oh yeah at 1:00

I know it's so well done that honestly I probably like it more than if he'd done it right.

Good improvisation.

oh my god ikr it is so cute

Reminds me of when ever the peanuts kids dance. Haha

he's just takin a stroll

Ooh! Now that you mention it...it is totally HWtW. They must have changed it up so as not to invite comparison since they licensed other songs. I love the instrumental bridge.

Yeah I think you must be right. From what I remember, the London 'Killing Spree' was much more of an uptempo 80s rock number with the Duran Duran riff repeating throughout. I think the lyrics were very similar to this though. Musically I think I prefer this iteration however. One change I'm less crazy about however is having Patrick wield the chainsaw so close to the beginning of the second act. In London, he was doing something else when Jean interrupted him - again, I can't fully remember, but it was really weird. Perhaps eating some flesh in his office or playing with a decapitated waxwork head? It worked really well because it was a really clear nod to the aesthetic of the novel rather than the film. They saved the chainsaw for "I Am Back" in which he was revving it above the massive pile of corpses- then he brought it down and it all cut to black.

I heard the London show was specifically "less bloody" and they amped it up for Bway. I am guessing Matt Smith didn't smear blood all over himself in "I Am Back"?

Not really it’s garbage

@@kykise1395 eh i think its good. But i respect that

@@kykise1395 it’s a solid critique of American capitalism and consumer culture ☺️

Me too! I really wanted to see this show!

Google stage dork, they have the full version of American Psycho and some other musicals

thanks!

I saw it in London and it was THROBBING. This doesn't make it any better but it was 10x more awesome than I imagined. They re-did some of the music. The original London cast had them initially going to something close to Duran Duran's "Hungry Like a Wolf". It was THIS song specifically but it had "Wolf" mixed into it.

Supposed to be a nightclub.

Good rec 👍

This is the off Broadway show not the London run. Although I definitely agree with what you're saying with the smaller theatre helping.

@@Gabriel_Oliver this wasnt the off broadway show. this is the broadway show

I totally agree! That energy heightens it for sure! FYI this is Benjamin Walker not Matt Smith, Smith played Bateman in the pre-US/Broadway run in London

Theres a bootleg of it. Do you want it?

Nay Fernandes Smith can’t really sing especially compared to Walker, but to each their own I suppose

@@marsonwater have you heard the London cast recordings? They sound AMAZING

Brittany Carden this guy is more American lol

Joker Lord lol 😀

Like Sweeney Todd.

You can find a recording on stage saga.tk

@@no032 is the link still working? it sends me to a yt channel

She is onstage. There are some pictures online of this number and if you zoom in you can see her

Now with headphones I can connect her talking with her moves. She got to say her lines before four minutes of step aerobics unlike Luis Carruthers!

+Hanon Ondricek Lmao true

because it is! the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre isn't one of the bigger ones, broadway theater sizes vary. i think this probably added to the immersion and intensity of the show

I don't think the states would enjoy being called out so very bluntly. They don't seem to be too great at taking criticism.

I'm seeing it next month in DC!

Riverdale? How did you come here?

@@ThinkLuckyThink this song was performed in riverdale by Kevin Keller ... So as I said I am here after that ...
