Trivia:
|
- Viggo Mortensen starred in another Hitchcock remake the same year, A Perfect Murder. In both movies he is the female protagonist's lover, begins the first scene of each film in bed with her, and is involved in a crime involving an identical amount of $400,000.
- When Norman Bates cleans the bathroom, the blood on the shower wall has disappeared. This copies a continuity error in the original.
- The last frame in the film is a skull that is superimposed over Vince Vaughn's face. This is the same skull used in the last frame of Psycho, superimposed over Anthony Perkins's face.
- During filming, Gus Van Sant brought along a DVD player and played the original Psycho, and they acted from that. When he spotted a mistake (a door opening without a key), van Sant decided to put the same mistake into his film.
- Gus Van Sant makes a cameo talking to someone looking just like Alfred Hitchcock in the beginning of the movie when Marion Crane enters the office after her lunch break. In the original version of Psycho, Hitchcock had a cameo in the same scene.

Credits Fun:

- Thanks to John Woo for use of his kitchen knife.
- The logo for Imagine drips in blood instead of water.
- If you look closely at the swamp after the end credits, the water turns red, obviously to blood.
