Quote:
"[In American Psycho Mary] Harron replaces much of the book's endless lists of consumer products and minute descriptions of Bateman's murders with dark-humored social satire. The connection between 1980s Yuppie consumerism and serial murder is vividly established during the film's titles when what appears to be blood dripping is actually drops of red berry sauce drizzled onto elegant cuisine on a dinner plate."
