Psycho III Plot Summary
Anthony Perkins stars in and directs the most shocking Psycho film of all: Psycho III. After spending 22 years in a lunatic asylum, Norman Bates returns home to his house on the hill and the motel where all the nasty deeds once took place. When a pretty young woman (Diana Scarwid) runs to the motel - and Norman's open arms - to escape a scandalous secret, he finally gets a chance at a new life. But he has one murderous skeleton in his closet that will do anything not to share him. Norman also hires a guitar playing drifter (Jeff Fahey) to work at the now-busy motel while trying to keep a nosy reporter (Roberta Maxwell) away from finding out about Mother. It's a new day at the Bates Motel, but the nightmares are just beginning.
