In 1960, Director Alfred Hitchcock made a movie called PSYCHO.

You remember: Janet Leigh in the shower, Norman Bates, the old creepy house on the hill...

A couple of years ago, Universal Studios decided to remake Hitchcock's movie. But not just remake. Their idea was to reproduce the veteran director's film as closely as possible.

To that extent they intentionally copied (filmed) every line of dialogue, every scene, every camera angle, and every editing choice exactly as had been done by Hitchcock in the 1960 version. The only differences being that the cast--of very good actors--was different, it was shot in color, and Hitchcock didn't direct it.

The result: Hitchcock's original is still a classic, and the remake is a piece of crap.

The reason: artistry...
