TheDailyWoo - 257 (3/15/13) Going Psycho !

0:05 Welcome everyone. Adam the Woo here. I'm

0:05 standing here next to this concrete or

0:07 maybe a non-concrete

0:09 substance here in Phoenix, Arizona. I

0:13 don't know if that's concrete or not.

0:14 Can you hear that? Listen.

0:18 That's prefabricated concrete. Maybe you

0:20 people who work on buildings or

0:22 construction people that are more savvy

0:24 than I am, or maybe you're just a fan of

0:26 concrete. Is that real concrete or

0:29 nonfake non-real concrete in Phoenix,

0:32 Arizona? It's my second channel, daily

0:34 blog channel. Look at the skyrises here.

0:37 It's the daily woo. I've been in

0:39 Phoenix, Arizona two times within the

0:42 last 4 days. Two times in 4 days. I was

0:45 here a couple days ago when I showed you

0:46 the amazing junkyard that's on the

0:49 outskirt suburbs of Phoenix. Today, I'm

0:51 showing you the downtown area. You can

0:54 see the skyrises right up there. pretty

0:56 fantastic. And why am I here? Oh, I was

0:58 going to let you know also, we played in

1:00 Phoenix last night. The day before that,

1:02 we went down to Tucson. So, I've been

1:04 all over Arizona, but I'm leaving

1:06 Arizona today to go to Nevada. We're

1:08 going to Las Vegas, Nevada. You see the

1:11 sun coming off the side, the building

1:14 back there, shining in my eyes. That's

1:16 why I wear these sunglasses, cuz who

1:17 wants eye contact with the sun? Nobody

1:21 wants that. The reason I'm downtown. Do

1:23 you ever see the movie Psycho with

1:26 Alfred Hitchcock? He directed it. Alfred

1:28 Hitchcock, the classic, one of the

1:30 greatest directors of all times. You

1:31 might think he Adam's going to show you

1:33 the psycho house. I'm not going to show

1:35 you the psycho house. No. Norman Bates

1:38 action is actually going to happen here.

1:40 I like showing you guys the smaller,

1:42 more teenytiny, obscure things from

1:45 movies. Instead of the major stuff, I

1:47 always like showing you the stuff that

1:48 most people don't show you. And I can

1:50 guarantee most people online have never

1:52 showed you this before. Not only is

1:54 there the Bates Motel, there's also this

1:57 hotel right here, right here on the

1:59 corner of Jefferson. It's the old

2:01 Jefferson Motel Hotel. Does that look

2:04 familiar to you at all? That's where

2:06 Janet Lee had her lunch break. She was

2:08 having the affair with the guy right up

2:10 there. That's how the movie started,

2:12 right up in there. There was like a

2:14 bird's eyee view, like almost like a

2:15 helicopter shot, but they didn't

2:17 actually use the helicopter. Hitchcock

2:19 used his movie magic and made it seem

2:21 like a bird was fluttering around

2:24 downtown Phoenix. So just picture

2:26 yourself in the movie flying around and

2:28 perching right up there. One of those

2:30 rooms is where Marian Crane was at the

2:34 beginning of the movie. This is way

2:35 before Norman Bates made his appearance

2:38 in the movie. This is the beginning of

2:39 one of the classic horror films of all

2:42 time. So I hope you guys are excited.

2:44 Soon as the light turns green, I'm going

2:45 to cross over the road. We got a

2:47 walking. We got a walking sign here, but

2:50 over there it says no walking. The last

2:52 thing we want to do is intrude

2:54 across the road to the Hitchcock Hotel.

2:57 The first Hitchcock Hotel. Not the one

2:59 you know of with the and the shower

3:01 scene and all that. There was no showers

3:03 being taken here. Hopefully after their

3:05 illicit lunch break, they did take a

3:07 shower. If no one want Oh, that guy

3:09 almost got hit. See, that guy's trying

3:10 to cross the road right there. And that

3:12 car right there almost careened into

3:14 him. You know what? I think we're going

3:15 to go this way. Actually, we're not

3:17 going to go that way. I got 10 seconds

3:18 left on here. All this traffic is

3:20 passing by. People on their lunch

3:21 breaks. They are on their lunch breaks

3:23 also cuz it is lunchtime. I wonder if

3:25 anybody's going to go rent a room up

3:27 there and have a fantastic lunchtime

3:29 meeting with someone they're not married

3:31 to. That's not good. That's not a good

3:33 thing. But it it's movie magic. But that

3:36 happens in real life as well, I'm sure.

3:38 Anyway, I'm rambling on trying to cross

3:40 the road. I don't even know what I'm

3:41 trying to say. I got 10 seconds to cross

3:43 the road. Now we're down to 9 8 7 6 5 4.

3:54 We made it. We We barely made it. Let's

3:54 cross the road here. Course we're right

3:56 here by the airport.

3:59 Let's cross over.

4:01 So right up there right up there is

4:04 where all the movie magic happened from

4:06 the 1960s classic Alfred Hitchcock

4:09 Psycho.

4:11 It's now called the Barrister Place.

4:17 Here's the sign of what the hotel is now

4:17 called. Barrister Place, but it used to

4:19 be the Jefferson Hotel. I said Jefferson

4:22 Motel, but it's actually a hotel. It's a

4:24 step up. There's a Bates Motel, but

4:27 that's what's better than that is a

4:28 hotel right here. The Jefferson Hotel.

4:31 It's actually been placed on the Phoenix

4:33 historical list on the property

4:35 register. I tried opening the door and

4:37 going inside, but as we all know, it's

4:39 all locked right here. They're shunning

4:42 Alfred Hitchcock's classic movie. I was

4:44 going to go inside and try to find the

4:45 actual room, but it was actually shot on

4:47 a sound stage, I believe. But right up

4:49 there, the exteriors

4:51 straight up top. Look at that lion.

4:54 There's a lion head. See it right there?

4:56 See it? It's a lion head.

4:59 Scary lion. So, I'm here in Phoenix,

5:02 Arizona. Just wanted to show you guys

5:03 this. Maybe you could go online or pop

5:05 your DVD in or your Blu-ray. What's

5:08 better than watching a Blu-ray of the

5:09 classic Alfred Hitchcock classic?

5:14 It all started right here. Movie magic.

5:16 This movie changed a lot of people's

5:18 lives. A lot of movie makers that are

5:20 out there all got their start and their

5:22 inspiration by the master Alfred

5:24 Hitchcock. It all began right here. I

5:27 mean, Psycho wasn't his first movie, but

5:29 it was definitely the one that gave him

5:30 a lot of notoriety. I was a big fan of

5:32 the birds as well. Rear Window was

5:35 excellent. Of course, Psycho. Definitely

5:37 one of my favorite horror films. Not

5:39 really a horror film, but more of a

5:41 psychological crazy film and a brilliant

5:45 masterpiece by a filmmaker known as

5:47 Alfred Hitchcock.

5:53 I get across the road a little bit more.

5:53 I had a little brief stall there. I

5:54 didn't mean to confuse you. You thought

5:55 I was going to end the vlog blog, but

5:57 I'm not ending it now. I'm going to get

5:58 from this angle so you can see a little

6:00 bit different angle and you can see how

6:01 the hotel has changed. I don't want to

6:03 cut this short. Last thing we need is a

6:05 cut short psycho video. It's psycho.

6:11 It' be weird if I was running around. If

6:12 I was running around with a knife out

6:14 here, it would probably thwart me.

6:16 Actually, the bottom stairs of that

6:17 hotel is now a police museum, which has

6:20 now been closed. The the police museum's

6:22 actually been closed, so it's not even

6:23 there anymore. I'm going to let you go.

6:25 Make sure you subscribe all around.

6:27 Check down below for my t-shirts. Woo.

6:30 If you love psycho, give this video a

6:32 thumbs up. If you think I'm psycho, give

6:34 it a double thumbs up and leave a

6:36 comment below. Psychoticness here in

6:38 Phoenix, Arizona.
