100% Bret Easton Ellis. One of the few films made by Roger Avery, 1/2 of the creative genius behind Pulp Fiction. You'd expect this to be a marriage of the two. It has a tremendous amount in common with A Clockwork Orange in terms of editing and character development. Also, if the psychotic nature of the main character Sean gave you flashbacks to American Psycho, that's because he actually is supposed to be Patrick Bateman's younger brother. This is a film about sex that is empty, cynical and depraved. However, with BEE, you get what you signed up for. Go for the ride, if you can handle it.
