"Psycho" (Universal) "Movie fans all know about Norman Bates, his nutty, knife-wielding mother and their creepy motel ("12 cabins, 12 vacancies."). Did you know, however, that Alfred Hitchcock's most disturbing thriller was independently produced for less than $1 million and that the notorious shower scene (which took 7 days to shoot) required some 70 camera set-ups. That blood seen spiraling down the shower drain was actually Bosco chocolate syrup. Pure movie magic!" (1960, 109 min)What to bring: Blankets, snacks, beverages, umbrellas, bug spray, warm clothes. You can pack snacks and non-alcoholic drinks for a picnic vibe.
