Juliet Carina is a singer-songwriter from Brooklyn, New York. Not too long ago, she released a music video for her “Psycho but Ya Love It” single.

“This collaboration was the brainchild of Cindy Valentine. But while in the studio working with her, I kept whispering something that sounded like ‘Psycho’ and we were laughing at how crazy we both are when we work together that we thought why not. Niko the kid, came next and while in LA with him, the laughs kept coming and that’s when Cindy decided we needed an Indian chant. So, she jumped on the mic and was possessed by a past life. For the bridge, I channeled my nasty alter ego and was petrified but encouraged to go for it.” – Juliet Carina

‘Psycho but Ya Love It’ contains a relatable storyline, pleasing vocals, and lush instrumentation flavored with a commercial-pop aroma.

“I had so much fun with this project that I really hope people love it as much as I do!” – Juliet Carina

Juliet Carina is from a diverse background. Her mother is of Italian descent and her father is Chinese.

With that dynamic combo, you can’t help but see that Juliet’s look is unique with the best of both worlds. But above all, she has a lot of talent and ambition.

Very entertaining "psycho(s)" film. Good acting and cinematography. A very dark storyline that keeps you guessing up to the end. Not big budget but great performances in this British tale of cunningly evil people. A good add to any Halloween movie list. Worth a watch!

"I love early Brian De Palma thrillers, and this is one of the best. Margot Kidder and Jennifer Salt are great. What Psycho did for taking a shower this movie did for giving a birthday cake to your girlfriend. And where Charles Durning’s character ends up is hilarious."

Ah Psycho, the granddaddy of slashers and a film that I find somehow modern and dated at the same time.
Psycho is a slow burn, at the beginning even the dialogue is sparse as the film builds up to the confrontations with Norman Bates (argued by most as the first modern slasher) and this is part of what makes it dated (and modern), the lack of action and the main character driving around gives Psycho the feel of something that Tarantino might make but it lacks 'something' . It's hard to explain but, by todays standards, parts of Psycho are a bit bland, not necessarily boring but bland. The best example I can think would be the scenes in the car, Psycho has just one character in the car who is imagining what others are saying about her and lots of silence which are filled with dramatic music, where as something like Pulp Fiction you get two characters who are just talking, the music seems to take you out of the situation because, in a modern film it would just be in the background.
As the film progresses we start to pick up on some of the slasher tropes, Norman is strange, again we can't quite explain why but that is sometimes the same in a modern film, we see him spy, once, on Marion and, in a more modern film this would probably be stretched out a bit more.
The kills aren't actually as graphic as most modern day slashers but this doesn't matter as Hitchcock has a talent for making the viewer see what he wants and not just what is happening.
The character of Norman is quite interesting but a lot of 'fleshing out' is just told to the viewer in exposition near the end, however you can see how Norman/Mother could easily be an inspiration for the Jason/Pamela dynamic in the first 'Friday 13th'

Psycho has a lot to answer for, sighted by many as the first modern 'Slasher' movie it caused an uproar for other reasons, the first time a toilet was seen flushing on screen, the first time a 'Leading Lady' was killed off halfway through the film (still a slight oddity now as we normally have one 'final girl') and the fact that the stolen money is just thrown away when it is no longer needed to push the plot along. It is these firsts that help to make the film feel dated, we are used to more graphic kills, toilets are almost irrelevant and there is normally more nudity/sex in a modern slasher.

Apart from being a little dated Psycho is a pretty good and entertain film which has put some thought into it's story and characters
