the book was even more disturbing. i loved it but i'm a degenerate.
I didn't know there was a book. That was a quirky, bizarre movie.
Do you happen to know the author offhand?
I'd like to pick it up at the library.
Bret Easton Ellis, 1991.
fantastic book, at least it was to me when i read it back in high school. i was a degenerate back then. lol

Much, Much, Much, more intense than the movie. I couldn't put it down. It's a good book to read if you have a doctor appt. and know the wait is going to be long (like the Ophthal.)
Oh you are so right about that. The book was much, much better. Some books just don't translate as well to the screen. Sometimes the imagination is much wilder than any production.
I'm not even a Stephen King fan (hubby is) - but even The Green Mile was another book I had to read. If I remember correctly, King published them in 6 different volumes, each one a month apart. I think it was the most gripping series I ever read..... I couldn't wait for the next month.
The Green Mile was great! Ok, King fan or no, you must read Gerald's Game. Absolutely horrifying in a delicious, twisted way
I highly recommend Under the Dome and Dr. Sleep by King as well.
Dr. Sleep is a sequel to The Shining.
For the all time best King book read The Stand. They did a TV mini series that did the book no justice at all.

azterry! I agree about The Stand. Just too involved and detailed to translate.
I like his books of short stories too. Nightmares and Dreamscapes and The Skeleton Crew

This is the downside of being a psychiatric nurse. I hear it all.

I once looked something up in the Merck Manual and couldn't go to sleep until I found a hiding place for it, far away from the bedroom. It was side effects of some medication I was taking years ago. I forgot what it was but it scared the bejeebers out of me....
