American Psycho Redux


Christian Bale
as 
Patrick Bateman

Rewatched American Psycho this weekend. Hadn't seen it in forever. I like to revisit movies I liked when I was younger later in life to see how my life experience changes my perception of them. I found the film hilarious at 58. Something that my 20 years younger less experienced self didn't really get.

Not to mention Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman was HAF🔥

Happy Monday!

Hump Day & Chill

Killer Looks
Patrick Bateman

Tis the season to get scary, thus I thought we should Hump Day & Chill to a hunk of a certain genre. That's correct Minions we are going all out horror this week with Patrick Bateman straight outta American Psycho.

Seriously though, you could see why Patrick's dirty deeds could go undetected. With his charm, good looks and charisma to burn all you really want to do is ______ well, you know what to fill that blank in with I'm sure!

Patrick wields an axe with the ease of a pro baseball player batting at the home plate (as seen above.) Then gets home and strips down to nothing but his tighty whities (as seen below) for an intense work out to chill...killer! (literally)

Killer Body
Patrick Bateman

All this and more make Patrick Bateman the psycho of your dreams, but the real question is: can he cook?

Hump Day & Chill at the link below and find out for your bad self...

Coming Soon: The Canyons


It's been a while since Lindsay Lohan looked like a bona fide movie star, seeing the trailer for her latest "The Canyons" is the first time that has happened on film in a while (she looked like one a few times at her numerous court appearances, but those do not count).

Ms. Lohan seems to have found the perfect role to match the public perception of her. In the film she plays the way over everything, translation beyond jaded,"Tara" whose opening dialogue in the trailer nails the character: "When's the last time you went to see a movie in the theater?" Tara says of movies at the trailer's outset. "I don't know. You know, I guess maybe it's just not my thing anymore." 

She co-stars with Porn Star James Deen as "Christian" - the actual storyline is not revealed in the teaser (tease being the operative word) but what one can gather is it involves a love triangle, drugs, homemade porn and is an ode to a world where nobody has a private life anymore.

This being stated it is also from the mind of Bret Easton Ellis, who is responsible for two of my favorite books/movies "American Psycho" & "Less Than Zero". So you know what you are going to be in for something sordid and dark.

Also along for the ride is renowned master of the underbelly of society Paul Schrader who is responsible for "Taxi Driver" and "Hardcore" and a personal favorite the remake of the 1942 horror film "Cat People" with Malcolm McDowell & Nastassja Kinski - which re-imagined the legend of the Cat People as an erotic fantasy. 

Of course people are now pronouncing Lohan's career one step away from porn, uh this is utter hogwash. "Yes" she is starring in an extremely edgy indie project and yes it will be fairly explicit, but so were the films I mentioned above and you did not hear anyone saying that about the actors involved in those projects. I would rather see her in something looking like her own movie star and connecting with a character that she understands than doing a poor imitation of one, who she obviously understands, but can't hold a candle to, "Liz & Dick" anyone? Yeah, I thought not.

Also, yes I have seen the latest release of the publicity generating NSFW photos showing Deen's penis (no one's ever seen that before) and Lohan's breasts, again what would you expect from the combining of this writer/director team? This is their area of expertise and the type of film they know how to deliver.

I for one can't wait to take a trip to "The Canyons"!
