This will knock your sweaty socks off.
Over the weekend, Kristen Wiig returned to Studio 8H to host “Saturday Night Live.” During her appearance, she starred in a sketch that was a horror movie parody trailer centered around a ridiculous terror — Pilates.
The spoof begins with “SNL” cast members Chloe Fineman and Molly Kearney playing two women who reluctantly enter a dark and mysterious room with strange machines. Soon after taking in their creepy surroundings, they’re greeted by a peppy Pilates instructor played by Wiig, who chirps brightly, “Hey mamas! Is this your first class?”
The title for the fake movie, simply called “Pilates,” is then shown as the trailer’s narrator describes the film as ”a chilling new look at girl horror” from “the creator of ‘Saw X’ and the marketing director for Alo.”
In the scene that follows, a traumatized woman played by “SNL’s” Sarah Sherman tells a friend about her nightmarish experience going to a Pilates class, saying, “It’s so hard, but it’s also so boring.”
