Check in, unpack. The Bates Motel, an innocuous pit-stop on the way to California. Relax, have a chat. Hospitable owner Norman Bates (Vince Vaughan) is delighted to welcome his newest guest, Marion Crane (Anne Heche): baggage, unknown. Join him for dinner, just one night. Secrets, scandal and suspicion may be just the ticket to get this motel back on the map. Make a plan, take a shower. Gus Van Sant’s vision of the classic nightmare will leave you crying for your mother.
“An artful, good-looking remake that shrewdly revitalizes the aspects of the real Psycho (1960)” – Janet Maslin, The New York Times
