Fatal Games
There can only be one winner in this contest. Their mistake was to even compete!
Directed by Michael Elliot
Produced by Impact Films
A 1980s slasher thriller that weaponizes athletic competition and pharmaceutical corruption, delivering body-count horror with period-specific paranoia about doping and institutional malfeasance.
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.
