    CLIP DESCRIPTION:
    Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale) discusses one of his favorite songs from Huey Lewis & the News, and then murders Paul Allen (Jared Leto) with an axe.
    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    Bret Easton Ellis's dark and violent satire of America in the 1980s is brought to the screen in this unsettling drama with blackly comic overtones. Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale), the son of a wealthy Wall Street financier, is pursuing his own lucrative career with his father's firm. Bateman is the prototypical yuppie, obsessed with success, fashion, and style. He is also a serial killer who murders, rapes, and mutilates both strangers and acquaintances without provocation or reason. Donald Kimble (Willem Dafoe), a police detective, questions Bateman about the disappearance of Paul Allen (Jared Leto), whom Patrick murdered several days earlier. As Kimble stays on Bateman's trail, Bateman's mask of studied, distant cool begins to fall apart. American Psycho also features Reese Witherspoon as Bateman's girlfriend, as well as Samantha Mathis, Chloe Sevigny, and Guinevere Turner; the latter also co-authored the screenplay. Controversy followed the production from the start, when speculation that Leonardo Di Caprio would play Bateman sparked concerns that he would lure preteens to an R-rated movie. Di Caprio soon bowed out of the project, and original leading man Bale was reinstated. Later, a group of Toronto residents attempted to block filming in that city after Canadian serial killer Paul Bernardo claimed that Ellis's novel inspired his murder spree.

      You can tell by the way the axe just glistens and shines while resting elegantly upon the floor that you will die in style. The solid light birch handle gives it the perfect balance of style, sophistication, and masculinity while maintaining its function as a tool to tame the harshest of wildernesses. Empires have been built and destroyed with pieces like this.

      The book is so much worse... I read it in highschool before the movie's release. The book's content resulted in my avoidance of the movie for a looooong time even though gore, violence, etc. had little impact on me in those days. I loved reading disturbing horror (still do, especially Junji Ito) and could handle blood, guts, and violence in film or television (now it depends on context). Yet despite my strong stomach this book made me feel *deeply* uncomfortable. The torture/death scenes were *beyond* disturbing and I _did not_ want to see them onscreen.
      Eventually I realized certain parts of the book couldn't be in a movie with an "R" rating, even considering America's comfort with gratuitous violence (no offense intended: I'm 'Merican myself).
      When I watched the movie I found it to be surprisingly hilarious! The onscreen violence and disturbing moments were nothin' compared to countless passages in the book (the sewer rat scene, the chainsaw torture while the woman stays conscious, cannibalism, the car battery hooked up to Christine, necrophilia... there's a lot more but I'll stop here).
      Bale was *amazing* in the film: menacing and funny at the same time, and also able to switch between the two in an instant. I'm glad his role wasn't written _or_ performed so he'd simply be a live version of the book's Bateman.
      Edited because: i duz spelin an Grammer realy reely gud.! 🙃

    I think it’s universally accepted that Bale is a generational level actor, but when I heard that he ad-libbed that incredibly perfect goofy dance move into the scene.. I was just blown away. First off, try doing it in the mirror. Quick fact: You can’t. You’ll be able to do the motion, but it will look clunky. This guy just came outta nowhere with this and did it flawless lol. So perfect to the character too

      I think Paul was doomed the moment he set foot in Patrick's apartment, but it's an interesting reading. The novel plays a lot more with Patrick's emotional lability, his inappropriate emotional reactions in various situations. The film really highlights this in the business card scene, when he is profoundly unsettled by Paul Allen's card. In the book there are many more examples and his emotions run the gamut from anger to terror. So it would be in character for him to kill someone for thinking Huey Lewis and the News is only okay.

    This is one of the most violent murders I’ve ever seen in a movie, and there’s not really any gore. It’s all in the build up and the “execution” (sorry, pun alert) but the way he’s explaining the reasons he likes “fore!” And “hip to be square” because it’s got a layered cynical commentary in it while smiling and putting his raincoat on is purely psychotic. The screamed lines as he hits him with the axe is just another example of why Christian bale is one of the best actors of all time. Oh and the little twist he does when he says “hip to be square” just completely makes it.

    For me the scariest part of this scene is after he kills Allen and takes off the raincoat, sits down, adjusts his hair and smokes his cigar. There’s none of the anger, but also none of the fake friendliness and charm he was projecting earlier throughout the scene. There’s literally nothing, he goes completely blank. He simply is not there.

    When Morbious came out in '22, I think Sony really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole movie has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the movie a big boost. It’s been compared to Citzen Kane, but I think Morbious has a far more memeworthy, dank sense of humor.
