I watched it on blu recently as I have the Psycho box set from Australia. It has its moments but it's also such a wrong-headed film. Vince Vaughn is completely miscast as Norman, and Rita Wilson is completely miscast as Marion's co-worker. The film cannot seem to decide if it's set in the present day or it's a period piece.
[Show spoiler]Plus, the audible sounds of masturbation are not only a crude addition, but having him masturbate completely negates one of the primary driving forces behind Norman "becoming" his mother.
Yeah, they definitely said that about Psycho IV a few years back, which of course they've now released. Guess it wasn't below them after all?

Sorry to disappoint you, but I didn't acquire it nor do I ever plan to. There are much better films to go after.
edit: He also posted this when someone made a list of possible upcoming titles including this 1998 film
