Not for the faint of heart.
It's set in the 80s about a flashy stockbroker who goes around killing people he meets.
The movie is complimented with exaggerated stereotypes of a highly paid exec.
For example, during the movie, the killer stockbroker constantly feels jealous of some of his fellow stockbrokers over silly things (and ends up killing them over his jealousy) like layout of a businesscard (his friend businesscard has a better design than his) or whose apartment has a better view.
It's really a cool but cold movie if you don't mind the blood and guts scenes, which there are a lot of. Some parts are funny, some clever, most gorey and bloody.
It's the only horror movie I've ever liked. Not the typical "teenagers camping out in the woods" crap.
