'Psycho H'a successful continu By REBEKAH WRIGHT Tar Heel Staff Writer After 22 years of psychiatric treatment, Norman Bates re turns from the mental institution, and the long-awaited con tinuation of the Psycho story returns to the big screen. Unlike most other horror sequels, Psycho II has substance, quality and honest-to-goodness chills. Director Richard Frank lin has inherited the late Alfred Hitchcock's ability to make movie goers' flesh crawl. Franklin, who studied under Hitch cock, uses the same techniques to build suspense he frightens the viewer with mental tension and expectations, not through blood and gore. Anthony Perkins re-enacts the character of Norman Bates, who goes back to Bates' Motel, his home, and of course, mother. As the film progresses, Norman's twitch becomes more noticeable, as does the way the viewers twitch in their seats.- . v. Vera Miles recreates her role as Ola Loomis, who is on a per sonal crusade to put Perkins back in the mental institution. With her reappearance in the film come several other cunning surprises. Meg Tilly pulls off her role as Mary Samuels (notice the con nection with Psycho's shower victim Marie Samuels). Her compassion blends well with Perkins' confusion. Franklin does a good job filling in new Psycho film viewers with the movie's history. The past is presented through Per kins' thoughts and conversations with Tilly. Photography director Dean Cundey adds fear to simple ob jects by his creative use of lighting and camera, angles. The viewer may at times feel they are in a flashback of the original Psycho due to the camera positioning. The set is another walk into the past. The only difference is the color in the new version. Norman's birds loom forebod ingly in the motel parlor, and mother's room takes on an as pect of the past, despite its colorful atmosphere. Whether the movie viewer is a Psycho fan from the past or a new thrillseeker, he will be satisfied with the style and scare tac tics of Psycho II. dogger From page 4 from there. And there is a square dance at the church on Tuesdays featuring a band called the Red Rose Flyers who plays the same old time fiddle music we clog to. We prefer it over blue grass." She said a new member will usually come to one of these events, learn the steps and then go through an informal audition. The team consists of 14 women and 12 men, and they perform in sets of eight or 16, so that a high membership turnover does not disrupt their perfor mance. Although they have no set partners, Sisk said there are several married couples in the group. Jeanne Sawyer, whose husband Henry is also a member of the team, said, "My husband and I got started because of our interest in American folk dancing and our involvement in an international dance troupe. We just'wanted to share our love for dancing with others." Jeanne is a graduate student at UNC in computer science and a librarian at Wil son library. "We have three costumes we wear," Sisk said. "The women have peasant blouses with scoop necks and puffy sleeves, mid-calf calico skirts and a plain petticoat. Some groups wear mini skirts with several short petticoats, but we prefer to stay with the tradi tional. The men wear jeans and western-style shirts. - We all wear a type of tap shoes although the original flatfooters didn't have any special footwear." Sisk is not sure exactly how many calories clog ging burns off per hour. "But it wears you out. It's great aerobic exercise because it's a constant rate over a long period of time." -: Sisk said she has post-graduation plans to move in September. "I'll be at a university in Hiroshima teaching English and clogging." GeV 66 No Sweat Tail f 9 Tired of the hassles of a "backyard tan"?
