There are one or two effective surprises, but this still feels like the kind of sequel which should have been left alone.

Though far from a worthy successor to the original (but why make impossible demands?) the film clearly could have been much worse.

It is a craftsman-like piece of filmmaking with a suitably flaky performance by Perkins, but it isn't really a sequel to Psycho. It continues the story, but not the spell.

Top CriticThis sequel to Alfred Hitchcock's classic is surprisingly good.

The weakest of the series. Still has its fair share of scares.

[It's] a sequel that supports its predecessor instead of diminishes.
12/04/04
Scary and fun, it's as worthy a sequel as one might reasonably expect.
