Can anyone suggest some possible substitutions I can use to get a take on the Psycho movie poster?
I need both a version of the thinline movie typeface and a block lettering I can use to somewhat recreate this. The tear through the lettering of course is not important.
This is a pretty informal thing I need to design quickly though--reasonably close approximations of what I can use for this is more than fine.
Thanks!
i like this very much... where can I get it!?
Try Compacta for the "PSYCHO" text.

Adobe Sans super squoosed for the sans.
I actually created a whole font "Psycho (1960).ttf" based on just the 6 cracked letters of the movie logo. Have a look at this example and tell me what you think. 
Hey. Stevie. Baby.
Where is that example we are supposed to have a look at?
