I watched an old VHS copy a billion years ago from my library of this. Now it's on youtube. For some reason it stayed with me. It's a typical coming of age story complete with a boogeyman plot but I don't know there's something special about it. Anthony Perkins plays the psychotic title role. Yeah he was typecast because he was so good at it. This is about a boy drifter who befriends another wanderer Perkins. He has to think of whether he is going to stay with the family who takes him in or not. I even read the book this was based on although I think the movie got it down better.
