Now declared legally sane, Norman Bates is released from a mental institution after spending 22 years in confinement over the protests of Marion Crane's sister Lila Loomis, who insists that he's still a killer and that the court's indifference to his victims by releasing him is a gross miscarriage of justice. Norman returns to his motel and the old Victorian mansion where his troubles started, and history predictably begins to repeat itself.

Norman Bates: Mary, I'm becoming confused again, aren't I? Mary: Of course not. Norman Bates: [holding the knife] Don't lie to me! Not you! Mary: Yes, Norman... you are becoming confused again.

Movie Trivia:
- Not based on the book of the same name.
-
The original house set was used and the motel was reconstructed.
-
Director Cameo: ['Richard Franklin'] sitting playing a video game in the diner that Norman works in.
-
Norman refrains from giving Mary the key to Cabin 1. Cabin 1 was the site of the infamous shower scene in Psycho (1960).
-
Meg Tilly was never allowed to watch any sort of television as a child, and so had never seen the original Psycho (1960) and was unaware of its significance. She didn't understand why the press was giving all the attention to Anthony Perkins for his comeback role in this movie, and one day on the set Perkins overheard her say, "Why is Tony getting all the attention?" Perkins was upset, didn't talk to her during filming, and recommended that she be replaced, even though half of her scenes had already been shot.
