24 Years Later, A Great American Thriller is Getting a Wildly Unnecessary Remake
Briefly

"The film remains a shockingly nuanced movie about a soulless money-obsessed yuppie of the 1980s, Patrick Bateman, who is also a literal murderer."
"The strength of the movie is that it defied misreading. Bateman was a monster, and the movie was a dark horror/comedy about that titular monster."
"In casting and directing American Psycho, Mary Harron basically invented Christian Bale... gave audiences the kind of deranged anti-hero that other 'dark' Hollywood movies have been chasing ever since."
"We don't need [the remake] and there's literally nothing that Guadagnino and screenwriter Scott Z. Burns can bring to this concept that will be better, or more transgressive than the original."
