Killer Workout

About This Movie

Killer Workout (2020) dives into this bizarre world where fitness meets horror, wrapped in a dark comedic lens. You’ve got Joy, a personal trainer who’s stuck in this toxic environment filled with entitled clients. The pacing's interesting— it flits between her mundane life and these wild, violent daydreams that feel almost surreal. The film plays with themes of class and racism, making it both uncomfortable and thought-provoking. The practical effects, while not always polished, have a certain charm that adds to the absurdity of the whole thing. Performances can be a mixed bag, but there’s something about Joy’s struggle that lingers. It’s distinctive, for sure; not your run-of-the-mill horror flick.
