Lit Log #2 Psycho

If I was to change the title of this film I would change it to two-faced. I chose this title because during the movie you see this hotel guy with two different personalities, one crazy side and one that’s almost sane. Norman’s first side would consist of a momma’s boy that would care for anyone in the world unless he heard things that he didn’t like that would trigger his other side. Norman’s second side could be called Psycho instead of using the name for the film it could be used as one of his charcters. The name carries so much weight and I think that his personality would fit on that name perfectly. During the film I would start it off with a flashback of Norman and his mother at a young age showing how happy they are, then advance like 15 years ahead of time leaving the audience on a cliffhanger by just showing new characters to develop a new story until it’s time for a character to come across Norman and the hotel. Instead of it being a runaway girl I would make it a family making their yearly vacation trip but a snowstorm is incoming and they just need a place to stay for that night and they decide to stay at Norms. When the family gets there Norman would be showing his caring side welcoming the new guests to his hotel but he sees this boy whose super attached to his mama and in Normans head you can see it starts to get to him because his mom is no longer around but no one knows yet because everyone thinks shes still alive but only some knows she’s been passed away for awhile. As Norman constantly sees the boy during their stay it just drives him crazy for some reason and he starts to psycho and starts doing things that ends up scaring the family and once everyone is asleep the family wakes up the next day and the boy is gone. They go looking for him and contact Norman but there’s no trace Norman isnt even there anymore neither is the kid. The family then contacts the cops and they say that the place has been abandoned for years and that the owners passed away a long time ago. So now the family is going crazy but the dad notices a house far in the woods and decides to go looking for his son.
