I feel like this movie suffers from either "not enough nudity" or "excessive use of bimbos that have too many clothes on and no interesting dialogue or character development." If you raise the bar on the women themselves, it would be OK, or, if you gave me more nudity, it would also be OK.Having said that, this is a fairly decent entry into the "redonkulous 80's horror movie debacles" category.Nudity? Check. 80's fashion apocalypse? Check. Beefy guys with mullets homo-erotically fighting? Check. Soundtrack songs so kitchzy that you laugh out loud? Check. Puntastic title (Arobi-Cide!)? Check. Atrociously bad male acting that would make Shatner wince? Check. Oddly over the top facial expressions at random that don't fit the scene? Check. Aerobics moves that are probably actually some of the best sex moves you could ever expect out of your lady? Check. My favorite moment in this film aside from the porntastic aerobics moves was when the detective was chasing a bad guy and was trying to pull his gun out of his inside suit jacket pocket. As he reaches in he fumbles around and then extracts the gun clumsily from the pocket with a weird smile on his face that fades when he remembers he is in a dramatic scene,. It's my guess that this scene was tough on him and maybe there were like 34 other takes where he didn't get the gun out. So , he is probably experiencing pure joy that the damn prop gun came out of the damn pocket finally. I had to rewind and watch this again and I laughed out loud. Also, this actor's acting was so oddly .. off, that I immensely enjoyed every scene he stumbled his way through. I may actually seek out other movies that this guy is in to see if he is like this all the time. The unintentional hilarity of his performance is what sells this to me as an awesome 80's slasher flick.Kudos for his car too, I hope real detectives get better car's than that one! LOL!If you want this type of movie, you found it and you will love it.

There was a fitness craze in the 80s that probably all started with Olivia Newton John's "Let's get Physical" video… suddenly working out became a cultural thing. People loved to get fit, not necessarily over concern of their heath but more because it was the "cool" thing to do. You see it in movies, TV, fashion trends… and let's not forget the countless celebrity workout tapes with hosts from Fabio to Linnea Quigley. Another thing popular in the 80s was the slasher movie, and although by 1987 they were starting to die out… it was still inevitable that a slasher movie be released that capitalized on the fitness craze sweeping the nation.Killer Workout AKA Aerobicide is such a movie… and to my knowledge, it still is the only fitness themed slasher movie in existence.It starts with a semi-shocking mishap in a tanning booth. Then we are immediately thrown into the middle of a workout routine where about 30 gorgeous babes in spandex are getting fit and showing off their tight bodies. This is, essentially, what Killer Workout is about… following a series of murders that take place in this gym (Rhonda's Gym) by a safety pin wielding mad person, then getting to see a sexy workout montage set to corny synth music… over and over….This is not a bad thing if you are into cheesy b-grade movies like myself. In fact, this is one of the more delightful bad movies I have ever seen. The movie moves at fast pace which keeps your attention. Acting is pretty bad from all parties, but some performances like Marcia Karr's are hilariously over-the-top. Plus, even if the acting is bad, chances are they are still beautiful to look at (you might even see some gratuitous nudity). The plot is pretty uninspired but it works and there are even a few surprising twists towards the end.All in all, the movie is bad but it has a lot of charm. It offers plenty of laughs and if that is not enough to convince you to see it, the abundance of sexy people working out in spandex might. The movie is also a time capsule that lets us see just how ridiculous the 80s fitness craze got.In the end, Killer Workout comes highly recommended for the bad movie enthusiast, others might want to stay away.

A random killings occur at an aerobics studio.Sexy exercising girls are murdered by an unknown maniac.The studio remains constantly open despite the growing pile of bodies.A cop played by David Cambpell of "Deadly Prey" fame starts investigating the crimes."Killer Workout" is VERY cheesy slasher flick that mixes "Flashdance" with "Halloween".The death scenes are plentiful and some of them even occur during various dream sequences.The workout scenes are drawn out and pretty hot,on the other hand the chase scenes are ineptly handled.The songs in "Killer Workout" are some of the cheesiest I have ever heard.7 out of 10.Fans of David Prior,Ted Prior and David Campbell will certainly enjoy this ultra-cheese.

**SPOILER WARNING!* I LOVE this movie! It is quite possibly the cheesiest slasher to come out of the 80s, but that's what is so irresistible about it! The plot concerns Rhonda (Marcia Karr) an overall unpleasant woman because several years earlier she was accidentally baked inside of a tanning bed while trying to get a tan so she could be on the cover of cosmopolitan. Due to this horrifying traumatic incident, she starts killing off the clients of her gym because she is jealous of their beauty! Talk about totally cheesy 80s slasher plot. KILLER WORKOUT also features the best weapon of choice - a large safety pin used to off the client's one by one! The acting is, of course, really atrocious. But it still maintains the neat 80s charm. The bad music, the bad fashions, the bad hair. I could go on and on. It was obviously made on a shoestring budget. But like I said, all of that gives it its charm. You must seek it out at once! If not for the atrocious acting and the unbelievable plot, then for it's totally awesome soundtrack! Only You Tonight has to be the best 80s pop song out there!
