Product Information

but the guys on the trading floor, when I arrived there before making the film, I got there and a bunch of 'em, they were going ‘oh yeah, we love Patrick Bateman’. The fact that people in positions of power and affluence could sympathize and even "love" Bateman's character proves that there's a larger problem beneath the surface.

Though I don't think it is a great movie, Harron's version of 'American Psycho' is definitely superior to the novel. He killed 23 people in the movie and murdered over 50 in the book, changing the American Psycho meaning to something even darker. Certain items can take longer to source than the estimated week, particularly during busy trading periods and may take longer to arrive at ourwarehouse.

Through its brilliant cinematic narrative, American Psycho explained real-life corporate greed through the much more visceral and relatable elements of raw, unhinged violence. When Cassandra reveals that her affair with Professor Starkman has guaranteed her the teaching assistant position, Rachael decides to murder her as well, staging her death as a suicide. The real Racheal was an orphan, so when Racheal claimed to be her, there was no one to disprove her claim. It certainly wasn't because 'Psycho's anti-hero Patrick Bateman was a serial killer fond of sexually assaulting and chopping up beautiful young women.It's too calculated to be truly offensive -- instead it's just boring, which in many ways is the worst kind of exploitation.
