This movie is a disaster (SPOILERS)

I love it!!!!

Okay so let's talk about all of the random things that happen in this movie that make us laugh:

1. Killing victims with a giant safety pin (WHAT?????? do those even exist??)
2. Every time someone is murdered it cuts back to the gym where all the girls are back working out as if nothing has happened. Business sure isn't suffering even though bodies (yes, BODIES) are discovered there on a daily basis.
3. The undercover cop goes to the house of one of the gym client's, and outside while they are having Diet Pepsi's and chatting coyly the undercover cop picks up a random blood-red phone and calls someone. The client has an old fashioned phone and it's outside on her lawn table. UM??
4. The gym owner's seemingly best buddy dies and the gym doesn't even close so they can mourn. In fact they don't even close up for the day.
5. The vandals' scene. I have never seen such poofy hair on a big girl in my life!!!!! Her hair took up my entire TV screen!
6. The kung fu fighting sequences
7. The homoerotic relationship of the Gym Owner's Stalker and the Undercover cop. Oh just *beep* already and get over yourselves.
8. The tacky daisy duke bike shorts that the men wear in this movie
9. The fat girl on the exercise bike
10. The brown-haired girl who looks like she's orgasming while she's doing her aerobics in the beginning.
11. All of the boob/crotch shots throughout the entire opening sequence
12. All the songs, especially Only You Tonight (something about an apple being red and juicy????? WHAT???????? EW!!!!!)
13. The end!! So hilarious. I was like what the *beep* is she wearing a wig? Where are her nipples???

You go ahead, let your hair down

i LOVE this movie lol. . i also love how after some people have been killed, you can spot them in the background during some of the workout scenes. I wish this movie had a proper dvd release :(

I never noticed that I'll have to look for it next time.

It's a sad thing that your adventures have ended here

The safety pin as a weapon was so hilarious, mainly because towards the beginning you see Rhonda has a very sharp and very large mail opener in her desk that would be perfect for murdering. Instead she uses a safety pin so she can poke people to death, kind of impractical lol

Omg sista Soco! I know you won't see this reply but I was laughing all over the place at this post.
lolz at the fat girl on the bike. Such a drunk little gem this is. *Buys every VHS copy in the world*

at all the dead people working out after their death scenes.

I watched this recently on youtube and I loved every moment. The acting was awful but that's what makes it fun.
