2. Frightful Fitness Routines: Slashercise introduces a series of high-intensity workouts inspired by iconic horror themes. From cardio sessions set to the beats of a menacing synthwave soundtrack created by macabre maestro Travis Bacon, to strength training routines that’ll mirror the struggles of a long night of final girl survival, each workout is carefully crafted to keep participants on the edge of their exercise mats.

3. Inclusivity: Slashercise is for ALL bodies. Tall bodies, short bodies, plus sized bodies, thin bodies and dead bodies…ok maybe not dead bodies, but you get the idea. Inclusivity is built into the workouts and is present on screen with our delightful cast of bodaciously scary ghoulfriends leading the workout sessions.

4. Spooky Set Designs: Slashercise doesn’t just happen in a typical workout studio. Our 1980’s synthwave nightmare extends to the set designs, transforming exercise spaces into haunted landscapes where every squat and lunge is accompanied by an eerie and fun atmosphere.

5. Celebrity Cameos and Horror Sketches: Between workouts, recover by watching our short horror sketches highlighted by celebrity cameo appearances.

This series is bound to become a new addition to your vintage horror collection!

6. MEATHEAD. ‘What’s the worst thing you can imagine at the gym?’ Vanessa asked Ama.  “A creepy dude invading my space?” “Close! A gym bro aka  MEATHEAD!” And that’s how our slasher, MEATHEAD was born. He’s an absolute nuisance to our workout crew causing havoc and mayhem on our film set, as well as leading our easy and modified modes for the workouts!

7. Four Bone-Chilling Sections: In this hour-plus workout DVD, you will have the option to do ALL four workouts or choose to target a specific area you want to focus on for that session.
