Since the Master of Suspense made more classics than you can count in one sitting, it makes sense that he'd have a massive and fiercely loyal cult following. And the cult's not just made up of artsy types who devotedly attend summer screenings of Hitch films in indie theaters. Nor is it just made up of techies who ooh and aah over film restorations and eagerly await silent film re-releases, either.

Nope. The Hitch cult is a much bigger and more inclusive happy family.

Don't believe us? Head to the big and beautiful Hitchcock Wiki for proof. And here's North by Northwest's very own wiki in case you have a hard time finding it amid all the distractions and attractions of the wild, weird, wonderful Wiki overall. Take it from us: you can spend whole days wandering within that site full of trivia, stills, rumor mills, and other delights. You'll find more Hitch-related fun facts trivia than you thought could exist, and plenty of salacious gossip for the US Weekly readers among you. (We know you're out there.)

There's also a rival site for die-hard Hitch fans called The Hitchcock Zone. This one leads you to blogs and other fan sites dedicated to the work of the Master. Their sheer number will impress and let you gauge the extent of Hitch's outsized, worldwide influence.

For the nerdiest among you, never fear. The worldwide association of Hitch devotees reaches deep into the groves of academia. Hitchcock's films gave rise to some of the definitive texts of film studies. Handy collections of essays like this one and this one feature key texts in the ever-expanding field of Hitchcock studies. We told you: there's truly something for everyone under the great big umbrella of His Royal Hitchness.
