How do you feel about suspense?

Suspense has only one synonym.......ALFRED HITCHCOCK. I've seen several films of the maestro and they never cease to amaze me. It gives me goosebumps to realize how he could portray the most inner aspects and fears of a mind with subtlety and thrill. His films are never too little, never too much dipped in psychological challenges and the truth of the moment. Everyone has seen Psycho at least If not, don't miss one of the greatest films of the 20th Century, please watch it! What other suspense films do you like, of Hitchcock's or others' ?

@ria1606roy It really is and I am always reminded of it around this time of year when the birds around here all gather together before going south for the winter.

My favorite movie of Alfred Hitchcock is "Rear Window" for sure.

One of the top Hitchcock films I liked the motion of the camera, from one window to the other. And the thrilling yet funny ending

Alfred Hicthcock's name is synonym with thrill and suspense. I've read about the movie psycho but did not get an opportunity to see it. I will surely watch it, as soon as I get a chance.

@ria1606roy - If your friend was with you when you were watching the movie then you would have managed to overcome your nervousness, fears and erratic heart beat.

@dpk262006 I wasn't that unlucky lol. My friend suggested to me in her house and we started watching it that way. By the end we were crushing each other's hands, so frightened and chilled we were.

I like movies that are full of suspense and action all the way through the movie.

Action packed movies are my favorite too, provided it has a good story too.

I have seen all movies by Alfred Hitchcock, even the very first ones before he became famous. I love suspense movies. One of my favorite, Notorious.

@LadyDuck that I have seen! North by Northwest was very thrilling. Hitchcock's one of the best package films I've seen.

Haven't seen Notorious. And his very old films are quite interesting.

I like the one where the man is sitting in I think a wheelchair watching people. I cannot remember the name or who that was playing that part.

I prefer suspense to blood and guts all over the place. Hitchcock's movies are among my favorites.
