We’re back and better than ever! Our theme this month is horrible men in horror, and of course we couldn’t do this film without talking about the 2000 classic ‘American Psycho’, directed by Mary Harron. 👔🪓

In this episode, we discuss how different demographics have interpreted this film over the years: incels and finance bros have idolised Bateman, most women have recognised it as a campy satire of masculinity, and queer people have read Bateman as a closeted gay man. We also discuss gender, sexuality, consumerism, capitalism, liberalism and the ‘Batemanization’ of American politics.
