Janet Leigh was the female in the shower scene. Psycho was released in 1960 and director Alfred Hitchcock considered it one of his most popular films but not his personal favorite.
Although much copied, the original horror movie with the shower scene and knife was Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. The scene showed Janet Leigh's character getting stabbed to death in the shower by what appears to be an elderly woman. This scene is consider a classic horror / suspense film in cinema. Innovations included interesting camera angles and a tense musical score.
