It’s time for a new episode of our video series The Black Sheep, and in this one we’re here to discuss the merits of a sequel to the Alfred Hitchcock classic Psycho. And it’s not Psycho II, which is widely seen as a surprisingly worthy “twenty-three years later” follow-up. The one we’re looking at today is the less popular Psycho III (watch it HERE), which was directed by Anthony Perkins himself. To find out what we had to say about Psycho III, check out the video embedded above.
Scripted by Charles Edward Pogue, Psycho III has the following synopsis:
Former mental patient Norman Bates is once again operating his infamous motel. Assisted by the shifty Duane Duke, Norman keeps up the semblance of being sane and ordinary, but he still holds on to some macabre habits. Eventually, Norman becomes interested in Maureen Coyle, a troubled tenant who’s been staying on a long-term basis and reminds him of someone from his past. As Norman and Maureen begin a relationship, can he keep his demons in check?
Perkins reprises the role of Norman Bates and is joined in the cast by Jeff Fahey, Diana Scarwid, Roberta Maxwell, Hugh Gillin, Robert Alan Browne, Gary Bayer, Lee Garlington, Donovan Scott, Karen Hensel, Jack Murdock, Katt Shea, and Juliette Cummins.
