Stationary Bike

About This Movie

So, there's this flick called 'Stationary Bike' from 2024. The setup is pretty intriguing, right? Richard Sifkitz, a guy who's pushed by his doctor to stay fit, buys this stationary bike. But it’s not just any bike—it’s got some crazy supernatural element. The whole vibe is unsettling, with Richard spiraling into a surreal nightmare that pulls from his own psyche. The pacing is deliberately slow at first, building tension as things get darker. It’s fascinating how the film plays with the theme of fitness turned horror, almost a metaphor for personal struggle. Practical effects are used sparingly yet effectively, enhancing the eerie atmosphere. The performances come off as quite raw, really ground the whole experience in something relatable yet bizarre.
