InNameOnly sequel to ''Literature/AmericanPsycho'', released DirectToVideo in 2002.

{{Narrator}} Rachel Newman (Creator/MilaKunis) is studying criminal psychology at college, her ambition being to join the FBI at Quantico to hunt serial killers. Her classmates have the same ambition. And since only the top student gets an offer to be the TA of a certain professor (played by Creator/WilliamShatner) that she's sure will guarantee such a career, later on, she starts killing those ahead of her and anyone else who gets in the way. Good performances and plenty of BlackComedy make it quite similar in style to both the book and the first movie.

* ThereAreNoTherapists: Averted, and Rachel actually goes to see him for some reason. He even puts together that she's a sociopath who's got a dangerously unhealthy obsession with the professor, and tries to warn him, but does so in such a way that [[PoorCommunicationKills that it's interpreted as being about a different student]].

* SociopathicHero: Rachel believes she is doing good: as she explains, killing a few classmates now will be completely justified by all the lives she saves as an FBI agent. [[spoiler:Then it all becomes meaningless; she's killing her rivals to become a certain professor's TA, and he goes on sabbatical when she kills the student he's sleeping with -- he won't ''have'' a TA.]]

* TheSociopath: Rachel shows no empathy toward anyone else, seeing them as only means to her ends or obstacles she must eliminate. She's also utterly obsessed with the idea that she'll achieve this no matter what. Eric, a psychiatrist, realizes she's a sociopath after a single session with him.

** Somehow, Rachel's parents don't find out she died under another name (Rachel Newman) despite her faking her death with that one, so Eric doesn't know.

* AMinorKidroduction: The film's prologue starts with Rachel at age 12 when her babysitter is killed by [[spoiler: Patrick Bateman]] with her assisting him.
* AmbitionIsEvil

* PoliceAreUseless: Literally. Multiple deaths on campus and yet everything still seems to carry on as usual.
* PoorCommunicationKills: Rachel's therapist calls her professor to warn him about her. The professor thinks he's talking about someone else.

* ThereAreNoTherapists: Averted, and Rachel actually goes to see him for some reason. He even puts together that she's got a dangerously unhealthy obsession with the professor, and tries to warn him, but does so in such a way that [[PoorCommunicationKills that it's interpreted as being about a different student]].

* ItsAllAboutMe: Rachel is so sure that she needs to be the TA that anything she does to get there is entirely justified in her mind.

* PlotHole: In the flashback at the start Rachel's narration says there was nothing connecting her to the murder scene, even though a cleaning lady witnessed her leaving the room. Or that the victim was her babysitter and babysitting her at the time.

* SerialKiller: Rachel, obviously.

Of course, the entire ''idea'' of a sequel to ''American Psycho'' is probably [[AudienceAlienatingPremise a deal-breaker to a lot of people]]. Particularly given that, frankly, this one's just another generic slasher movie, and it contains absolutely none of the MindScrew elements nor satire over the '80s yuppie movement the original was ripe with. Amusingly, this film is not only disowned by ''Psycho'' author Creator/BretEastonEllis, but it's the only movie that Kunis considers an OldShame, for reasons that should be very obvious.

** She's also obsessed with getting it right now, while she's a freshman, despite the position ''not being open to freshman.''
