Hitchcockian /ˌhɪtʃˈkɒkɪən /adjectiveResembling or characteristic of the style of the English film director Sir Alfred Hitchcock, especially through the use of tension and suspense: a Hitchcockian crime thriller...- What they couldn't see, but we could, was that there were only two screws left out of six holding the thing together—very Hitchcockian.
- The opening scenes look very Hitchcockian: the film has a quite brilliant moment of suspense as the wife's trusty dog realises there is something wrong and, barking frenziedly, jumps aboard the rowing boat.
- I didn't expect what I heard a little later, either, and think I might have preferred the silence or even a Hitchcockian cacophony of birds.
