Grisly and disturbing satirical black comedy based on the controversial novel by Bret Easton Ellis. It follows the murderous misadventures of a well-to-do New York yuppie working for his father's Wall Street company who revels in psychotic violence. Christian Bale gives a sterling performance, accompanied by Willem Dafoe, Jared Leto, Reese Witherspoon, Chloe Sevigny and Josh Lucas.

A wealthy New York investment banking executive hides his alternate psychopathic ego from his co-workers and friends as he escalates deeper into his illogical, gratuitous fantasies.
