Psycho 1998 (w/ Kirstin Cills) ReMarch vol 4

from Kill By Kill: Talking Horror Characters One Death At A Time · host We Write Good

The Ides of ReMarch are upon us! And now that we have discussed both the good and the bad kinds of horror remakes, it’s time to delve into the inexplicable: the 1998 “replica” of PSYCHO!! Here to help us make sense of the nonsensical is stand-up comedian and horror lover Kristen Cills!! We’re asking the big questions, like why did Gus Van Sant blow his post-Good Will Hunting blank check on this project? Is Psycho a better movie when you can almost see Viggo Mortensen’s pubes? Why is half the cast dressed like it’s 1960, and the rest look like they walked off of a Blur music video? What is the Small Soldiers Behind-The-Scenes Experience? With the pantheon of interesting actors making films at the time, why was Vince Vaughn the first choice for Norman Bates? What does work about this film, and why?! All this, plus Universal’s cursed (and blessed) 1998, watching Psycho as you make Psycho, losing to A Big’s Life, the buried secrets on Patrick’s ancient DVD, wet flapping meat sounds, and a soon-to-be-classic version of Choose Your Own Deathventure!!  Check in, relax… and take a shower after you listen to this in-depth episode!!   Follow Kristin on IG and TikTok!     Part of the BLEAV Network.Get even more episodes exclusively on Patreon!
