Psycho II is better than Psycho
Christopher Lucas
Why isn't this more widely acknowledged?
It's a superior film in every way.

I like how Vera Miles pronounces homicidal. HO-mo-SI-Doll.

Meg Tilly could act. Here is the scene where she was harassed at the diner.

Our society could use more frank conversations like those in R2.

Meg recently did a watch party of Psycho II on her YouTube page. It was great. Filming it wasn’t the best experience for her, but she has a good time recalling the scenes.

Speaking of psychos, why are you talking to yourself?

From the trailer I can see they utilized more parts of the creepy house - a character in itself.
I don’t remember seeing this.
Thanks OP!

Major issue with Psycho 2 = NO Hitchcock

How's the shot by shot remake by Soderbergh. Anyone seen it?

R12 The biggest waste of film I have ever seen. Totally pointless. It wasn’t even a vanity project.

R1. She went to the BTK school of elocution.

P2 was written by Tom Holland (Fright Night, Child's Play).

Vera Miles was about 53 when she filmed this. This was back when 50 something actresses looked like they were in their 70s. Now, it's the opposite.

Wrong. Psycho is quite the masterpiece. The sequels are all dogs.

Vera Miles turns 93 in a couple of months. She did one Fantasy Island; two Psychos; three Love Boats; three Murder She Wrotes; and four Hotels.

American Psycho 2 is the real masterpiece.

Dayum OP. A comment so blasphemous it got you redlined.

It's not acknowledged because it's not true.

They bring it up in one of the Scream movies. A film geek says Psycho 2 and the other one says underrated.

PSYCHO 2 is a terrific movie. While I wouldn't go as far as the OP or Quentin Tarantino (if memory serves) in prizing it above the original, I'd say that it's probably the boldest attempt at a sequel that actually succeeds.

I prefer the sequel to the original. It still holds up & gives the viewer all that they could ever want.
The 1st one still seems anti-gay in at least 1 place.

Meg Tilly was an interesting actress. She's great in one of the Body Snatchers remakes. (and also all her more famous movies.)

which place r26?

I mention the pointless, shot-for-shot remake of the original. Why did they this? Could they improve on it somehow? The only advantage that it's better than a colorized version of the original. I dislike colorization. It's like a moving tinted photograph.

Psycho 2 is an interesting film. It’s great they were actually able to devise a new mystery.
I also like Psycho 3. Hitchcock meets 80s slasher.

R26 what the fuck does gay have to do with anything here? Jesus. Grow up.
The film came out in 1960. Maybe take some American History classes.
