Psycho III
Psycho III
Norman Bates is back again running his "quiet" little motel a month after the events in Psycho II. Norman meets three new people, one being a beautiful young nun with whom his budding relationship is beginning to make his "Mother" jealous. He also hires a young man in need of a job to take care of the motel. A snooping reporter is showing interest in Norman's case. What will these new friends do for Norman?

They sure get a lot of mileage out of the original Psycho shower scene, don’t they? While this one isn’t quite as much of a pleasant surprise as Psycho II, this third installment is still pretty good. This one feels a bit sleazier than the previous installments, with more sex, nudity and Jeff Fahey as a big-time scumbag. A couple good kills including an awesome toilet kill. (Not sure if it was #1 or #2 😛). Kind of wish there was a bit more ambiguity with regards to the killer in this, but I that’s probably a tall order for a third installment. I liked Perkins’ direction for the most part though. The infamous house looked really awesome in some shots and the final handheld shot (so to speak) of Norman was really great.
