10 Most Paused Movie Scenes of All Time

Psycho (1960)

Psycho is a masterpiece horror film from the 60s. If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t know what peeing in the pants feels like. The film’s eerie portrayal of Norman Bates defined horror to new heights. In one of the scenes, Bates is arrested and led away to jail; he pauses mid-step and stares directly into the lens – viewers can faintly see a skull imprinted onto his face. Damn scary!
