I personally thought Man Bites Dog was hilarious - I was laughing through the whole thing. But I guess we all have different senses of what's funny and what's not. I just never questioned the absurdity of this movie enough to take it seriously.

I also really liked American Psycho enough to go out and actually buy the DVD and read the book. Really fascinating stuff. The movie is pretty twisted and all . . but also leans enough towards the absurd to become funny (still disturbing . . but funny). The book is the most disturbing book I have ever read. I had nightmares for days while reading it.
