Review by Siko Mike

Marion Crane is a trusted business woman and agrees to take her employer’s client’s $40,000 to the bank for him. After she leaves her office, she decides to leave town and use the cash all for herself. Marion begins to get paranoid since a cop is on to her and her employer spots her in her car. She heads down the interstate and buys a new car for her escape to her lover’s house. She mistakenly gets off the main road when it begins raining really hard, so she stops at the Bates Motel to get some rest and is greeted by the friendly co-owner of the motel named Norman Bates.

Norman invites her to have dinner with him and seems like a loner who is taking care of his sick mother. Later that night while taking a shower, Marion is brutally stabbed to death by Norman’s deranged mother. Marion’s sister Lila is worried that her sister hasn’t contacted her and seeks the help of a detective and her sister’s lover Sam. What they uncover is the most shocking evidence imaginable. (more…)
