The Reason

A cautionary tale set in a world focused on money, status, brands and excess; Patrick Bateman examines life devoid of meaning, lived by people who otherwise have everything.

“[American Psycho]…initiated because of my own isolation and alienation at a point in my life. I was living like Patrick Bateman. I was slipping into a consumerist kind of void that was supposed to give me confidence and make me feel good about myself but just made me feel worse and worse and worse about myself. That is where the tension of American Psycho came from…”

– Bret Easton Ellis
