Psycho II is the terrifying sequel to one of the most suspenseful films of all time, Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. Anthony Perkins makes a horrific homecoming in his role as the infamous Norman Bates, who after years of treatment at a mental institution for the criminally insane, still can't quite elude the demands of "Mother." Vera Miles also returns as the inquisitive woman who is haunted by her sister's brutal murder and the ominous motel where it all occurred. Meg Tilly and Dennis Franz co-star in this fiendish chiller.

Critics Consensus: Although it can't hold a cleaver to the classic original, Psycho II succeeds well enough on its own merits to satisfy horror fans.

Reviews

Midwest Film Journal

Nick Rogers

Simultaneously the franchise's best and most frustrating sequel — complicating the clarity of its interrogation of America's relationship with mental health with a cacophonous and clumsy ending.

Far, far better than 23-years-later follow-up to Psycho had any right to be, on top of being far, far better than a slasher sequel had any right to be in 1983.

Trace Thurman

Shockingly good for a 23-years-later sequel, making the bold choice to make the original's antagonist its protagonist. And you know what? It works. It works very, very well.

It doesn't stop being a repetition. [Full Review in Spanish]

Franklin's consummate handling of suspense, black humour and several paradigm-shifting twists mak[e] this a worthy sequel to the original, and a convincing evocation of the old master's ghost.
