Incredibly difficult for random reasons, and both have a lasting effect, but Requiem feels more innovative.

American Psycho. As great as Requiem is, there's not a characcter in that movie that comes close to Christian Bale's interpretation of Patrick Bateman.

Hmmm....hard choice but I remember more of Psycho, but on a different day I could go Requiem.

Right now I'm saying Requiem. But it is close.

Two really hard films to watch. But I have to go with Aronofsky.

I'll go with American Psycho. Just pulls me in stronger than Requiem...

Bale is a brilliant actor.

Two of the most intense movies, and Requiem for a Dream is as intense as it gets. Powerful films, but the overall production and particularly the direction in Requiem is superior to American Psycho. Christian Bale is brilliant in Psycho, but Aronofsky is better in directing Requiem.

Close, but I'm going Psycho.
