I liked the premiere, and it should be interesting to see how it plays out. But I found it a little distracting that this prequel to
Psycho was set in modern times with iPhones and kids texting.
Ha ha ha!! That's right. It IS kind of backwards isn't it?

I don't mind they modernize it. I've been by the Psycho house at Universal Studio, tho it's been years. The outside shot of the house on the series looks the same. I assume it is.
I remember my parents coming home from seeing that movie (1960?). They were all a-buzz about not only the famous shower scene but how it ended.

I believe Hitchcock requested that nobody be allowed to into the film once it started (or something like that). I only saw it on tv a few years later. It would have been a good one to see at the movies.
