Summary

A shot-for-shot color remake of Hitchcock's 1960 thriller. Phoenix secretary Marion Crane embezzles $400,000 from her employer and flees town, eventually stopping for the night at the isolated Bates Motel, run by the awkward young Norman Bates and his domineering, unseen mother. When Marion vanishes, her sister, her lover, and a private investigator come looking for her.
