Rihanna recreates iconic ‘Psycho’ shower scene on ‘Bates Motel’ series

In the fifth season of “Bates Motel,” fans were finally treated to the iconic character of Marion Crane, the woman who, in Psycho, was murdered in the infamous shower scene.

On Monday night, fans were excited not only to see the iconic character return to the screen but also to see how Rihanna would interpret her.

When the shower scene kicked off, it looked like we were going to get the Psycho murder scene that made Marion Crane famous, complete with the character of Norman watching her shower through a peephole. As the suspense built, Marion thought she heard a sound outside, but then the scene changed from its Psycho counterpart.

Deciding she’d had enough of this creepy place, Rihanna’s Marion stepped out of the shower and declared, “Screw this s - - t,” before leaving, proving once again that Rihanna makes everything that much better when she’s a part of it.

But fans still got a shower stabbing scene, just not the one they were expecting. Norman ended up confronting Marion’s cheating boyfriend, Sam, and stabbing him to death in the shower, complete with the blood on the tiles as well as the shot of Sam’s unmoving hand.
