flavorpill: Even though the work of Robert Longo is tied with Mary Harron’s American Psycho (2000), the film will enhance a Jackson Pollock. Is it cliché to compare the abstract expressionist’s paintings to blood splatters? Perhaps, but shhh. Watch the “Hip to Be Square” slaughter scene. Then look here, at a close-up of Number 5 (1948). Tell us that the murderous drive of Patrick Bateman doesn’t echo within the catharsis of the drip painting. Scary movies and abstract art
