It's been 21 years since AMERICAN PSYCHO graced the silver screen, and with both genders on the case, we discuss whether the film is misogynistic, a satire on male masculinity and vanity, or satire on the entire yuppie culture of the 80s. We also analyse Patrick Bateman, try to see what makes him tick. You can find us on Twitter and Instagram @scaringsampod, and get in touch at [email protected].

What's up, revellers and weirdos! 1982 had an incredible line-up of movie releases, including this week's subject, POLTERGEIST. Steven Spielberg produced and the late, great Tobe Hooper directed this benchmark ghost story. Probably not wise to watch when house hunting. Just sayin'.
