布雷特·伊斯顿·埃利斯（Bret Easton Ellis，1964 年 3 月 7 日－）是美国作家、编剧、短篇小说作家和导演。埃利斯最初被视为所谓的文学小子之一，自称是讽刺作家，作为作家，他的标志性技巧是以无情的风格表达极端行为和观点。他的小说通常共享重复出现的角色。
埃利斯 21 岁时，出版了他的第一部小说，备受争议的畅销书《小于零》（1985 年）。他的第三部小说《美国精神病人》（1991）是他最成功的一部。在其发行后，文学界广泛谴责它过于暴力和厌恶女性。尽管许多禁止这本书的请愿看到埃利斯被西蒙和舒斯特放弃，但响亮的争议说服了阿尔弗雷德·A·克诺夫 (Alfred A. Knopf) 于当年晚些时候将其作为平装本发行。埃利斯的小说变得越来越元虚构。伪回忆录和鬼故事《月球公园》（2005）获得了正面评价。作为《小于零》的续集上市的《帝国卧室》（2010 年）继续沿用这一脉络。
埃利斯的四部作品已被拍成电影。 《小于零》于 1987 年被改编为同名电影，但这部电影与小说几乎没有相似之处。 Mary Harron 改编的 American Psycho 于 2000 年发行。Roger Avary 改编的 The Rules of Attraction 于 2002 年发行。The Informers 由 Ellis 合着并根据他的短篇小说集于 2008 年发行。Ellis 还撰写了2013年电影《峡谷》的剧本。

The basis of the major motion picture starring Billy Bob Thornton, KimBasinger and Mickey Rourke, The Informers is a seductive and chillingly nihilistic novel, in which Bret Easton Ellis, returns to Los Angeles, the city whose moral badlands he portrayed so unforgettably in Less Than Zero. This time is the early eighties. The characters go to the same schools and eat at the same restaurants. Their voices enfold us as seamlessly as those of DJs heard over a car radio. They have sex with the same boys and girls and buy from the same dealers. In short, they are connected in the only way people can be in that city.

Dirk sees his best friend killed in a desert car wreck, then rifles through his pockets for a last joint before the ambulance comes. Cheryl, a wannabe newscaster, chides her future stepdaughter, “You're tan but you don't look happy.” Jamie is a clubland carnivore with a taste for human blood. As rendered by Ellis, their interactions compose a chilling, fascinating, and outrageous descent into the abyss beneath L.A.'s gorgeous surfaces.
