Plot – Spoilers:
Patrick Bateman is an investment banker into ‘mergers and acquisitions’ or ‘murders and executions’ as he likes to call it. He has fantasies of killing people, mostly women, which he sometimes appears to act on.
The trigger for a killing could be a stray comment, an attitude to life he doesn’t approve of, or simply envy. We follow Bateman through his empty life where colleagues don’t even care to remember each other’s names – a vacuum Bateman attempts to fill through his murders and narcissistic indulgences. He also is most likely closeted gay and loves to expound on the intricacies of ’80s pop music – sadly for him, the only people he feels confident enough to do so with, are potential victims or hookers. Bateman is pleading to be punished and redeemed in a world that couldn’t be bothered enough to even chastise him.
Favorite Scene:
The Huey Lewis scene with the axe features a hilarious performance from Christian Bale apart from the ‘check em’ moment.
he is so insane I want him
Donations from Adolf Hitler and Field Marshal Mackensen to the new Protestant Church in Dortmund-Menged, 16 October 1937
“Establishing the true circumstances of the Fuhrer’s alleged donation.
The information from the evangelical weekly “Auf der Warte” about the grand opening of the church in Dortmund-Menged is correct. The Evangelical Society of the parish in Dortmund-Menged, by letter dated 16.10.37 from the Secretary of State and Head of the Reich Chancellery in Berlin, based on a petition to the Fuhrer and the Reich Chancellor, received the sum of 200 Reichsmarks as a donation for the newly built church in Dortmund-Nett. With this money, the parish society purchased altar lights.
Field Marshal von Mackensen presented a Bible with a handwritten inscription: “I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ.”
This is one of my favorite films of all times. Patrick, with his OCD and other problems, gives in to the excesses of his class. Excess leads to more excess until he’s out of control, and he is without guilt or punishment. There’s a reason the book ends with “This is not an exit”.
Is there anything Christian Bale can’t do? Another good one is The Machinist. He totally gives in to the role.
If you’re a Willem Defoe fan, he does a nightmarish film called Antichrist.
he is goddamn insane what is wrong with him
Came here for the meme, but to be honest it was a nice reflection about society. Can’t wait to read the book!!
sigma
Its one of my favorite horror movies. A must watch classic. The book has some fucked up scenes that are not in the movie. The book is considered as one of the most well written books ever.
oh my goy!!! its deh sigma movie!! so smegles and giga biga!!! based respect frum ohio lil bru
ooking for a way to create the character of Patrick Bateman, Christian Bale stumbled onto a Tom Cruise appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman (1993). According to co-writer and director Mary Harron, Bale saw in Cruise “this very intense friendliness with nothing behind the eyes,” and Bale subsequently based the character of Bateman on that. Interestingly, Tom Cruise is actually featured in the novel. He lives in the same apartment complex as Bateman, who meets him in an elevator and gets the name of Cocktail (1988) wrong, calling it “Bartender.”
Goofs
(at around 1h 21 mins) During Patrick’s killing spree towards the end of the movie, when he is running between the two nearly-identical buildings, a Canadian flag is intermittently visible flapping out from behind the building on the left, revealing that this scene was shot in the Toronto-Dominion Plaza, not in New York.
An accepted classic and on viewing one can see why.
Christian Bale is hot shit but the movie is a bit overrated
literally my favorite movie of all time. ive watched it like 7 times already. this man lives rent free in my head. also i like it when jared lato gets killed.
god i need him.
so to hell with good intentions, so to hell is where I’ll go!!!
but the devil makes accept-ions, for all American psychos!!!
HOLD MY CALLS, I’LL KILL THEM ALL!!!!!
I didnt just stare at it, I ate it.
ohio sigma skibidi toilet
Very smegma
dilf supremacy
I feel like a sigma now 🗿🍷
Omg this movie is so nostalgic. Seems like the average sadist on fetlife. It couldn’t have been seriously that easy to get away with murder but it was nice going down the rabbit hole and see played out what I imagine doing to every feminist and tranny. Is every cunt in corporate America a junkie??? What did he really do to the hooked where she would need surgery??? Why did they cut those parts out??? Sigh this should’ve been the into to the secretary lol
Licherally the dullest movie on this site….
Good movie but so much second hand embarassment
Garbage movie
Love this movie!

Alpha male movie… XP No, but seriously, gr8 movie !! Love all the performances/acting, it’s really nice. Recommanded !!
Also, much love to this site and it’s admins <3 !
Dude is lucky he fucked every bitch he killed almost everyone and at the end he got away
i dont get why people are so obsessed with this movie its nothing special
I have a question.
Do you like Ice Nine Kills?
::Not really::
Their early work was a bit too ‘scene’ for me but when ‘The Silver Scream’ came out, I really think they came into their own, commercially and artistically. Their whole album has a fine melodic sensibility that really makes it a cut above the rest…
HEY PAUL!!!!!
????????
who here likes enstars
The film that edgy incels love more than life itself.
you know you have very deep rooted mental issues when you find Patrick Bateman incredibly attractive
he’s very much hot
ten film to taka sraka ja pierdole !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1/10 za wlochatego chuja. rucham tom blondyne
Nothing is WORKING on this PIECE OF SHIT site!
You like Huey Lewis & The News?
I want to go to Dorsia
i’ll be following his skincare routine from now on
This movie is a classic, I’ll definitely have to watch it again soon.
Patrick Bateman is so fucking hot I want to do unspeakable things to him
do you think patrick shits a lot during the movie? i think he must with all the stuff he eats. can they show a director’s cut of hom on the toilet? maybe with grunting noise? and some farts? shit??????
i’m like Patrick Bateman but i love to shit
i shit myself watching this movie. loved it (shitting myself, not the movie.)
Nice addition.
holy shit his lawyer was soo good he covered for him by telling everyone that he had dinner with paul allen in london.. or everyone just confuses everyone with eachother that they dont honestly give a shit.. what a movie
Great movie! Please excuse me, I have to return the video tape! lol
I like this movie and story because its such an interesting social commentary on economics, the professional world, and Western society, you have to (should be) be really educated to enjoy this movie. Just like what the book says, I have no doubts there’s real people out there something like this – therefore its actually wise to be prepared and understand perspectives of the most brutal dog eat dog jackals of Western Society.
It certainly has disturbing moments, and I don’t approve of needless or excessive amounts of violence and gore, but that’s not essential to the whole narrative and plot. That was cruel shit stabbing the bum because Patrick’s co-worker forgot his name, lol, I can’t watch it, but I get it, the whole movie is this social commentary on these like outrageous, completely off the wall, “psychotic”, transgressive schemes. They perfectly captured that sentiment of wall street tough guys, that idea of these expert types that can randomly cite off some incredibly obscure knowledge – the music monologues were hilarious.
not only is this a great slasher, the ending adds a great doubtful eeriness that really shook me. i love that! this film is, of course, a classic. (christian bale is also very sexy in this movie, even if he is a serial killer.)
basically: dubs guy goes on murdering spree… or does he?
pussyshart
Closeted gay? Where the hell did that come from?! Especially after marathon fuck session with the two hookers and then how he feverishly washed his gloved hands after touching the closeted Luis Cruthers…. obviously in disgust.
Still, this is one of my all-time favorite movies… and a fantastic breakout roles for Christian Bale, one of the finest actors in Hollywood. And if you doubt what I’m saying you probably smell like cabbage and should watch The Machinist ASAP.
Fucking love this website, it was the only postive of finding a srbian film online lol. So glad you guys had this movie i hope this website lives foever
Super awsome movie !! >:^0
Love it so much (the acting, music choice, ,,,,), super good to see again.
I really love the staircase scene and Patrick/Luis-in-the-toilets scene !! >:^]
Read the book, you had to be over 18 to buy it because of the graphic content. This movie was a bit tame compared to the book but I loved it. Well acted, funny in parts and just goes to prove you dont need a shitload of blood and guts to make a great film. Thanks to EUM for posting this, you guys are awesome.
I didn’t understand if he did the murders or just thought all or most of this up?
Great movie, even greater book, thanks for another classic, Effed.
Thank you so much brother!!!
