The Rules of Attraction
This movie has a 0% Approval Rating Based on 0 Reviews Read Reviews


"The Rules of Attraction" tells the story of Sean Bateman, the younger brother of Patrick Bateman ("American Psycho"). Against a backdrop of ‘Dressed to get screwed parties‘, drugs, casual sex and student excess we follow Sean (James Van Der Beek) through the doors of a New England arts college in the early 90‘s.

The film takes a satirical look at an emerging love triangle between Sean, the bit part campus drug dealer with only a passing association with his emotions , Paul Owen (Ian Somerhalder), the intelligent and beautiful bisexual, and his ex–girlfriend Lauren (Shannyn Sossamon) the aloof uber– cool object of many affections.
