A thought-provoking film adaptation of a play that is itself a paraphrasing of American Psycho.

What makes it extremely interesting and worth to watch is that it is placing the original story in the framework of today's often cruel TV-shows, those that do not care about the methods, only about the effects.

Parallel with it, the film also suggests the responsibility of society itself, as the receptive agent of media products, a multitude sharing the act of committing media's sins by remaining silent or even becoming cooperative.

The film's imagery is intensive, shocking, sometimes even brutal and horrifying. It is capable to make us laugh loudly on the miserable nature of media reality, while surely no one will leave the theater untouched and without a bang in the head.

For me, the film is comparable to Bad Boy Bubby, in its crude beauty and naturalism, but also in its employing of both extremely comic and extremely tragic elements.
