Few characters have personified an era as disturbingly as Patrick Bateman. AMERICAN PSYCHO gives us a monster for the late 20th century. Showing contemporary urban life through the eyes of a serial killer forcing readers to enter his mind and understand his motives that is both terrifying and chilling. Now almost ten years after the book was published "American Psycho's" provocative social commentary can be re-evaluated and appreciated. Its content is not as emotionally charged nor as literal as it once seemed. It can finally be confronted, this time in the form of a stunning social satire for the screen. |
