The Birds is a classic. Its kind of freaky the way the birds attack everyone. But Psycho is even creepier. I saw a show where they were talking about Alfred and how he went to lengths to get the right sound of the woman being stabbed in the shower. He stabbed different types of melons to get the sound he wanted, and the blood going down the drain in the shower was only chocolate syrup. He said the fake blood didn't look right and that chocolate syrup had the right color. Alfred Hitchcock was classic in everything he did.

Hitchcock was a great director. I think all his movies are great. 39 Steps, North by Northwest, Rear Window, Rope,Psycho, To Catch a Thief, Jamaica Inn, Topaz, Dial M for Murder. He could scare you with out all the blood and gore of today. He was a master of using the story and music to make you see it his way. He was a master of using shadows and using B/W. He used the different shades of gray to help him. In Topaz he changed one persons name and the rest of the movie is a true story. How he got his facts for it is a mystery to me. The Cuban missile crisis was a hot bed of political intrigue. Three governments hold the story how he filmed it id a ?
Hitchcock was among the most consistently successful and publicly recognizable directors in the world during his lifetime, and remains one of the best known and most popular directors of all time, famous for his expert and largely unrivalled control of pace and suspense throughout his movies.
Hitchcock's films draw heavily on both fear and fantasy, and are known for their droll humour. They often portray innocent people caught up in circumstances beyond their control or understanding
Hitchcock preferred the use of suspense over surprise in his films. In surprise, the director assaults the viewer with frightening things. In suspense, the director tells or shows things to the audience which the characters in the film do not know, and then artfully builds tension around what will happen when the characters finally learn the truth.
Further blurring the moral distinction between the innocent and the guilty, occasionally making this indictment inescapably clear to viewers one and all, Hitchcock also makes voyeurs of his "respectable" audience. In Rear Window (1954), after L. B. Jeffries (played by James Stewart) has been staring across the courtyard at him for most of the film, Lars Thorwald (played by Raymond Burr) confronts Jeffries by saying, "What do you want of me?" Burr might as well have been addressing the audience. In fact, shortly before asking this, Thorwald turns to face the camera directly for the first time — at this point, audiences often gasp.

Alfred Hitchcock is hands down one of the greatest directors of all time. I adore all his films, even the slighty sadistic ones. My favorite is Strangers on a Train and is the reason I still am unable to strike up a conversation with a stranger on the subway. I also love Notorious (with Cary Grant), Psycho, Rear Window, oh the list goes on and on. Hitchcock was so amazingly crafty and he could scare us to death without the gore and guts we require today.

Yes, I love Psycho by Alfred Hitchcock, it's my favourite film ever! It was able to scare me to death without even showing a single stab wound. The audience manipulation is amazing. And his other other films are great too.

Alfred Hitchcock was a genious for his surprise
endings. Also his ability to give his readers
and show watchers absolute tension. Other
words sitting on the edge of your seat waiting
for something to happen. The answer to your
question, Yes absolutely.!!!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM! My favorite is Family Plot. He was such a good director. Rope, Frenzy, and Strangers on a Train are others I love. I don't think there is a movie he made that I didn't like.
