A compelling psychological thriller, Psycho II picks up where the Hitchcock classic left off. The story follows the release of Norman Bates from a mental institution as he attempts to reintegrate back into society, but forces conspire against him as he once again hears Mother’s call. The writing is rather impressive and finds a nice balance of honoring the Hitchcock classic while also exploring new territory. Anthony Perkins and Vera Miles return, and are joined by Meg Tilly and Robert Loggia. Additionally, director Richard Franklin does a pretty good job, though he’s clearly not up to Hitchcock’s level. Full of intrigue and suspense, Psycho II is a strong follow-up to a masterpiece.
