I bet there were a lot of people who thought it could never be pulled off, but Psycho II turned out to be a very worthy sequel to Hitchcock's 1960 classic. Occasionally tongue-in-cheek, sometimes an homage, but always an engrossing whodunit with some clever twists and turns. Keeps you guessing right to the end.
And in a nod to the recent slasher craze at the time, it briefly plays on the "if you're a teenager who smokes pot and has promiscuous sex, you're gonna die<abbr> motif </abbr>
Also Dramatic Look Gopher there is a scene in this film
when Norman Bates goes into his Mother's room
( and for the very first time since he left for the hospital 23 years ago ) 
.
. Norman walks partly in and stands in the doorway of the room it's very dark
except for a bit of light on the right side of this scene ( and TV screen)
( possibly from the bedroom window which we don't see )
reflecting off of his mother's chifferobe door
is also a medium sized cut-out of the Alfred Hitchcock silhouette too
IMPO - It was most likely done in a sort of a memory cameo of the director .
. Thanks so much Dramatic Look Gopher
for this awesome film sequel reminder too
