Watched American Psycho again. Questions:
Is it real or a dream? Parts of me think that it was real but not quite as the movie tells us, for example I doubt the escorts were as hot, I doubt he was killing people whilst wearing nice clothes etc but that was all apart of his fantasy. For example, why has no one heard a chainsaw throughout the whole building? Why hasn't the security guard seen blood trailing when he drags Paul Allens dead body through the lobby? Then again, I have never read the book so I don't know if it gives you a better understanding, maybe I should read it.
And what's with the whole Paul Allen thing and him actually being in London? Is that just mistaken identity which happens through out the whole film or does it indeed prove that the whole thing really was a dream in Batemans head?
Were the drawings in his diary what we saw all along throughout the film? Just coming to life inside Batemans head, thus showing us what we saw on the screen?
Regarding his outbursts too, (where he says he'd kill the asian lady, shouts at the bar girl etc) are those just things he's saying in his head, hence hardly any reactions from anyone? or are people just so self-obsessed that they don't really care or listen (sort of leaning towards that as the asian lady did sort of react)?
The fudge happened to Allens apartment?
