Lydia Hearst Remakes 'American Psycho,' With Less NC-17 Sex Stuff

This video stars a guy named Miles Fisher, best known for his role on The Cleaner, in the upcoming Gossip Girl spinoff, and for his brilliant impersonation of Tom Cruise (the Tom Cruise-Scientology video spoof we mentioned way back in the day of last year.) Miles Fisher, it seems, also makes "music," or random, weird techno covers of beautiful and delightful 1983-era Talking Heads songs.
He apparently put out an EP recently that includes a goofy cover of "This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)," the classic Talking Heads song that provides the sweetest singalong for their concert film Stop Making Sense. (Check out a performance of David Byrne singing the song with The Arcade Fire in 2005 here.)
Fisher put together a shot-for-shot (well, five minute shot-for-shot) remake of American Psycho, starring Lydia Hearst as the dopey blond prostitute who gets her happy ending courtesy of Christian Bale in the original, highly-controversial indie film.
Here are some screenshots and the music video itself, if you can handle the full treatment:

What a disgrace to a beautiful song.
I thought it was awesome.
