Psycho DVD

[aud19]

So last night my GF and I decided to share the original Psycho with our 13 year old daughter, well my step-daughter. Sure initially she balked at the idea of watching a dumb, old movie and oh my god it's black and white! 8O All black and white movies are dumb!

But you should have seen her about 15 minutes in to it, and that was before any of the creepy stuff even starts! Sitting quietly, watching intently :B Then the creepy stuff starts and she holding her blanket a little tighter :lol: At the end of the movie she commented that it was a "creepy movie" but seemd to no longer think it was a dumb old black and white movie :T :lol:

It's nice when you can show the attention deficit generation how good some old stuff actually is and have them actually appreciate it

Yeah that was some kind of movie, wasn't it. Actually it was the beginning of all those so-called slasher flicks like Friday The 13th, Halloween, etc., etc. But none of them ever came close to Psycho in my opinion.

Hahahahaha, great story Jason! :rofl:

One very strange thing that Jazz and I both noticed was that Anthony Perkins (Norman Bates)

looks eerily like and even has some of the mannerisms as Will and Grace's Eric McCormack 8O


Or I guess it would be more correct to say Eric McCormack reminded us a lot of Anthony Perkins, at least his character in Psycho...

:lol:
