Psychological Thriller Horror Mystery Film
It's our top rated Hitchcock film, and one of the top 10 All-Time Best Films in our ranking, where a woman on the run checks into the rundown Bates Motel, run by a young man apparently under the domination of his mother.
The “shower scene” alone is considered to be the epitome of suspense.
