tune in tuesday: Fatal Games




The young athletes of Falcon Academy are training hard to earn their place in the nationals. But when these burgeoning sports stars start disappearing one after the other, Dr. Jordine and his team – who’ve started plying their athletes with new and untested performance-enhancing drugs – are baffled. Little do they realize that a javelin-wielding, tracksuit-wearing killer with a strong throwing arm and a deadly grudge against athletic excellence is on the prowl, picking off the Olympic hopefuls one by one. Whether they’re squeezing out a few extra reps in the gym, training on the field or clocking up some late-night strokes in the pool, nowhere is safe. As their numbers continue to dwindle, can the remaining athletes unmask the maniac before they’re disqualified… for good?!

Waited for years for this one to get a decent release, as it has up until now only been available on murky vhs. A enjoyable slasher reminiscent of graduation day. I spotted a frank zappa poster in one scene. Def worth it for the opening track "take it all the way".
