    According to the director, Bateman did kill Paul Allen, but everyone thinks he's still alive because they keep mixing him up with other wall street guys.

    What you saw at 38:00 was a psychopath encountering another psychopath. The lady owns that apartment, and she knows the price of it would plummet if people found out a lot of people were killed in it, so she covers it up, paints the whole place and then tries selling it as if nothing ever happened. When Patrick asked about Paul she got suspicious so she asked him about the supposed ''ad'' to test if he was the killer.
    When she tells him ''i think you should go now'' and ''don't come back'' it's basically her way of saying ''i know it was you and it's best if you stay away from this place so i can sell it''.

      In the complete scene at 17:56 you see two versions one with the trail of blood the other without the obliviousness of the night concierge and his indifference another clue that its in his head and not real imo he has fantasies and uses fruit or meats and bone as substitutes. The speaking out loud with his reflection in the mirror, the ATM messaging, the absurdity of the explosions with the police and old lady, the security guard death in one scene and the other he pulls out a pen as the true reality of what he has in his possession. As for the flat i can only imagine he wrecked it and clearly no bodies were found and the assumption the property owner was an accessory to the fact is not based in reality.
      My theory he was using cranberry juice and was acting out the fantasies of dispatching those in his life. It reached a point in his life all the pressure, and delusions, illusions the psychosis, insufferableness and narcissim he managed to convince himself that he was a psychopath.
      However he was merely acting out his fantasies and lost touch with reality due to the illegal and legal highs and his desires and daily battles of one-upmanship which to him was everything because he wanted to fit in so badly. Other than his clique, outsiders confused him with someone else and when they did refer to him in the past tense it was with a dismissive and mocking tone as a dork and a loser a boring spinless lightweight.
      And yet his fiance reminds him that he hates his job despite his obessession to fit in and inferiority complex.
      Was Bateman's circle the outsiders that were never really recognised by the top crew that everyone envied, adored and copied? And was he the dweeb of that very same forgettable crew that always wanted to fit in with the in crew the top crew ?
      We never knew what the presribed meds were for or were they used to hide the fact that it was nothing more than a container to store his illegal highs.
      This reminds me of the insular and cut throat world of finance, the hedge funds, bankers, brokers and high echelons of Wall Street and Big Pharma.

      ​@@SedriqMiersTo add to that, his fiance said that his dad owns the company. That would also influence his inferiority complex and need to fit in to prove that he isn't there simply out of nepotism. That also adds to why the other guys speak of him so poorly. They just see him as a daddy's boy.
      Another thing. The only one of the group that actually recognized and respected him was a man that he not only was betraying by cheating on his fiance with his girlfriend, but he also was the source of his secret affection which is also emasculation in such times and that lifestyle.

    The reason Patrick makes a bunch of references to Trump is because in the book, Patrick is obsessed with Donald Trump, which is why he dresses exactly like Trump in the 90s with the trench coat, slicked hair and red power tie as a business man in Manhatten

      Exactly. Except it takes place 1987-88. All the cultural references are from that period. Trump had burst onto the scene in those years styling himself as a business genius and was the model for the Wall street yuppies. He had the expensive Brooks Brothers wardrobe and usually wore pinstripe suits.

    since there seems to be a misunderstanding in the comments and elsewhere as to what "sigma" means. alpha's lead, beta's follow, sigma's have no desire to lead and no inclination to follow. so they do their own thing. neither this bateman character, nor 98% of those who identify as sigma's, actually are. some wish they were alpha's, which means they DO have desire to lead, they just cant find any followers. and those who follow trends of any sort, obviously follow. it seems like a simple enough issue, yet few in this society properly grasp it. a beta, who long's to be an alpha, cant be a sigma. and killing people doesnt constitute "doing your own thing". there is nothing whatsoever about being sigma in this film, and those who believe otherwise completely miss various points.

    This was supposed to be a Dark Comedy, a satire of the rich Wall Street elites of the 80s, people who care more about status and wealth than humanity. Aside from that, Bateman was indeed a murdered, the ending makes it seem like it was all inside his head, but he indeed killed Paul Allen, the killings weren’t fantasy (except the cat scene and police shootout) the book makes it clear.

      I've never seen him put out a good performance tbh, he's the weak link in everything I've seen him in (and I've seen all those you mentioned except for Requiem).
      He just seems to like overacting and to play up to 11 whatever gimmick the character has, for example in Blade Runner 2049 he was laughable and ruined every moment he was in, in my opinion.
      So I would have no issue calling him a bad actor.
      But everyone can have their moment and I'm sure he turned out something decent here or there, I have yet to run into it, though.

    Little tip for ya, Dollface. If you interrupt your own viewing/reaction to mess with the video settings, go back a bit to make sure you don't miss anything like Patrick's reaction to Paul Allen's card (literally the most iconic part of the film that everyone wants to see in a reaction) or how bewildered he was looking at his gun after he somehow blew up the cop car with it. Which adds to the already questionable nature to the things he's been able to do.

    You keep using the term 'sigma-males.' This is a commentary on how the enormously wealthy, nepotistic stockbroker yuppies of the era are all actually hedonistic psychos with zero empathy for others. It's a satire of class, not gender, especially considering the portrayal of Evelyn and Courtney are about as narcissistic and fake and empty as he is. Though the twist in this story is that Bateman's psychopathy is ramped up to being a literal murderous cannibal, the point remains.
    10:57 - 11:25 Of course you agree with it; it's the kind of rhetoric every celebrity and social climber has used for the past 50 years, and the people saying it are just as sincere as Bateman. Bret Easton Ellis wrote this novel after hanging out with a bunch of vapid, wealthy socialites like this, and that's the kind of conversations they have; that's where his inspiration came from.
    I've always felt the fact of whether or not Patrick imagined the killings or not to be up for debate. The realtor could've been just covering up the murder to keep up the value of the property, the lawyer could've mistaken one of the other businessmen for Paul Allen, as these rich yuppies so often do throughout the film, but it ultimately doesn't change the ending either way: Patrick suffers no consequences, so he will continue to gain no self-knowledge and live an utterly fake, meaningless life.
