The DVD says:

Oscar nominees Anthony Perkins (Friendly Persuasian), Meg Tilly (Agnes Of God), and Robert Loggia (Jagged Edge) star in this spine-tingling sequel written by Tom Holland (Fright Night, Thinner). It's twenty-two years later, and Norman Bates (Perkins) is coming home, having been declared sane by Dr. Bill Raymond (Loggia), but Marion Crane's sister, Lila Loomis (Vera Miles), doesn't believe it. Perkins and Miles recreate their roles from Alfred Hitchcock's classic shower shocker, as Norman's return and the arrival of Mary Samuels (Tilly) at the Bates Motel trigger a wave of brutal killings. Holland and director Richard Franklin (Road Games), who was invited by Hitchcock as a guest observer on the set of Topaz, pay affectionate homage to the original film's blend of horror and black humor.

My Opinion:

Not as good as the original, but nothing ever will be. Still it's a good story in it's own right and will keep you guessing till the end. Anthony Perkins is superb, returning to the role he made his own and Meg Tilly is fantastic as she befriends Norman. The DVD only has Production Notes and is very disappointing without a widescreen version of the movie.
