"Scene Weekly" This week on Scene Weekly, Jonathan and Stephen check into the eerie world of "Motel Movies" with two psychological thrillers that redefine suspense: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho (1960) and Christopher Nolan’s Memento (2000). Jonathan argues that Psycho is the ultimate motel nightmare, with its iconic twists, chilling score, and Norman Bates’ haunting performance. Stephen makes the case for Memento, a mind-bending tale of memory and revenge, where the seedy motel setting mirrors the fractured psyche of its protagonist.
