Psycho (film) Font

Psycho is a 1960 American horror thriller film directed by Alfred Hitchcock. The movie follows a secretary who embezzles money from her employer, goes on the run, and finds herself at a secluded motel run by a young man and his mother with a dark secret.

Tony Palladino's iconic title for "Psycho" first appeared on the book cover of Robert Bloch's 1959 novel, which was later adapted into the film. Hitchcock purchased the lettering rights for the movie promotion, and Saul Bass's opening credits were influenced by Palladino's design, depicting the protagonist's homicidal madness with stark white letters on a black background. The closest matching font for the title is Compacta, designed by Fred Lambert for Letraset in 1963.
