'''''Fatal Games''''', also known as '''''The Killing Touch''''' or '''''Olympic Nightmare''''', is a 1984 SlasherMovie directed by Michael Elliot.
At the Falcon Academy of Athletics located in Brookfall, Massachusetts, a killer wielding a javelin is targeting seven athletes who have been given experimental drugs in order to improve their performance in the Nationals.
!! The film contains examples of:
* AffablyEvil: Outside of their killer persona, [[spoiler: Diane]] is the nicest person at the academy. Too bad they're [[AxCrazy off their rocker]].
* BigBad: [[spoiler: Diane Paine]] is the killer.
* CheapCostume: The killer sports a [[DarkIsEvil dark]] [[InTheHood hooded jacket]] with matching pants, gloves, and shoes. Under the hood, they also wear a stocking over their face and a black beanie.
* CrossPlayer: [[spoiler: Diane]] is biologically male, but is played by an actress.
* FinalGirl: Annie Rivers
* FridgeHorror: Coach Drew mentions that during the Olympics, athletes started disappearing. The killer was once in the Olympics.
* GenderBender: [[spoiler: Diane]] was born a male and tried to change their gender. Though, they look female, the sex change didn't work.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: The killer's modus operandi is impaling people with a javelin. It's also how they meet their demise, via a sports trophy.
* LesYay: The female coach has a relationship with one of her students.
* MalevolentMaskedMen: The killer wears a black stocking over their face, which, when combined with the darkness, make them look [[TheFaceless faceless]].
* RetiredBadass: The coaches used to be Olympic champions.
* SerialKiller: As opposed to a spree killer or mass murderer, which most [[SlasherMovie slashers]] tend to be.
* TheReveal: Two, technically. As the audience learns the killer's identity a few minutes before the FinalGirl finds [[NewspaperBackstory the clue]] that helps her put the pieces together.
* TitleSequence: A montage of the athletes performing, set to [[https://www.youtube.com/watchv=zh2ZWpU4nUY "Take It All the Way" by Shuki Levy]].
* TrainingFromHell: A running theme throughout the film. The athletes are put through this by their coaches, being forced to push past their limits. The coaches themselves are implied to have gone through this, as at one point Coach Webber mentions how kids today have it easy.
