Trivia:
|
- In the original Psycho, Alfred Hitchcock wanted his opening shot to be a long, complete pan/zoom over the city into Marion's hotel room. Sadly, the technology was not yet perfected, and he achieved his effect through a series of pans and dissolves. The new Gus Van Sant remake does a complete travelling shot, as Hitchcock had intended.
- When Norman Bates cleans the bathroom, the blood on the shower wall has disappeared. This copies a continuity error in the original.
- The exterior motel set was the same one used in the original Psycho. However, the house was a new set constructed directly in front of the old house on the backlot at Universal Studios. On completion of filming, they moved this second house alongside the first for the backlot tour.
- In the famous shower scene where Anne Heche's character is stabbed to death, blood on the shower tiles, the knife, and Heche's wounds were all digitally added after filming to enhance the shock value.
- The kitchen knife is credited as belonging to John Woo.
