![Psycho (Collector's Edition) [DVD] [Standard]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/d79aecdf-fa15-43b0-945b-7a62eae440a5.jpg)

This is one of the best remakes I've ever seen, my wife and I love it! This film is intentionally done exactly frame-for-frame as the 1960 Alfred Hitchcock version, (aside from a few modern day upgrades). Vince Vaughn is fantastic as Norman Bates. Also starring William H. Macy, Anne Heche, and Julianne Moore. If you're a fan of the old psycho, you won't be disappointed. I highly recommend it! Another film I recommend with Vince Vaughn playing the role of a killer is Clay Pigeons.
What's great about it: Vince Vaughn as Norman Bates.
What's not so great: Couldn't find anything.

This is a great movie, one of my wife and I's favorites! This film has gone virtually unnoticed for over 20 years, (except to the small group of movie buffs like us). Starring two of todays top actors Mickey Rourke and Robert De Niro, this psychological thriller will keep you guessing all the way to the end. This movie gets better every time I watch it! I highly recommend it! Also, some other similar movies I recommend are Devil's Advocate, Jacob's Ladder, and The Jacket.
What's great about it: Mickey Rourke and Robert De Niro.

This was a really good movie, my wife and I loved! The plot is very twisted and keeps you guessing right up to the end. It was directed by Adam Green (Hatchet) and stars Joel David Moore (also in Hatchet). If you're a fan of psychological thrillers like Secret Window and Identity, then I think you'll like this movie. I highly recommend it! Also, some other similar movies I recommend are Trauma, Session 9, and The Machinist.
What's great about it: Keeps you guessing.
What's not so great: Couldn't find anything.

This was a great movie, my wife and I loved it! It was actually much better than we thought it would be. It has a very intriguing plot with a great twist at the end. I highly recommend it! Some similar films I also recommend are Spiral, Session 9, Angel Heart, and High Tension.

This was a great slasher film, my wife and I loved it! We're fans of the WWE, so it was nice to see Kane in a horror movie. The plot is somewhat predictable, as with most slasher films. It's how they go about it that makes it fun. Another psycho-religious mother turns her son into a serial killer, as they usually do. Kane, at 7 feet tall and about 330 lbs., makes a formidable serial killer. In fact, I don't think he said but two words through the whole movie. All around, this film was very entertaining. I highly recommend it! Also, some other good slasher films I recommend are Laid to Rest, Seed, Midnight Movie, Black X-mas, Reeker, and No Man's Land: Rise of the Reeker.
What's great about it: Kane!

My wife and I watched this and didn't like it. First of all, we have the film Ed Gein which is more accurate to the real story. It could pass for a documentary. Second, they butchered the real story of Ed Gein, (no pun intended). Kane Hodder, which was good in the Friday the 13th films when he played Jason, plays Ed Gein, but is twice the size of the real Ed Gein. Also, he kills like a dozen or so people in the film. The real Ed Gein only killed 2-4 people. This was just another slasher film LOOSELY based on Ed Gein. (And a 'B' version at that.) If you want to see the real story of Ed Gein that inspired the killers in such films as Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Psycho, and Silence of the Lambs, then I recommend watching Ed Gein (with Steve Railsback). Not this one!
What's great about it: Kane Hodder.
What's not so great: Steers too far from the real story, bad acting.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This compilation contains four movies about the serial killers Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy, and Ed Gein.

My wife and I love these movies! My wife and I have always had an interest in serial killers and criminal psychology, and have several books and documentaries on the subject. All four films are very accurate and stick to the facts of the real events. The only one I thought that could've been better was Dahmer. They only showed the young Dahmer, they could've gone more indepth into his older years, how he got caught, the aftermath, etc. But it was still good. The other three Ted Bundy, Ed Gein, and Gacy, are almost word-for-word on the real characters and could practically be documentaries. Other people have tried to do movies based on these and other serial killers, but tend to go overboard and take away from the real story. Namely Gein that starred Kane Hodder (Jason in Friday the 13th), which was a knockoff of Ed Gein in this set. First of all, Hodder is twice the size of the real Ed Gein. Second, he kills like a dozen people in the movie. The real Ed Gein only killed 2-4 people. So, now you know what I mean by going overboard. They make them to Hollywood-ish. If you want to hear the real stories of these serial killers, I highly recommend this set. Also, some other good real serial killer movies that tell the story like it is are Helter Skelter, Monster, Night Stalker, and Zodiac (the new version, not the 'B' movie knockoff).
What's great about it: All four movies are great!
What's not so great: Couldn't find anything.

This is a great horror movie, my wife and I love it!!! The plot is very indepth and very intriguing. It's a haunting movie mixed with a possession movie, rather unique. This movie will keep you on the edge of your seat with plenty of creepy and jumpy scenes. My wife and I saw it in the theater and again on DVD, the unrated cut. It was great both times! I highly recommend it! Also, some other good horror movies to come out recently are The Uninvited, The Eye, House, From Within, and Martyrs.
What's great about it: Very creepy and very intense, geat special effects.
What's not so great: Couldn't find anything.

This was a great holiday film, my wife and I loved it! We personally don't like X-mas, we think it's overrated and all about shopping. So, when films like this and Bad Santa come out, it gives us something to look forward to other than another cheesy dime-a-dozen Disney X-mas movie. This was a great remake of a classic old school slasher film. The plot is very similar to that of Halloween. So, if you're a fan of slasher films with lots of killing and lots of gore, I highly recommend it! Also, some other good slasher films to come out recently are Laid to Rest, Halloween (new version), My Bloody Valentine (new version in 3-D), Friday the 13th (new version), and The Last House on the Left (new version).
What's great about it: Very entertaining!
What's not so great: Couldn't find anything.

This was really good for an independent film, my wife and I loved it! The plot is rather unique, it's kind of a mix between The Hills Have Eyes and Children of the Corn. It's really creepy and keeps your interest till the end. The acting and special effects were decent for an independent film. My only complaint was the picture quality which was kind of fuzzy, but then again, it's a rather low budget film. My wife and I like to call these films, 'A-' films. It's not a Hollywood blockbuster with a buch of big name actors, but it's also not one of those cheesy pooly made 'B' movies with terrible special effects and such bad acting that it looks like they pulled the actors off a street corner and said, 'Hey, I'll pay you to read this cue card.' Hence, 'A-' film. This was a good movie, I highly recommend it! Also, some other good 'A-' films I recommend are The Devil's Chair, Seed, High Tension, Martyrs, The Ugly, and Murder-Set-Pieces (the unrated director's cut).
What's great about it: Very creepy and very disturbing.
What's not so great: The picture clarity could've been better, it's kind of fuzzy.
I would recommend this to a friend!
