and stare, like one of his stuffed birds. Oh, they know I can't even move a finger and I won't. I'll just sit here and be quiet just in case they do.... suspect me. They're probably watching me. Well, let them. Let them see what kind of a person I am. I'm not even going to swat that fly. I hope they are watching. They'll see. They'll see and they'll know, and they'll say, "Why, she wouldn't even harm a fly." 💀
Well done Matt!
I don't know what it is but older horror films have always creeped me out.
The first proper film about split personality. Although the *'mother fixation'* angle for me was first touched upon in another classic film but different genre, *"White Heat"* played by a brilliantly pyschotic James Cagney. Hitchcock's classic is a influential groundbreaker.
This is so good, Matt. I watched PSYCHO with a friend a few days ago after watching this video and it’s so interesting how the movie shifts multiple times but doesn’t feel jarring.
Thanks, Diego! Yeah I love how it just keeps messing with you in its construction. So crazy.
What I like about this movie is that the characters aren’t sympathetic. That should be left up to the audience. If someone just killed my family member, I sure as hell wouldn’t be sympathetic.
I absolutely love Psycho, one of my all-time favorite horror movies! Although the shower scene receives the bulk of the attention, and rightfully so, the reveal of Norman as Mother was, for me, the most frightening scene in the movie. Norman's crazy, wide eyes during that moment is still terrifying. Anthony Perkins slayed this role, he was perfect!
I cannot watch Psycho alone. That shower scene... Good Lord!
Great video, I know this is one of the most acclaimed horror films of all time but I feel like it’s recognition is misplaced by many. You did a marvelous job highlighting what works about Psycho and Hitchcock’s filmmaking.
Love me some Hitchock but now the great Matt Draper is covering him? My gawd!
I love Psycho; timeless soundtrack and great writing.
I absolutely love Psycho. One of my favorite movies of all time. This one scene is probably the most iconic scene next to the shower scene for me. You did a fantastic job with this Matt. P.S I listened to your commentary on evil dead you did with your wife and I really enjoyed it.
Thanks! Glad you liked it, we had a ton of fun recording that.
One Horrifying Moment that i've Experience is the Live Gunshot in Joker (2019).
While Rear Window is my favorite Hitchcock movie, Psycho remains a classic. It showcases a lot of suspense and horror Hitchcock is famous for. Great series of Halloween videos this month Matt and I’ll be checking out more videos in this playlist.
Definitely check it out! Lots of great videos in there. I think Rear Window is my favorite, too, but Psycho is just so interesting.
Such an iconic film, one that has cast a long shadow over horror cinema ever since. Another subversive masterstroke was in the casting of Tony Perkins as Norman, at the time he was known for his romantic/boy next door roles, which Psycho completely upended, forcing him to make movies in Europe. He would famously return to the role for the sequels in the 1980s. Incidentally, check out Peeping Tom, released around the same time by Powell, once vilified but now regarded as a classic - arguably the British answer to Psycho.
It's truly understood why this film is so widely admired. It's truly one of a kind!!!
damn i got vision glitches after that intro
Spooky gang! I love that you’ve set this up Matt. I just got from Browntable’s video and I’m digging this series so far. Haven’t seen this gem, and with how iconic it is even after 60 years, I still kick myself for it to this day. Trying to rent it this Saturday
Thanks for adding my video matt
The moment Anthony Perkins steps in with those bugged eyes dressed in that outfit AND that knife!
Jesus Christ! It fucking terrified me!!
Loved this so much! The deep dive into the history and impact of the film was fascinating, and of course the mother reveal twist is iconic. Now I really just want to rewatch "Psycho" ))
Time to binge watch this. I love how people make these playlists of stuff usually by people who's vids I watched.
Thanks Matt!
Amazing video dude
I understand spoiler alerts, but good movies, novels and TV shows stand up to spoilers and rewatches. There are a few exceptions where a surprise twist is so good that you can look back on the build up and say wow that was worth the surprise. But the exceptions prove the rule, and and even then rewatching shouldn't reduce the enjoyment much.
Amazing work Matt 🖤🖤🖤
I LOVE your timing!!!!
The music MAKES this excellent film
What an absolutely excellent analysis of a great movie which just makes me appreciate the movie even more. Nicely done.
How can I join?
Just gotta let me know about your video once you've made it.
@@MattDraper can I link it to this video and is there a date I have to do it before
Make more like these
There’s already one marvellous scene and one x cellent scene
@@National7575 thnx
Psycho is quite possibly the most influential film ever made. Without it, there would be no Bonnie and Clyde to give full creative freedom to directors and kick off the New Hollywood Era, no Halloween to keep Psycho's type of horror relevant, so on and so forth. If it weren't for Psycho, American cinema wouldn't be what it is today, and creative experimentation would be limited to foreign films only
Love Psycho!
WOAH WOAH WOAH WHERE IS THIS 16x9 COPY?
If Psycho was remade again and they actually did something different unlike the 1998 remake they could have Norma actually be alive and the killer.
Hey, I was wondering how to join this, cuz I've wanted to do one of these ever since one marvelous scene, but couldn't.
Yes, absolutely!
@@MattDraper Cool. So, do I send you the link here or somewhere else? Here it is anyways: ruclips.net/video/bHRuIBgB1tM/видео.html
you ever notice in the scene where Merion is thinking about her boss she robs, *she looks into the camera AND SMILES like norman does at the of end of the film?* just after the shot at the 8:36 in this video.
And as norman's mother's narration ends the film, the last shot goes from him to merion's car being pulled from the swamp? Women fooling the patriarchy. Hence why Merion commands the 1st half of the film, she passes the torch to Norman- the film even opens on merion not eating her sandwich in a bedroom, whereas when she meets norman, she goes from eating sandwiches alone in her bedroom to eating with norman in the birds of prey room.
As for Thrillers vs Suspense vs Horror, I submit:
Thrillers make you breathe faster - maybe faster editing
Suspense make you hold your breath - maybe longer takes
Horror is to Disturb - maybe questioning societal norms or disturbing (not disgusting) imagery
I know it has nothing to do with the video, but could you please make a playlist with just your videos about Batman??
I'm 97% sure that Matt must be a beautiful person. His videos are all the proof I need
Can I join this please? Also, can it be from a film/show that isn’t horror, but has a horror scene?
Yes, that's totally fine
@@MattDraper I’ve made the video, it’s Georgie’s death from IT, here’s the link :)

@@MattDraper can I join and how
Heh. The Hole in Things.
There are terrible exposition scenes in a number of Hitchcock films but each has a function - in North by Nortwest hitchcock maks absolutely sure audiences know Caplan doesn't exist. The exposition in The Birds(in the cafe scene) outlines the wider threat, the sheer number of birds but this is a bit of misdirection as the 'real' explaination lies in the film's sub text. In Psycho the explaination for Bates's motives can only be delivered at the end or the shock revelation in the celler would be undermind
Killer Diller
I'd like to see what you have to say about "US"
Nando v movies is sure as shit mad he didnt copyright the movie analysis youtuber colboration idea

Can my video be added to the playlist

Turtle,,
Have you seen Psycho 2? People seem to dismiss it but I think it's just as good as the original
Only bits and pieces, but I want to watch it because I hear good things.
@@MattDraper Totally should
Good movie, very anti-trans.
Algorithm away!
