  American Psycho

  “…no introduction necessary”

  For me, one of the reasons the alternative movie poster market is so well regarded, Jack Hughes’ impressive alternative movie poster for Mary Harron’s serial killer cult thriller “American Psycho” hits all the right chords – demonic possession, an alter ego represented by the face peel right from the movie. Just creepy and dark and like a Francis Bacon painting it makes you feel the pain. Released in 2021 it presents to excellent effect being originally rolled (as issued), featuring a design perfectly suited to the movie’s tone and feel. A stylish and memorable poster, that is hand-numbered #199 from a print run of 220 from that represents a very collectable item of cult original movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: The film had various problems with designer labels during production. Cerruti agreed to allow Christian Bale to wear their clothes, but not when the character was killing anyone. Rolex agreed that anyone in the film could wear their watches except Bateman (hence the famous line from the book “Don’t touch the Rolex” had to be changed to “Don’t touch the watch”). Perry Ellis provided underwear at the last minute after Calvin Klein pulled out of the project. Comme des Garçons refused to allow one of their overnight bags to be used to carry a corpse, so Jean Paul Gaultier was used instead.
