At first glance, Patrick Bateman is a normal, egomaniacal Wall Street yuppie, but behind the façade of the properly suave bon vivant lies a murderous abyss of hatred and sadism. To fill the emptiness of his existence, which is illuminated solely by status symbols, Patrick has turned to serial murder. His victims include young women in particular, but also the odd careless business partner. When he finds it increasingly difficult to distinguish between fantasy and reality, the police are called in.
