Term of the Day: blood curtain

blood curtain--clear, plastic curtain lowered in before the blood cannons go off in "American Psycho," to protect the audience from blood splatter from the copious amounts of blood used in the show. Allegedly, the blood splatter, without the curtain, can hit the first seven rows. After a recent performance, a patron was heard screaming, "Who's gonna clean the blood of my Louis Vuitton bag?" She's the perfect yuppie demographic.
