    I saw Psycho at the age of 12. I skipped school and went to the local fleapit. In 1966 they weren't too fussy who they admitted to their premises despite the age restrictions. Boy was I sorry I skipped school that day. I suppose it kind of served me right. The scene that really shook me up was the overhead shot of Mumsy charging out of that bedroom to stab Arbogast. That was a shocker to my 12 year old mind. However, I do have to say that in 1966 I really was 12 years old unlike today's 12 year olds who are 12 going on 39.

      I didn't think they had age restrictions back then.
      When Psycho was released, it just fell into the simple pass or fail system... which it passed. It never had an age rating. Psycho was later retro-rated for mature audiences though in 1968.

    Saw this film for the first time when I was about 12 years old. Made the mistake of watching it in the dark....Alone....Could barely get up the stairs to bed, I was so shaky. What a master Hitchcock was. Never "in-your-face" gore that leaves nothing to the imagination.Just dark, subtle suggestion that truly messed with your mind....Oh, and yes, Tony Perkins was and remains untouchable as Norman Bates. Psycho....Has to be my favorite film of all time...

    Hitchcock was a marketing genius all right. The only gag was not to let people come in once the "picture" had started. He made common sense turn into an epic pay-off. The theater owners were a riot! They are like cartoon caricatures. "We don't let nobody in once the pictcha' has sta'ted".

      Watching a movie from the moment that you arrive at the theatre regardless of when it started was especially helpful for families with small children (with their short attention spans). When my parents took my sister to see Disney's Pinocchio (when she was only 4 yrs old) this caused a problem for some of the audience. They watched from the middle to the end and then waited to see the beginning that they had missed. When Pinocchio was put in the cage and started to cry my sister called out in a loud voice "Don't cry Pinocchio! Blue fairy comes and saves you. Don't you remember?"

    What 5 other Pictures kept Psycho from Oscars? Hitchcock was regular at the Oscars with North By Northwest, Rear Window, and of course Rebecca

    Dwight MacDonald wrote that this warning about coming in late made no sense because the only reason for seeing the picture are the scare scenes near the end. The first few minutes are pretty dull and Janet Leigh does not stick around much anyway.

      Well, Dwight McDonald is an idiot, because the facts in the end make no sense if you don't watch from the beginning. 🙄

    so Hitchcock is the sole reason that if you show up late to a film, you wait for the next showing. that is so cool.

    I was 14 or 15 when I first saw it, my dad had my sister and I watch it. Of course it was on VHS back in the 90s. Scared the crap out of me, and I couldn’t take a shower for a week after!! This film still my Halloween go to every year!!

    Michael Bay on the other hand would say "Come and see Transformers 3. It doesn't matter if you miss the beginning, middle or end of the film. Hell, I don't even know the actual story. Just watch the big explosions, CGI and mindless violence."

    Create a little intrigue.. or offer endless possibilities.. and people are drawn in by their own need to know.. there are differing ways in which to do so. If I follow this path where will it lead me.. if I close this door will it end everything .. who knows.. who has the bravery or shows the fearlessness to do so.. who will be intimidated.
    So to those who didn't want to understand human nature all I can is it's your loss.. personally I find it simply delightful and fascinating.. though at times frustrating as hell.

    Psycho and Vertigo are the best Hitchcock's films I have seen, Actually those are the ones, Any suggestions of any other film of him. Thank you and nice day everyone.

    I don't know if it's so much a policy as it is a norm but I've never seen anyone come late to a movie. The only cases of it is if someone leaves during the movie and comes back (toilet breaks and such)

    I'll watch Dial M for Murder thank you very much. I think the terror and suspense in these films is better than the films of nowadays.

    That late arrival wasn't an actor. No way.
    Also I was brought here by a guy who failed to land on a plane because the plane's driver drove it into the sea.

    I love the bit at the end of this video, where the movie theater owners talk about the policy. They look wooden and emotionless, hardly open their mouths when they speak, and talk very monotonously. Compare this to the over-the-top way people talk on TV nowadays - even sentences like "a chicken crossed the road to get to the other side" are overly dramatised and sound like a headline concerning a terrorist threat if a TV presenter utters them! I don't know if it wasn't better in the 60s...

    Now look at it. People know the twist and it is written all over the comment section of youtube. Thanks to sequels and the remake the twist is not as mysterious as it is supposed to be in the movie.

    Should be the policy for all movies, after the trailers end nobody can come in late to disrupt the movie.

    Its more of a suspense than a horror. Very good film. Scariest part is probably at the end though. That will give you nightmares I promise. Scared the shit out of me, I only saw it a few days ago and I'm 16
