This movie is hilarious. The best buddy of Norman Bates inherits his motel, I was waiting for the moment he would go crazy and start killing people. Instead the first 45 minutes orso, is him renovating the place, looking all quirky.

The big reveal of the movie is that the banker pretends he is the mother, so he can build appartments or something and demolish the motel. I may be wrong on some details here cuz I didn't care too much, but it was really unbelievably funny how there was nothing really going on, until more towards the end with a woman who sees a bunch of people who killed themselves.

Really weird movie! Seeing how it was intended to become a TV-show, it makes a lot of sense and really feels like a somewhat okay pilot, with the mandatory introductions of all the characters.

In a way it's too bad this didn't get a full season, to see where it would lead to, but as a standalone movie, with nothing but introductions and laying a foundation for a show, it's hilarious.
