Text and Subtext 53: Fatal Games
This is an interesting one, with - unfortunately - a bit of problematic reveal at the end. A bunch of Olympic hopefuls (who are being experimented on and dosed with steroids by a whole team of doctors) are getting picked off one by one, as soon as they qualify for the next round of competition. There are some pretty inventive kills, and a decent amount of suspense. However, the ending reveal is…well, tone-deaf at best, transphobic at the worst. Which is actually, unfortunately, on par for the 80s. In any case, it’s mostly an enteraining movie. Check it out on Shudder.
