It's Hitchcock Month on the Blog

Instead of watching crappy horror movies every day in October (which was a thought that crossed my mind), I'm delving into the oeuvre of a director whom I greatly admire.  The thriller is probably my favorite movie genre and Hitchcock earned the nickname "The Master of Suspense" for a reason.

This month, I'll be delving into a bunch of flicks that I haven't seen before (and many that I have) and I'll be dusting off my two Hitchcock dvd collections...time to actually watch them rather than just have them sit on the shelf.

As far as that Disney Discussion goes, I wholeheartedly plan to attack that one again at the start of the year.

But, for now, let's learn about the art of suspense from the guy who did it best.
