What happened to the Psycho house? 

It still wasn't as thrilling as the video about the piece of cardboard.

+Henriko Magnifico I'd enjoy your comment more if your grammar was consistent. ...enjoyed it.*

Redmen A No. This, talking about cinematic history, even if it's just about a façade, is not strange. I mean, isn't this one reason we're subbed to Cinemassacre (the other being AVGN)?

Good for you, but why type it in bold?

Henriko Magnifico \ (👁 w 👁) /

Thank GOD!!

Yap and they kind of had to do that since it was built with asbestos which could've killed a lot of people in the theme park there.

they're moving it to a new part in the lot

lemonbemon id love to check it out when its moved

@@LetsGoGetThem Ah, Asbestos, smells like the 1930s

Brodie Zilla You think this is “SMALL”? How dare you! Wars have started over less!

Facts! More like this my nerd!

They seemed really desperate to shoot right there!

The fact that the show fucked up some of the most iconic horror/film houses just cements my hatred for that damned show

@@trentonfowler4169 It was actually a decent show when you look past the title and get over the fact that it's about housewives in some upper middleclass suburb. Kind of a sinister vibe to it in places as well.

@@placeholdername3206 It's not so good if you have to remove the most important parts to be "decent"

lShadowdark Exactly.

Me too. I toured in 2002 and photographed the house when I did the tour of the backlots. I am happy too.😀

Karen Bavington I did the tour in 1977 when it was still on the hill. Was still in so so shape back then.

I saw the psycho house on a tour in 1990

Kristin Terrana So? Desperate Housewives has a very good following too. Many people come to see the street because of that show.

@@cordeliachase601 Its a shit show though.

"Ellie, we truly are The Desperate Housewives".

paradoxdesigns I call the show the extremely desperate house wives lmao 😂

IKR?? I was really happy I never watched that series, now more than ever!

I cannot escape the irony here of "Desperate Housewives" being filmed in "Psycho House". :)

paradoxdesigns there so desperate

A movie could be made about the changes(destruction) to that street. Now THAT would be a horror movie.

"Munsters"

Definitely. How could they just destroy the Munster's house for a stupid reality show? Such a waste.

So that's why Dale Cooper was there.

@@lynntaylor9681 it was a dramedy show not a reality show. I think you mean the real housewives of

Griffisuuu They did use the Stanley Hotel in television miniseries remake of The Shinning that happened in 97. It was based more on the book than the Kubrick version, but interesting that it was used for some of the shoot.

The Stanley Kubrick 'The Shining' movie was, other than a few Arial shots, filmed entirely in Britain (just like a few of his other movies - it's said that Stanley was afraid of flying, so preferred not to travel for his movies) even the movie 'Full Metal Jacket' was filmed in its entirety in England, including the Vietnam scenes (my wife got to visit the set for FMJ when she was about 12, as her uncle was an electrician on set and it was the Vietnam set, and only filmed about 5 miles from her house in Dagenham, aswell as a clockwork orange being filmed about 5 miles from this location too). You tend to find a lot of movies/TV are not filmed at the actual locations that they are set in.

Funny story, they actually had to change the room number where all the creepy sh*t goes down. I think in the novel it was 217 and in the Kubrick film it was 237, they did this so that future guests who visited wouldn't feel frightened or superstitious about staying in the room, although I'd feel frightened by just staying in the Hotel to begin with.

Dumb and Dumber has parts of the film filmed at the actual Stanley, but the Shinning wasn’t. I visited it a few months ago it was really neat.

Well actually the hotel they use for the aerial shots of timberline lodge in Colorado

Agreed, I drove by it several times. It was really cool.

logan kerr A “hose”? There was a hose in the background? The Munsters did it. They were probably too busy bickering to notice that they left it.

The town council was just plain dumb. Any life or inventiveness to them and you're quite right they could have turned the motel part below into something for tourists and left the house as the backdrop.

I'm sad it finished :(

The show just ended.

The show ended in April 2017, so how can they have taken it down 5 years after the show ended, when it just ended this year?

RedVIII They started shooting in 2013 and ended in 2017.

RedVIII My point exactly.

Lmfao the fact that they took down the original psycho house but are in no rush to change whoville

Agreed...

I think The Grinch might be moving into that house, where he can lord over The Whos and scowl down at them!

The Whoville set was dismantled recently

LOL why do you hold on to an old piece of wood you swiped from a movie lot?Live in the moment, man!

@@technoman9000 Spoken like a true millennial!!!!!

@@technoman9000 It’s simply memorials and keepsakes, not understanding that - laughing at it even, makes you incredibly naïve. Besides, if you don't remember the past you are bound to repeat stupid mistakes and dangerous patterns. Live in the moment, but don't forget that the past is what brought you to that moment you're now living in.

Mikael Karlsson I say fuck that guy. That’s a cool story and a nice bit of memorabilia for you to hold onto. I’m 19 and know full well how important remembering shit can be to people, guy talking down on you must be 12.

I am a millenial and I'd cherish that piece of wood like the piece of history that it is

Deadwolf Harry Potter 🤷🏻‍♂️

Deadwolf asbestos.

That's fun and all, but I bet there was some pretty good decay going on. And fully restoring something that is only important for being the original doesn't make sense either.

They only demolished the sound stage, the set was placed into storage.

Corporations

Defo true there its just pisses me off what there did to those classic films

Yep, and now the Tora, Tora, Tora battleships are gone.

Who cares? 🤷‍♂️ What are they supposed to do? Keep every single set from every classic movie ever? Do you know how much space that would start taking up? Most studios do this. Old Disney ride carts are destroyed, the Harry Potter sets were destroyed by Warner Bros after Deathly Hallows was done. Saving these sets is the equivalent of saving old junk in your basement just soley based on emotional connection. Even if it's never touched.

That's show business baby

I agree, look at what they did to the orca from Jaws? Spielberg has spoken about how they got rid of it, they could have easily kept it and looked after it, It's a classic part of film history.

at least it’s not demolished as long as people are allowed to go in and see I guess

At least the second story wasn't completely destroyed and replaced to make a dumb reality show

i can watch these all day.

These aren’t old films tho

yes, its awesome

@@eggboi8475 well, Psycho is 60 years old. Dracula is 90 years old and The Phantom of the Opera is nearly 100 years old.

That's really intriguing, I guess the house got used quite a lot over the years.

Not that I'm important to the discussion, but that game is also my namesake ;)

I absolutely love the caricatures of the original syico

@@synthtoaster Pehaps u shood uze yr splchk so yu dontlook so stoopid

Harry Fishback hahaha I know your joking 🙃 have fun idc

@@synthtoaster I love your profile picture haha

Me too.

Zachary K. Yes! 😖🙁🙁🙁

Why would anyone do that to a 90 year old priceless relic, is what boggles my mind.

It's just a facade. It's not like they destroyed a real house.

@SPAZE PARANOIDS !!!! ! Pissed off? That's for pussies! I'm fucking outraged!! Who the hell tears down something with such a long history?

Itr is not real it never was it was a grand illusion a fantasy if it were actually something real in my opinion it would lose the whole concept of being a dream it would lose the sense of something we long for but cannot obtain something we knew for only a moment but remembered for a lifetime......

CoinOpTV it's up the hill from the motel, right before War of the Worlds, at the Hollywood location.

Hamstrung Harry LOVE ME SOME FALLOUT REFERENCES 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Some Random RU-vid Commenter stop

Well, according to Old Snake, war has changed

War, it never changes. Or does it? The war has changed. Did it? The answer is No, unless it is Yes. No, of course it is, is it war. Yes.. No.. Yes?

war.. war never chan- (snake) WAR HAS CHANGED!

Deep!

Good point. I was looking at it left-to-right, but it could be going either way.

Does it really matter?

@@Acrophobia1981 Yes it does

Exactly... 1314 is ACROSS the street. And we definitely don't live on a spinning ball covered with water. Lmao.

That's what I was going to say.

Adam Mathis I was trying to remember the name of the paradox! Cheers for that. Happens at the end of Wall•E too. :)

It was mentioned in Doctor Who as well, series 8.

"Our cells and atoms are replaced each year" WRONG, it takes something like 7 years

Cheers to you too Ken. Cookie love the DH reference I'm a big fan. tbb033 yeah we're not 100% replaced each year, but like the ship our parts are gradually changed out.

You forgot the part where the old parts are used to rebuilt the ship, so you have the same ship twice. That may be a newer addition to the paradox though. ^^

Mike Fluff *CSI Miami theme plays*

Emerica "Hey, Vsauce! James here!"

"Hey Nerdsauce, Angry here!"

"And as always, thanks for watching."

"Where are your fingers?"

Theseus.

lol funny how quickly James forgot how addresses work

I was thinking the same thing, 1314 would be across the street

Came here for this comment

Or 1317 or 1309... Not all addresses increment or decrement by 2. It depends how many multiples of the smallest lot size a particular property is.

Butch Patrick would play in the Pshyco house when they were not filming The Munsters.

Norman Bates was in the window (an effect, not an actor) when I went in 2012

When I took the tour twice in the last 10 years, "Norman" came out of the hotel (not the house) carrying Marion, put her in the trunk of his car, and approached the last car in the tram to make people scream. It was fun.

There may have been a Norman cutout but I'm pretty sure the tram we were in never even stopped in front of the house when I went. I remember struggling to get a good picture of it.

Maybe it wasn't part of the tour... just some dude with a knife that James thought was supposed to be Norman

There is a story about jim Carrey going out there with a knife and he wasn't supposed to be there

Except this is a next level Ship of Theseus. Is it still the same ship if it gets repurposed into a house?

Just what I was going to post. Good old paradox that have confounded people for for ages.

In Eastern cultures it doesn't confound anyone, they never have any doubt that it is the same ship.

I am pretty sure you can set up a scenario where it would confound even eastern philosophers. If you do not do away with the whole concept of identity all together that is. Which some do.

StarTsurugi You're so clever.

This went pretty vsauce at the end lol

Angry Movie Film Nerd

The Angry Movie Film Philosopher sounds better.

The Angry Movie Film Plato

Agreed. Psycho 2 is a shockingly good film, for what it is

Actually the third one was directed by Perkins, the fourth one was directed by Mick Garris.

Also don't forget the 1987 pilot to Bates Motel.

Theodore Roosevelt Does it even count as a remake? It's basically a coloured version one, just with out the good acting and creepines.

I pretty much felt the same way about the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Didn't know there were several sequels until I watched James' review of them.

So...... if you had a sledge hammer and the handle broke and you replaced it and then years later the actual hammer head cracked in half so you replaced it. Would it still be the same hammer?

Exactly what I thought...

@@im1who84u Depends-- how hammered am I supposed to be?

Yeah, couldn't have anything to do with epic levels of asbestos on the set. Must be Harry Potters fault.

The stage had stuff in it that could kill everyone in the park if it got into in the air and before you ask why they had that in there to begin with, take in when the film was made. The safety measures we have now and the understanding on what's deadly wasn't really there at that time.

Do not get all over defensive about it. I know why they had to demolish it, but it is still a sad thing. And fuck Harry Potter.

Vesa Laine Cursed Child sucks ass I don’t know why they needed a fucking stage play about the shitty book

Vesa Laine I do love HP but the fans say Cursed Child sucks ass. IM GOING TO GO MAKE AN AMINO POLL AND CHECK

The 29 Niebolt Street house from "IT" is a facade too...

Positron scoot the burbs

But if you saw this video and you're also a Hitchcok fan and movie history buff this is just a pale imitation in a third location marred by large sets from other movies hovering over and around it. Exisiting for the casual tourist.

Don't even get me started on that one

Why what happened with that?

@@Dabajaws WHAT HAPPENED TO IT IT'S BEEN 7 MONTHS I NEED TO KNOW

Err...that's how houses are numbered everywhere in the world... Get out more?

teppolundgren Nope, we have a Street just up the road from us, the numbers go 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8 next to each other.

+julie Wallis Silence!

Same here in PA.

And an episode of Murder She Wrote

It's Buddhist philosophy! The idea that we cling to the "reality" of things that are actually ever changing is one of the most important teachings of Buddhism. It's great to see he came to that conclusion on his own (probably)

i know, right? It's not a bad movie. It's just not the original Psycho. But it doesn't have to be. It's a story about Norman Bates. And not all the people from "Psycho".

No, I believe the delta was a real house in the northwest somewhere

@@thomaskemer8109 But I went to Universal Studios in the late 1970s and while doing the Tour, was shown how the House was made up to look like Delta House and I recall the Tour Guide saying that it was once also used as the Munsters House.

lol... was just looking for that comment.

@@carljcreighton ahhhh fuk. Now making me embarrassed about it. [nose up, british accent]... "ummmm ACTUALLY, it was EDWARD Hopper". [drinks some tea then flips some pages of vonnegut].

They are quite similar as they are I believe mid-century Victorian mansions. They were popular on the east coast in the 1800's.

@@enterprisingcaptian875 Only the Addams house (and it was a real house) was located in of all places, Los Angeles .

@@ZnenTitan True. However if memory serves me Charles Addams grew up in New York and he based the house in his cartoons on a real house there.

@@enterprisingcaptian875 Yes. But if you look it up, the house was a real Victorian in LA . Later on the appearance was made to match the cartoons, with the upper floors and tower done by a matte painting.

Yep
