Watched the Michael Powell film Peeping Tom, it was really good. In any other year it would have been the best horror film of the year but unfortunately it came out the same year as Psycho.
The basic story is a man is going around photographing women as he murders them, and it's one of the first horror films to shoot from the killers perspective. It's crazy that this film ruined his career while Psycho only led to more praise for Hitchcock. Life is unfair sometimes. Anyways, if you are a fan of slashers or horror films give this a watch, it influenced so many movies like Friday the 13th , Halloween and Black Christmas just to name a few.
