american psycho is really good, the point of the gore wasnt to be scary, theres layers to the movie and it's best you dont look at it with a superficial attitude. the movie is largely a critique of the "shallow and vicious aspects of capitalism," its not a waste of time if you consider that the characters are predominantly concerned with material gain and superficial appearances, traits indicative of a postmodern world in which the 'surface' reigns supreme. also it may be r18 cause of the sexual content.has anyone watched american psycho? I watched it a few days ago and I was so pissed. Genuinely felt like a waste of time. still dont get to this day why the movie is r18. like wth is that violence . plot was kinda confusing but more eerie I guess, I was just constantly scared that there was gonna be a scary scene but there never was . tbh, after watching the boys, my mind has just been desensitised to gore/violence.
Has anyone also seen The silence of the lambs? Never watched it but always wanted to.
