Moral of the story: Never trust a man who says "I hope to be a director very soon."
I bet Hitchcock wished he made this.

his name wasn’t even tom.
The killer’s backstory is that his scientist father performed experiments on him as a child that can basically be summed up with “what if I made my son the weirdest guy of all time”
There is always an automatic aura of respect surrounding Powell's films. The attention to detail, the immaculate use of colours and the stunning set designs and mis en scene should garner nothing other than admiration and awe. Peeping Tom is no exception. It is an…
This is about Vloggers.
just a silly man with traumas who loves women trying to fit in, he didn't do anything wrong!
Frankly I can see why sicko pervert Martin Scorsese is so obsessed with this. Had a miserable time watching this with my four Christian daughters. This movie does not honor Christ.
i just adored this film, it is a fascinating character study on childhood trauma and the psychology of paraphilias, while putting the audience in the shoes of a voyeuristic spectator themselves it’s age did not hurt it at all either, the writing and camera work is still fantastic
Here voyeurism itself looks outwards and inwards, confounding perpetrator and victim, filmmaker and viewer, camera and phallic weapon, while observing a pathology as metacinematic as it is psychiatric.
I see this came out around the same time as Psycho, and this definitely stands on its own. Great performances all around, but the actor who played Mark captured that character perfectly. Most horror/thriller films around that time period don't hold up to today's standards, but this definitely does.
Ahead of its time with the meta elements on filmmaker and audience, the audience’s compliancy in the act by watching it. As well as the themes of trauma, which seems to be explored in every horror movie now; there’s also self-reflective elements from Michael Powell in the script
Contextually and in a historical sense, this is a very important and influential movie in the horror genre. By today’s standards, it would either bore high-octane horror hounds or turn off casual audiences. A very niche audience for this one.
Before Psycho this movie was the first ever slasher and started a new wave of films after it. But this was a very good serial killer thriller but as a slasher in hole it doesn’t have that unique formula that makes some slashers awesome.
Mark was disturbing at the onset. A very curious tale of how childhood trauma and the sins of our parents can impact who we become as adults. The ending was completely unexpected!
far ahead of its time. one of the first pov serial killer movies! this film really feels like it could be late 60s or early 70s, i can’t believe it was filmed in 1959!!
This movie was actually pretty good for being the first ever slasher movie. Today I wouldn’t call this a slasher but the story is interesting and unique.
