Peeping Tom

PEEPING TOM (1960) - March 3, 2004
An excellent thriller about a peeping tom who films his victims as he kills them, and the relationship he develops with a girl who lives in his building. Hitchcock-esque, though darker than most of Hitchcock's films (figuratively, not literally -- the film's use of bright, primary colours, particularly red, is interesting if somewhat dated). Quite similar to Pyscho (killer who likes to watch, with an almost child-like quality, etc.) but they came out the same year so I suppose it's coincidental. Psycho is the better film, and has aged better, but this was really good nonetheless. ***1/2
