i love you
i am so glad i sent a request for this ages ago
And you guys also forgot about one thing it was also based on Donald Trump. I guess that was a little political.
James, if you are reading this:
Your wife did an amazing job with the kill count!
"I'm going to have to press doubt on that one" did she just make a LA Noir reference 🤣 nice 🤙
James is getting so good at acting. It's like a different person is hosting the show.
I like how he grew out his hair.
I like how he grew out his hair.
@@harpuavids he also lost weight, good on him
@@wingman4208 Who knew he went through puberty again? His voice is very different!
He should be in more stuff, the look-see didn’t give him much credit for his incredible acting
Christian Bale going from Bateman to Batman is crazy
all he did was remove an "e"
I like to imagine that its a direct sequel, makes it a lot more fun.
@@CarrionKnight what…..
@@Nature-556 Yeah, I watch batman and the dark knight rises back to back so that I can imagine Patrick batemen as Bruce Wayne, it actually makes sense considering how batman acts.
Patrick batman
i always hate when people critique movies as being misogynist when half the time THATS THE WHOLE POINT!!! they're not endorsing misogyny they're showing a bad person and/or morally grey person acting that way!! media literacy is unfortunately very uncommon these days.
Exactly!
Portraying something in any way, shape or form is not the same as endorsing or condoning it
You mean common? Because while true, it's more common than you'd think. Everyone who pointed out that the Barbie movie is feminist trash is right, but only half-right. However, the lefties who praised it failed their own media literacy test. As it turns out, Barbie is a botched attempt at marrying feminist themes with humanist themes.
@@Aidan_He very true, but some could argue his reaction, disgusted/repulsed, could be homophobic. but i don’t agree. as a gay man, women can repulse me, but that doesn’t mean i’m a misogynist.
Same goes with people on UA-cam shorts praising Patrick Bateman as some cool alpha male type dude they should inspire to be like. People who clearly never saw the movie and clearly don't know you're not suppose to root for him.
and he's not even a "sigma alpha bro" he's a dweeb who is desperately trying to fit in with society lmaooo
Christian Bale running butt ass naked with a chainsaw (in an apartment nonetheless) is still one of the wildest/funniest things I’ve ever seen in a movie 😂
He definitely killed some people but that’s how you know most of this shit was in his head
that and he drops the chainsaw on his victim who was almost on the bottom floor
The homeless guy is the easiest kill to cover up, especially for a rich stock broker with business connections and a father in his company.
Other than that, he probably started fantasizing about doing it to people who would be harder to cover up, but knew he couldn't pull it off.
You should watch the film ‘No Hard Feelings’, it has probably the funniest scene I’ve ever seen in my life. Without major spoilers it takes place on a beach!
The perfect movie for Chelsea to debut a kill count on, there’s no denying that this was easily one of Christian Bale’s top performances for a film, and that says a lot
Been a long time since I last saw you, glad you back!
Find some hobbies
My favorite performance is summed up in one phrase: OH GOOOOOD FOR YOUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!
@@balabanasireti apparently being everywhere and commenting on UA-cam is his hobby.

Do you like Dead Meat? Their early work was a little too new media for my taste. But when Halloween (2018) KILL COUNT came out in '19 I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The video has a clear, crisp look and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the kills a big boost. James and Chelsea have been compared to FoundFlix, but I think Dead Meat has a far more cynical sense of humor.
A masterpiece
This is my favorite horror recap channel, followed by yours😂
A horror history
Oh my God, it even has a watermark
Hey James!
I love that he's thrown off so much by ✨homosexual activities✨ that he forgot to murder.
Which scene(s)?
@@thebigmeme505815:02
It's literally the equivalent of yelling "Harder daddy" when being hit
*Sexual harassement
he doesn't like me
Chelsea's delivery of, "No not bone meat, you hot idiot", was perfect haha.
Yeah, Al's death is probably one of the most disturbing scenes ever put in a horror film. It's not overtly gory or explicit or anything but...making the man cry about his situation, then murdering him and his dog is just the epitome of cruel.
But atleast they will be happy in death together. Cant leave the dog without the owner.
Yeah, that was pretty fucked up.
The book version is far far far more explicit and cruel too 🙃
@@hairyson94 books usually are and better than the movies. Good to know!
@@stanclark8824 ummmm yes, keeping a dog alive is better than killing it
Murdering Jared Leto is probably the most relatable thing Patrick Bateman did
This movie is actually a reacurring dream that Bruce Wayne had.
@@JBoxy7 basically what Bruce thinks if he kills the joker
Patrick Bateman is just overall a really relatable character
@@trisk4806 I beg your pardon he's a murdering and probable millionaire you missed the entire point of the movie dude
@@trisk4806…
It’s so cool how Patrick says “Murders and Executions mostly” when asked what do u do but he ac does Mergers and Acquisitions
Something interesting about the book is that unlike the movie he doesn't kill the model from the club and even seems to take pity on her after her boyfriend insults her and he even tells her to leave.
Its my head cannon that Patrick looks like the stereotypical dork but imagines himself as a handsome Christian bale
It honestly makes sense if we are taking Chelsea's first theory, canon... Cause otherwise I genuinely don't understand how ANYONE would assume a person that handsome to be a dork.
But I am 99% sure, that the dork, people confuse Patrick with, is Louis.
I like to think he has overdeveloped abs and otherwise is just skinny.
I mean you go you but honestly it’s probably not canon
That’s a good takeaway, but why would women fan-girl over him throughout the movie
Me too! I thought I was alone
The business card scene is absolutely perfect, not only is the word acquisitions spelled wrong on all of them. Everyone in the office gives the wrong information about the font, the color, and even the texture. This really shows up in Bateman's scene where he looks at Paul Allen's card because get this, None of what he says about the card is right, this scene shows exactly what the book could never cover, the insane Ego of all these men who don't even understand what to be proud of.
Couldn’t have put it better
The acquisition thing actually proof of the Mandela effect.
Ask anyone over 40 to spell that word. You'll see what I mean.
@@zyourzgrandzmaz that's... No.
@@zyourzgrandzmaz I don't think so? I cannot find any evidence of people spelling it the other way and anything I can find is people saying "No, that is the wrong spelling"
Also I don't think that's the right use of the Mandela effect!
I think I saw a video analyzing the cards and it saying how a lot of the fonts are made up or something.
i love how nowadays the internet treats bateman as a sigma male, as a figure to copy but he literally respresents some of the worst morals out there.
He's just a meme
@@00_00.1 yeah but some kids actually take him seriously.
@@matherman1111 so true even look at 2:11of the video
Worked as a printer for 6 months and some of the fascinating things people can accomplish with mashed belached wood pulp pressed into sheets, i.e paper, is simply astonishing. There was a kind of cardstock that felt like velvet, plastic contact with holographic and/or UV fluorescent patterns and customisable embossments. Also have to mention the palette printing machine they put their office door through to show off what they can do.
Wow
One of the greatest things is Patrick saying Ed Gein said the "head on a stick" quote. It was actually Ed Kemper that said this, but much like his colleagues confuse him for others, he confuses serial killers for one another.
he apparently does this a lot more in the book, but hes so unaware of the pop culture he seemingly loves that he gets a lot of it wrong (idk if its mentioned in the movie, but he repeatedly calls the girl on the les miserables poster eponine - the girl pictured is actually cosette)
Mind Blown. For real. Never knew that.
@@iwakeupandboomimarat He gets quite a lot about pop culture wrong, both in the movie and in the book.
The reason is because Patrick Bateman is a personality void; everything he repeats is just from magazines, interviews, quotations from others, and publications. He has no thoughts or principles of his own, much like his fellow yuppies; the only difference between him and them is that he is partially aware of it. It's one of the reasons he 'kills;' he's so desperate to stand out (despite his repeated statements that he wants to fit in) that he engages in increasingly brutal, horrific murders to find some manner of standing out, but no-one cares; no-one cares because his victims, like his "friends," are all interchangable people. Disposable, faceless meat for the grinder. No-one cares, and no-one knows or cares to know.
Even when he confesses at the end (which is a lot more ambiguous in the book than the movie) no-one believes him, and even if they did, who cares? The people in his life are all coke-snorting bigoted, shallow, vapid caricatures; everything is commodified and sold, people included, so the odds are that even if they believed he was a serial killer, they'd shrug. That's part of the point; no-one knows anything about anything, because no-one cares to know. Just like Patrick's popculture errors go over peoples heads.
and u also prob heard that from a single source
Bateman does remind me a lot of Ted Bundy
Fun fact: during the business card scene, Christian Bale actually managed to make himself start sweating on command during each take, usually at the same point in the scene each time. Seriously I don’t know what that man is but damn.
he would eat chili seeds or something like that, it wasn’t like he had control over his ability to sweat
Cause he’s actually an American psycho in real life lol, a lot of ppl that have worked with him have said he’s very privileged and weird overall as he thinks he’s upper of other people, honestly this is why I think he’s so good acting in this movie and why it’s so easy for him to do weird shit creepy dude
@@drizzy8k92 Bale must've pulled a Jared Leto and he just method acted for American Psycho lol
@@croutons_arenice he actually did
@@drizzy8k92 But hes bri'sh
I remember a time when no one even heard of this movie and now, it's gone beyond a "cult classic" to just a well known movie. It's great.
Who would have thought that would ever happen to a Gavin Newsom biopic, huh?

Hearing Christian Bale speaking with a British accent in that interview was probably the most shocking part of this video.
yk hes british
@@ghost_14.88 I think he's actually Welsh
@@themedia1271 born in Wales, has dual citizenship in UK and US. And Wales is in Britain, genius
He actually did the accent for the entirety of filming. After filming at a wrap party, he went back to his normal voice and everyone thought he was just prepping for a different role
@@themedia1271 What do you Wales is? It is a country within the United Kingdom.
I love the scene where Paul Allen said "It's morbin' time"
No
Best scene of the movie, that made the movie win morbillions of dollars
My fav was when Morbius and Batman fight
Me too
Bro same.
My fiancé showed me American Psycho, and it both made me laugh, and feel shock. I'd say it's a must watch.
I won't quickly forget the scenes of the homeless man and his dog, the two escorts being attacked near the end of the sex scene, the complete madness of the end. The coldness of the elite life, the fact that no one eats any of the high end food, people confusing one another for each other, it almost makes you feel like no one is human.
I love the fact that Christian had actual big-time, high-up-there businessmen shaking his hand and saying "Hey, you did so good with that Patrick Bateman, you know I know someone just like him for real?" I don't think Christian realized or asked about what they were talking about or if they were talking about someone who was the psychopathic killer, or just the uncaring, unkind guys that come out of that business world.
They're not just any elites though. They're yuppies, and the whole novel is Brett Easton Ellis's way of saying "I friggin' hate yuppies." It's like how John Milius made his disposition towards hippies known, except longer.
@@SirBlackReedswhat's the different between yuppies and elites?
I think that every single kill was definitely just a fantasy in his head that he had after meeting that person
its kinda been proven wrong
@@walterhartwellwhite7324 this movie has not been proven anything.
@@jeebuksenpummilapsi230 what
@@jeebuksenpummilapsi230director and author both said the murders and everything definitely happened....google is free
No, the woman at the traffic light, the homeless man and Paul Allen were all real murders. The rest of the murders were clearly Bateman hallucinating because of the over the top horror movie quality, the fact they are totally out of the confines of realism and the fact he was getting himself into situations where he would of been caught pretty much certainly yet somehow doesn't.
You’d never guess it was Chelsea’s first kill count, she absolutely killed it!
are kidding me? this was so trash haha
@@independentmissile200 L
@@independentmissile200 what’s that? *sniff sniff* oh I just smell jealousy, idiocy, an uncultured swine and someone who’s probably single
@@independentmissile200 true but still this movie was good and had my and plenty of others favorite actor so can they make a new except with or not this girl?
Wow you are VERY kind. Wow.
If the whole, “Batemans dad paid off everyone and he did murder all those people” then this had to be the most intense form of gaslighting in television history
Batesman’s father is the biggest girlboss in history
He blows a car up like a action movie scene so yah the murder s are in his head when he comes around at the end of the movie he remembers why he want that way in the first place and rather be like that then the limbo of the yeppie life like the book 👍which is more terrifying if you think about it reminds me of the shutter island ending in a way .
@@alexives9274everything was real till The cat scene where he started imagining everything
@@Preston133 Paul’s murder doesn’t seem to be real too. The coincidence with the CD single when talking to the detective is merely impossible. Besides, the appearance of the detective is quite close to the Bateman’s. And in the end an advocate proves this suggestion to be true.
@@pro-6655 this is my opinion
Patrick was killing in till the cat scene and all the murduers leading up to that made him more crazy intill he cracked and he got so crazy that he didn’t know the difference between reality and his imagination and when the police are exploded with a singular bullet he questioned if it was real or not making him run to Paul Allen’s appartment and when the he got their and the lady their didn’t answer if it was Paul Allen’s apartment she knew that he was behind the murduers their ( the murduers that they cleaned up so the apartment didn’t lose value ) and said you should leave so no one found out the truth
15:43 my god this direction is genius to me!! This movie is so fascinating but what’s more so is how it’s been received. It’s genuinely terrifying how many men think that Bateman is aspirational, and want to emulate him. Despite him not only being a murderer but so pathetic as to be devastated and jealous over business cards! Just another example in history of the patriarchy taking something criticizing them as a compliment.
Another terrifying aspect is how many women find Bateman attractive. I'm assuming he's attractive to the "I can fix him" type of women, but he literally murders people (hypothetically), is homophobic, misogynistic, a cheater, obviously very screwed up in the head whether he actually murdered those people or not...but he's conventionally attractive and rich so it's okay, right?
When I first watched this, some 4 years ago, with my dad from start to finish. I realized that 1. The way he talked throughout was disturbing, with that somewhat calm but almost dream-like and whispery tone.
AND 2. The other thing I realized, especially by the ending, was how much Jean actually cared about Patrick because she basically cries when she sees how far down in his own mental illness he's gone from the beginning to the ending. It doesn't make me sorry for him, it makes me more sorry for Jean.
James is the perfect host, he’s mastered the craft. With that said, chelsea’s informative perspective works wonders, especially for a movie as batshit as American Psycho. Just as Zoran’s upbeat joking style worked for tremors. I love this trio for kill counts.
Makes me wonder what the rest of the KC team are capable of
Yeah her love for not just this movie but the entire psychological thriller/horror genre were very apparent throughout the entire video especially with her own theory at the end.
I also love that clips of interviews were played not to talk about "look at this cool effect we made" but to instead establish the characters and give context to their behaviour which is important when talking about characters as complex as Patrick Bateman.
This is already a Certified Kill Count Classic in my opinion
I couldn't agree more. I love the idea of all 3 of them doing counts; not only will it give James a break from time to time, but it could allow each of them to do counts for movies/franchises they might enjoy but the others do not. :)
No disrespect but I really miss the days of just James hosting
eh having more hosts makes it seem Ike this is gonna turn into WatchMojo
Plus she’s essentially commenting the same things that James would likely say
The best Batman violently killing the worst Joker
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be
Edit: So many likes after a year 😅,and yes, Bale still is the best Batman but Pattinson might take that title
I didn’t see Robert Pattinson in this film
@@henryrichardson6882
@@DeputyFish joke? That shark scene was so funny
Nowhere near the best Batman. Conroy, o'mara, Greenwood, Pattinson, etc are all much much better than Bale is to the character.
You were wrong on both of those points
Impressive, very nice, now let's see Paul Allen's killcount.
i was obsessed with this channel in 2019 , i just finished reading American Psycho and now i’m on a binge of just videos about it
I read this book for a class at uni and loved it and also really enjoyed the movie. My running theory has always been what Chelsea said - nobody in the story cares about anyone but themselves, so they confuse each other for various other people coz they all look the same and they don't actually care. Patrick might have even thought he killed Paul, but in reality he killed someone else, someone he didn't care enough to realize wasn't Paul.
Oh damn I actually like that one
one possibility is that he did kill Paul Allen (the real one), but as shown in the movie by how shallow everyone is in the sense "no one knows no one", that means after a while, no one cared Patrick killed the real Paul and let it go.
Just like how most people never know who Patrick is and always confuse him with someone else, how can we tell Carnes didn't do the same with Paul Allen by mistaking the guy he had seen in London?
@@abrahammesrajecorrea2349 oh yes absolutely another valid theory
idk i feel as if bateman grew so obsessed with being the superior guy in the office that he would know the difference between everyone around him.
That makes a lot of sense
The homeless man and the dog getting killed was always so heart wrenching to me. I love dogs and I legitimately felt so bad for the guy, and then both are just murdered in cold blood. Ouch
Was the cat killed? I feel kinda bat for the cat
@@thatotherrandomfloridian9456 no it wasn’t killed
Why tho
@@SchizophrenicAndStrapped it’s because it was hard to watch
@@jacksonia7724 the dog I get, but the man had nothing to live for
I love the way Chelsea handles the kill count, I'd love to see some more videos with her hosting if James ever needs a break!
I love that the movie is meant to interpret patrick as a not good person, but in modern days is considered a "sigma" and an inspiration.
yeah no duh they also use the meme with griffith it's making fun of themselves since the sigma grind does lend itself well to sociopathy
or do ou think everyone everywhere who ever uses let's say jason vorheese for workout stuff or someone else evil in there work means it unironically?
Christian Bale did a great job bringing this character to life, I think there is no other actor who could've played him as well (well, maybe Jim Carrey, but he'd've been too silly)
He would make the kills funny
i dont think dicaprio in 2000 could've but now i think he could pull it off
He brought the character to life, commercially and artistically.
damn jim carrey sounds amazing for this tho.
DiCaprio was originally supposed to play his role
16:58
“I’m into murders and executions mostly.”
“Sorry, mergers and acquisitions?”
“Yeah, something like that”
We need to see more Chelsea doing Kill Counts
She's doing one later this month 😊
I was so amazed to find out that Christian Bale and Josh Lucas actually worked together again in Ford v Ferrari. They had so many scenes together.
I love how different Chelsea, Zoran, and James deliver their Kill Counts. Chelsea is like hearing an audiobook. Zoran is pure unhindered chaos, and James is matter-of-fact with spurts of excitement. The inflections are great! Fantastic job Chelsea - can’t wait until the next one!
You perfectly summed up my thoughts. Loving that the Kill Count is being hosted by different people now it is so much fun.
Couldn’t have said it better. Chelsea really has a gift for fitting critical analysis into a format like this.
Exactly my thoughts
@@chrisvas65 yeah that just sounds like you don’t like women lmao she did exceptionally well, especially for her first kill count.
@@chrisvas65 I'm sure James would just love his fans insulting people like that
Fun fact: in order to get the role, Christan Bale made a meeting with Bret Easton Ellis, to which he dressed as Bateman and introduced himself to Ellis as such. After about 10 minutes, Ellis was crying and begged Bale to stop. Ellis later claimed the meeting being "the most terrifying moment of his whole life"
How did you learn about this?
Source : trust me bro
It came to him in a dream
@@squirrel7833 Source? I made it up
@@Anthony.Mi0 I looked it up and I saw an interview with Easton who told the story on Larry King. So it's real
The scariest part about the film is how disturbingly funny it is.
I love that this movie also has probably the most star studded cast of any early 2000s movies.
I always figured that when the girl asked him what he does for a living she heard "Mergers and Acquisitions" because of the loud music blurring him saying "murders and executions". They sound too similar for it to be a coincidence.
Have you read the book? Because if I remember correctly she asks him to repeat his answer to the question and he changes his response to exactly that - "mergers and acquisitions", not "murders and executions"... it's a very good adaptation but the book still contains many aspects that are impossible to portray through the cinematic medium.
That's really clever, I never noticed that before 😊
in the book this is exactly what happens
It's also exactly what the business cards say
It probably helped that she wasn't actually listening to him; he's rich, handsome and boring. Conversation is the last thing she wants from him.
Her smiling but almost robotically saying "shit" in that single frame is EVERYTHING. Please become a Chelsea staple!
You mean at 12:50 ?
@@danielleking262 yes
YESSS!! I had to rewind that part it was so funny haha!
James is so dedicated to acting he even changed his hair color and voice
Scariest thing about this whole movie is that you end it not knowing if you're sane.
I'm honestly so happy that Chelsea is comfy finally doing a kill count for this!!! I love her on the podcast and I know she was worried about how the rest of the channel's viewers might react to her, but she's just absolutely amazing!!!
Seems the majority of people are receiving it well. I thought she did a really good job

Chelsea is like that one teacher you had in school that actually gets to teach the subject she loves. It makes the Podcast amazing and was great in this kill count. I like that she made it her own.

Unpopular Opinion (maybe?): As much as I think Zoran did an okay job, Chelsea freaking nailed this Kill Count. It felt much more naturally funny to me and the line deliveries were spot on from her, similar to James.
If we had to choose, I hope to see more Chelsea in future Kill Counts.
I forgot how much I loved this channel
i love this movie so much, and the INK shoutout at 2:47 is giving me LIFE because they're my favorite band
(edited for spelling mistakes)
Something that i like about the ending speech, is that even though Patrick is a pathetic evil man, i kind of feel bad for him because, as i interpret it, he actually wants to be found out so that he could mature through the consequences, him being constantlly protected by his privileges prevents him from developing his character, as if there is no real Patrick Bateman but he internally wants Patrick Bateman to become real and he just can't and never will be able to.
He's exactly like everyone around him except he knows he's lying, and it drives him insane
i love that about the ending and notice the differences between the two times patrick confesses that he killed people, one was out of utter regret and sadness, and the other (when he was talking to his lawyer in person) seemed more mad and "fucking take me seriously" and it really enforces your interpretation
The killing is his sick way of trying to stand out among other selfish rich people who don't even know each other's names let alone notice murders are going on around them.
Its like he is cursed with being a Ten to One percenter and he is trying to gain some level of identity.
During the confession scene you can seem him be relieved after confessing to his lawyer. Since even if he does get away with all of it he at least knows that someone else knows and that he’s not keeping this giant secret all to him self
Literally my 2nd favourite horror movie, it’s such a dark yet funny film and it’s amazing seeing Chelsea do a kill count on a movie that I love so much( 7:28 also missed opportunity to reference “ITS GRENADINE!” )

@@TheNumbersGuy-bm6bt it’s not everyone’s favourite but probably Scream
Where do fish go to work? IN THE OFISH
What's your number 1? :D
I want to see chelsea do more kill counts
One theory that my mother had about this movie was that most of the events, including the murders, but not including the toxic masculinity that was portrayed, were figments of Patrick’s imagination, and that he had sadistic tendencies that never came true. Patrick had wanted to go about with these kills, but he never did because he knew that he would be caught easily by everyone else. To be honest, it sounded like a reasonable theory, and I just rolled with it. Patrick was an asshole in the eyes of my mom, and I can see why.
Can't believe Bale was just 25 . His body , persona & act are just another level , he nailed it !
Beyond his years.
In 25, he has a bodybuilder, unlike the rest who still fat or skinny in that age
I love the “this is not an exit” in the back of the final scene of the movie. There is no escape of Patrick Bateman’s perception of reality.
Fun fact: "This is not an exit" is the last line of the novel.
“My confession meant nothing”
I really love James. But I wish Chelsea would host more kill counts... ❤️❤️❤️
Chelsea nailed James' classic "TITLE CARD!" That was just as good as when James does it. Good work.
Literally could not be more thrilled to see Chelsea finally do her American Psycho kill count she’s always wanted to do. Absolutely crushing it, Chels

Chelsea is really good at this, she reminds me a lot of James with how they similarly present the movies in a comedic while descriptive manner.
Job well done!
Cus James probably wrote the script
She's got natural presenter skills it seems
I disagree, James definitely holds the cake in dead meat presentation, far more natural and comedic, more enjoyable.
@@EddieLove I never said she was better than James, I used James as a comparison for the way they similarly present the movies.
ikr? it felt just like every other kill count, she did a really great job!
"The highest clientele...and Jared Leto." Is so freaking hilarious. Such a great kill count Chelsea, appreciate calling out the difficult nature of these kills.
“Can you keep it down in trying to do drugs!” Is the best quote I’ve ever seen in a movie.
It was a slight missed opportunity to not have Chelsea show up with a raincoat covered in blood when she gets to the numbers. Still, one hell of a debut. Amazing episode.
Honestly, I laugh my ass off during Paul's death scene every time because Christian unintentionally pulled off the greatest Jim Carrey impression of all time and it takes away any creepiness in that scene for me and makes it feel like a comedy
The dancing was completely improvised by Bale, the director was laughing behind the camera
It is a comedy. It's a satirical dark comedy.
I absolutely love how both Chelsea AND Zoran had their own styles and it was simply Dead Meat all over again. You both should give yourselves pats on the back, because its excellent.
Chelsea and Zoran killed it !!
James would be proud and I’m sure he is
I'm pretty confused with that whole Elizabeth scene. One moment, Patrick is in the bed going at it with Elizabeth, and then he stabs her and Christie runs away. But a few scenes later, she's dead on the bathroom floor? Was Christie running for that long that Elizabeth had enough time to stumble out and die in the bathroom? Did Patrick quickly throw her in there and proceed to chase Christie? Or is it just another "unexplainable mystery" in this movie-- where she somehow teleported to the bathroom or that it's her clone, and that it was all a figment of Patrick's imagination?
The director and author said everything happened for sure
"Now let's see Paul Allens kill count"
I love how James has mentioned multiple times that this is one of Chelsea's favorites, and I kinda love that she's the one who ultimately did this count... well played you two, well played
I can see why because I think she loves these movies that have hidden details, messages and mysteries like Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Unpopular Opinion (maybe?): As much as I think Zoran did an okay job, Chelsea freaking nailed this Kill Count. It felt much more naturally funny to me and the line deliveries were spot on from her, similar to James.
If we had to choose, I hope to see more Chelsea in future Kill Counts.
@@TheAnthonyG. for me Zoran is my favorite host
@@miketrapper0464 is it cause he’s a guy?
@@Killer-Frost18x no because i love his hosting because he’s so funny his jokes are amazing and he’s the embodiment of a fanbase it’s funny, Chelsea is my second favorite, especially because her voice is so soothing, James is third but he’s still great
I like to think that Patrick doesn't even have Bale's looks. That's just how he sees himself while the rest of the world sees someone even more mundane.
Great Kill Count!
That’s actually a really good thought
that is just how narcissists see themselves
Just theory wise thinking ,killcount should be 0 since whole story is basically halucination of Patrick Bateman .
@@it_is_what_it_is269 no
@@it_is_what_it_is269 While I’m sure a lot of people would agree, the whole point is that it’s ambiguous. Maybe he did do these things, maybe he didn’t. So it can’t be said for certain either way.
I should’ve commented this years ago when I watched this, but Chelsea’s performance is one of the greatest things I’ve seen on dead meat.
I keep coming back to this Kill Count; it's one of my favorites!! Chelsea did a great job!! ❤
"Ya like James A Janisse and Dead Meat?"
"...they're okay..."
"They're early work was a little too...monotone for my taste, but when they covered Halloween, I think they really came into their own...commercially and artistically.
The whole channel has a clear crisp presentation, and a new sheen of awesome professionalism that really gives their videos a big boost!"
(grabs dull machete)
"Hes been compared to other kill count channels, but I think James has a far more sarcastic, ironic sense of humor!"
"Hey Halberstram..."
"Yes Allen?"
"Why are there steak packets all over the place...is that some kinda dead meat pun?"
"No Allen!"
"Is that a golden chainsaw award??"
"Yes it is!!"
"In 2019 James released this! His third year on youtube. I think his undisputed masterpiece is Zombieland, a movie so high in kills, most people probably dont pay attention to the plot. But they should! Because its not just about action, and shooting zombies in the face, its also a good comedy with an all-star cast!"
"HEY PAUL!!!!!!!!"
Golden Chainsaw comment here!!
Holy shit dude, thats so good
"RAAAAAAAGH!!!!"
*axes Paul in the face*
This. Deserves. SO MANY. More upvotes.
You should edit it to say,
“Is that a golden chainsaw award?”
“Yes it is!”
My favorite bit about the chainsaw scene is the fact that Patrick’s running through the hall naked, but is apparently too high class to go barefoot and decides to put shoes on 😂
I love how he yells at her after she's already dead too 😂
He was wearing shoes from b4 when he was in bed
i’m late but oh well- i think it’s also important to consider that patrick allegedly killed people in the books previous to american psycho- that’s probably why his kill count was so high on the call with his lawyer
My absolute favourite part of the movie is the fact that its called American Psycho and the American psycho is played by a British man 😂
I think the scene where Bryce tries to snap at that other guy doing drugs, but Patrick holds him back, is pretty telling. That's who Patrick is in real life - he's meek, he tries to avoid conflict, and he couldn't actually hurt anyone. Only in his head can he confidently murder all those people.
According to the author he does murder all those people
I've heard Brett Easton Ellis said that the murders DID actually happen. But, I like how it could work either way. Great story telling
I've heard a bunch of times that the author confirmed that most of the movie was real, including atleast a few of the murders, because they were frustrated that people kept interpreting it as 'EVERYTHING was in his head'
he is literally me
@@minemaster1337Girlie pop. What.
I tend to not like when youtubers have other people host their videos, but somehow dead meat has masterfully had 3 hosts that capture the style an overall feel for the kill counts while also making it their own. great job dead meat!
yeah they absolutely nail the format and the rhythm. great research; everything.
well, it's not like Chelsea isn't deadmeat, she's just not James but i see what you mean
I didnt think they could make their videos any more preachy until this chick showed up.
@@hurpaderpp I feel like James has always been a humanist though. Maybe you should revaluate yourself as well!
@@yimothyyarles7854 Yeah that's not really what I meant. It's different though, different voice slightly different pacing and perspective. It's welcomed in my book.
I think the main character is a dork that everyone looks down on and ignores. So he imagines all of these scenarios in order to feel that he has some power or control over the people in his life and is able to get revenge on those who wronged him. His delusions are a result of his intense in security.
22:09 hey it's cannibal joker inside Batman's body
Having Chelsea Rebecca host the next Kill Count is a real honor. Her husband is cool enough to allow his wife to give us the latest. But it would be even better if James, Zoran and Chelsea got together in the next video.
If they did it together in Thankskilling 3
Agreed.
Yo cross over event
Avengers lvl threat
Ah so like the Nostalgia Critic and his crossovers. Brilliant!
Dang, First time seeing Chelsea do the kill count, this should be fun
Abi
And guess what, it is fun
@@yuuyjaaj6721 this was such a weirdly perfect movie to start with too haha
Well done on the first kill count!
waited so long for this
Literally screamed with laughter when I heard the “it’s not cranberry” I was hoping so badly that you’d use the clip, thank you 😂
20:53 I love how he tries to feed it the cat and is just confused why it didnt work
Chelsea in the end : Get to the kills
James in the end : Get to the numbers
That "my god, its even got a watermark" has lived rent free in my head for YEARS for some reason 😂
I really appreciate how well the movie is explained before the counting.
"That night, Patrick walks home through the alleyway where Joe Chill shot his parents" That one went so smoothly, i love it! Good job on the kill count Chelsea!
Thanks for the video!
Damm James really has one amazing impression Currey would be proud
"The man the myth the Morbius" Had me fucking rolling
@The Lonely Proto And is the frontman of an emo band
Chelsea killed it and she actually made me audibly laugh a couple times. and I can see why James and Chelsea are together. They are like two peas in a pod with how excited they are to talk about their favorite genre. Hope we see more chelsea kill counts in the future!
Love the Jared Leto joke
Oh yes she "killed" it.
Get it? Kill count?
Bateman isn’t admired for being a killer, he’s admired for his like 1 million “1liners”
