I wish I had come back earlier you are talking about some of my favs.
-Evil dead 2- greatest movie of all time tied only with army of darkness
-Machinist great movie- Bale is insanely method, the director of psycho nicknamed him roboactor
-american psycho-satire about how obsessive everyone was in the 80's(thats it in a nutshell) bateman is simply a tool to convey this, bale manages to add a very amusing performance to a shallow character.
About the scene at the apartment, I think thats meant to show how greedy the broker is that they would cover up what happened so they can sell such a great apartment right away.
Its the same with starship troopers a lot of people called verhoven a facist for this but none of them got that it's a satire about a facist society using boobs and blood to make it amusing.
What's with the likeing ED2 over ED1!!! 2's just a remake! Evil Dead is what broke the mould, and what they did effects-wise with the money they had is breathtaking!
I agree with troopers great satire, same with verhoven's Robocop and to an extent Total Recall, all the society's depicted are very shallow and product minded similar to Psycho actually...
