I agree but the thing about american psycho was even that was diluted down from how it was set out in the book.
The main problem with the horror genre is that the makers of these films know that horror fans are the most loyal. There seems to be an attitude that all they need is knife wielding maniac/spleen sucking monster, blood splashes and a tit shot and fans will go see these films in the desperate hope of seeing something original or different. Every now and again a film stands out eg Dog Soldiers or Saw, unfortunately we do have to wade thru some shit to find the good ones
