Noah and Jonesy, dressed in their finest old lady clothes and dusty wigs, discuss the Alfred Hitchcock hit: Psycho!Mild mannered hottie Marion Crane steals $40,000 from her employer in order to run away with her hunky fella Sam. But as paranoia and guilt get to her, she finds herself taking up a room in the Bates Motel and meets the nice-guy-but-is-he Norman Bates. What follows is a story filled with mommy issues, mystery, murder, stuffed birds for some reason, and tension that all culminates in a twist the likes of which M Night Shyamalan probably spent his teenage "special alone time" thinking about!WIth everyone knowing how the movie ends nowadays, does the twist still pack a punch? Aren't stab wounds supposed to appear on the body where someone gets stabbed? Does the movie still deserve to be considered one of the best ever made? We'll be the judge of that.Make sure to follow us on other social media: IG, Twitter, Facebook: @ufrpodcastSign up for prizes: http://www.ufrpodcast.com/give-a-ways Email us: [email protected]
