Members of Rhonda’s Workout gym are being bumped off. But who is the killer?

Killer Workout was released on video in the UK as Aerobicide.

This is, as you would expect, a slasher movie set around a gym/beauty spa. Hence, we get the whodunnit aspect of the narrative, red herrings as to who the killer may be and, as this is an 80’s movie, bad hair, the overuse of syn drums on the soundtrack and lots of pastel-coloured gym outfits. There are also loads of examples of bad acting and bad fight scenes. The killer uses what looks like an oversized bobby pin for some of the murders (!)

We also get to see women working out in full makeup and wearing enough hairspray to create another huge hole in the Ozone Layer.

Getting through this film is like an endurance test, even if the last 10 minutes are pretty interesting. This is a horror movie I would have rented from my local video shop back in the day and booed at when the end credits rolled.

Killer Workout is the worst type of film, in my view- not good, not bad, just bland.

Please don’t waste your time. I’d rather clean out cupboards than watch this movie again.
