Who Said It: Shia LaBeouf or Norman Bates?

Even the most sane men go a little mad sometimes, but some decide they like how it feels and decide to wear it like a giant garbage bag with holes for our arms and head. Shia LaBeouf seems to still be wearing his Hefty brand sport jacket thanks to his outbursts at press conferences, his public outburst outside of a Broadway theater and his crazy interview with the aptly named Interview Magazine. Some of his bizarre responses reminded us of another crazy person who had an inordinate connection to his mother, “Psycho” killer Norman Bates. See if you can tell the difference between the serial killer with the psycho looks and the serial psycho with the killer looks. (Answer key at the bottom)
