Strangers on a Train (Two-Disc Special Edition)Strangers on a Train (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Buy new: $24.49 / Used from: $4.49
A great movie. Easily one of Hitchcock's best. Great photography and acting, especially by the villain, who manages to be haunting to the level of the classic Norman Bates.
SpellboundSpellbound
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $10.53
The plot has since been repeated many times, but Spellbound is gripping, mysterious, and boasts creepy dream sequences by Salvador Dali. Also, Gregory Peck is at his best with a role that equals or tops his role in To Kill a Mockingbird.
RebeccaRebecca

The only of Alfred Hitchcock's films to win best picture, Rebecca is very suspenseful and has great twists along the way.

One of the few that Hitchcock wrote himself. Great cinematography and acting. This film boasts the most suggestive kissing scene of its time.
Shadow of a DoubtShadow of a Doubt

Hitchcock's great action movie. I've got to stress the greatness. Memorable scenes from start to finish and suspenseful conflict make this a classic.
Psycho (Collector's Edition)Psycho (Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $12.49 / Used from: $8.50
AFI holds this as the best horror movie of all time. This is the granddaddy of murder thrillers, and though it's a little cheesy now, it still is fun and suspenseful.
RopeRope
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $10.96
An experimental film that looks like it takes place in one room and in one long shot. Though cuts are pretty obvious, this movie is extremely dark and very entertaining.

Buy new: $17.98 / Used from: $0.98
Another story that has been ripped off at least five times in the last ten years, but still a great movie. Definitely the best of Hitchcock's early British films.

Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $4.51
Only Alfred Hitchcock could make a movie completely taking place in one boat exciting. A very good movie.
