Horror is an ancient art form.In the past technology wasn't so developed and was recorded in black and white like Psycho (Alfred Hitchcock).The famous shower scene developed where there was space in the side frame to show thats where the threat is coming from and there diegetic sound coming from the characters screaming and the water dripping.There is no non-diegtic sound at the point when you can see a blurred figure behind the shower curtains until he stabs her there is menacing tone of parrallel music when he stabs her multiple times. A closeup is used to convey the distress through the victims facial expression and back lighting is used so the identity of the killer is hidden a typical horror convention.It was distributed by Paramount Pictures released on June 16th 1960.Budget spent on the film was $806,947 and the gross revenue was $32 million!
