What happens

Alfred Hitchcock: The Art of Making Movies, also known as The Art of Alfred Hitchcock or Hitchcock's 3-D Theater, was a part–3-D film, part–live-action show at Universal Studios Florida, and one of the theme park's original attractions. Directed by Susan Lustig and sponsored by Kodak, the attraction commemorated Alfred Hitchcock's 43-year association with Universal Studios. It featured attacks from birds similar to Hitchcock's film The Birds in the pre-show area and featured the famous shower scene from Psycho in the main show with narration by Anthony Perkins, who played Norman Bates in the latter film. It closed on January 3, 2003 and was replaced by Shrek 4-D later that year. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
