I had to watch it because the main character is based on the motel owner in the movie Psycho, the one with the creepy shower stabbing scene. I always liked that horror movie, for a horror because it was actually scary, like sometimes I still get nervous about getting in the shower if I am by myself even though I saw it years ago. I kind of thought the show might act as kind of a prequel but it really didn't...it was an original series with a character based on him. Anyways I thought it was really good, certainly disturbing. But basically ended up being a kind of drama/thriller of a kid, his unhealthy relationship with his over-protective mother and some dark things in the past that finally drive him to insanity. Certainly one of those shows that is hard to stop watching once you start.
And both are really based on Ed Gein.
