DESCRIPTION:
Patrick Bateman (Christian
Bale) is a Wallstreet yuppie, obsessed with success, status and style,
with a stunning fiancé (Reese Witherspoon). He is also a psychotic
killer who rapes, murders and dismembers both strangers and acquaintances
without provocation or purpose. Based on the controversial novel by Bret
Easton Ellis, the film offers a sharp satire to the dark side of yuppie
culture in the 80's, while setting forth a vision that is both terrifying
and chilling.
