      Audience Member The' twist,' is good. The murder weapon is great. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Take it to the limit!!! Well that was something. Fatal Games has a lot to say about drug enhancement for Olympic training. Too bad the script and acting was so horrendous. And the killer and their motive....sigh Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Decent slasher, but far from one of the best. The killer was pretty creepy, and the deaths were well-done. However the ending totally ripped off Sleepaway Camp. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Such a fine sports slasher. Has everything a slasher fan could want:Gore,Boobs,& a Killer! Not miss out on this slasher fans. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Trying to bring something new to the slasher genre Fatal Games has the killer weapon of choice be a javelin. I found it humorous as they chased their victims toting one. I don't think the writer actually thought about how it would come off on screen. It's not like to can stalk someone w/ a long sharp pole. It's gimmick more then anything else I believe it tries to have this stand out from others that riddled the market in the 80s. For that I won't hold too much against them but the script is uninvolvingly dull & you really couldn't give two shits about any characters. The only interest you're really given is when they're naked be it in the shower, on the massage table or in the sauna. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Combination of wooden acting, terrible dialogue, early 80's pop music & dull point and film camera work. The nude babes & gratuitous gymnastic & swimming scenes can't save this. Throw in unimaginative & repetitive deaths too. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
