"I can’t overrate the radical beauty and revolutionary vision of these portraits. He was the first to focus on the psycho-idolatrous fans in the crowds at premieres, instead of the celebrities. Weegee the man, in words and image, is like a ham-handed rube and a carnival barker; it’s like watching an oaf sit down to play a perfect, mordant Bach chorale. What can I say?"

Watched today thought it was a bit on the silly and over the top plot parents turning on their children especially the one scene at the school where all the parents go psycho on their kids on school grounds. of course with nic cage doing his usual over the top acting it’s not bad little worth a rewatch

Watched for a Friday the 13th ripoff it wasn't up to the standards of slasher movies and I've seen lots especially from the 80s and this one just didn't do it for me from the cast yes that's daryl hannah who basically doesn't do much till near the end of the movie when she's attacked by the psycho not one of my favourite slashers

Alex and JJ are back with a very "Silence of the Lambs" meet "Psycho" type villian. This was an enjoyable macabre read. I know kinda an oxymoron but if you like crime novels you will love the Alex Hope series. The characters are well done and the plot flows. Yes, there is romance but I feel it is almost secondary to the crime solving but no less enjoyable.

Never looked at business cards the same again.
American Psycho is one of the best Psychological Thrillers, Black Comedies, and Horror movies to date. Christian Bale plays Patrick Bateman so well that even though he is a psychopath you just can't help but like the guy even though you kind of want to punch him in the face at the same time.

Definitely, add this to your need to watch list.

Kim Newman recommended Sisters (1973) in Movies (curated)

 
Sisters (1973)
Sisters (1973)
1973 | Crime, Horror, Thriller

"Brian DePalma’s breakthrough thriller pays homage to several Hitchcock classics—Rear Window and Psycho, mostly—in a genuinely innovative manner, with jittery, counter-culture-ish New York wiseass humor rather than Hitch’s British wryness, an interesting set of mirror image antagonists in peculiar twins played by Margot Kidder (with a seductively odd French-Canadian accent), and nosy reporter Jennifer Salt. It has graphic shocks but also stretches of hallucinatory strangeness."

True psychological mystery, as in, you may qualify for a psych degree after reading this. . I didn't figure anything out at all. Just when I thought I had, something changed it. The power of the mind is incredible. I couldn't put this one down once I really got into it. I did get a little confused by some of the twists and psycho babble, but it all worked itself out in the end.

Right 1st of the way this movie ends will probably leave you Fuming!
I loved this as there is nothing like a woman scourned although turns out really she is a plain sociopath!
It is a long film and i'm sure there could have been bits cut etc etc, however it definitely is WORTH a watch thoroughly enjoyed it however left with a massive rage at the ending!
