Stuck is a 2020 short horror film directed by David Mikalson.

Stuck contains examples of:

  • And I Must Scream: The Man is trapped inside of a crash mat, and has no feasible means of escape, so he is forced to be trampled on by all of the girls that he had masturbated to, crushing almost all of his bones, and even gets hit in the balls multiple times. Worst still, he is ironically unable to scream after the coach jumps on his chest, rupturing his lungs.
  • Asshole Victim: The Coach's victim is a serial pedophile that had invaded the gym on multiple ocassions prior.
  • Blatant Lies: The Man states that the reason why he's at the gym is because he wants to see his daughter. This is despite the fact that he was spotted there yesterday, and there were a different set of girls.
  • Caught with Your Pants Down: The Man's heavy panting while he was masturbating inside the crash pad was ironically what got him spotted by the Coach, who traps him inside afterwards.
  • Eye Scream: The final blow onto the man causes one of his eyes to become dislocated.
  • Gorn: This short film is infamous for having this, and it gets especially graphic at the end, where the entire affair turns the Man into a broken, bloody mess.
  • Ironic Echo: The line that The Man shouts at the Coach for her disability is ultimately what encourages her to trampled onto the man himself. In the end, he is the one who ends up more crippled than the Coach ever did.
  • Karma Houdini Warranty: It is heavily implied that the Man had been breaking and entering into the junior gym multiple times before the events of the short film, and had gotten away with it every single time. Additionally, police were never sent to investigate the gym, as he was never found. This time, he's not so lucky.
  • Mama Bear: The Coach to her students. She wanted to get rid of the creep masturbating to them so badly, she had them trample over him.
  • Mutilation Conga: As the Man is being trampled on by the girls, we see the damage from getting trampled on, with one girl at a time delivering a leathal blow.
  • Pædo Hunt: The Big Bad of the short film is a pedophile who masturbates to the girls in the gym as they perform gymnastics.
  • Police Are Useless: Despite the Coach's concern over the Man stalking her students, the police do not get involved because the Man was never spotted in the gym.
  • Politically Incorrect Villain: As the man escapes from the private lot the first time, he mocks the Coach for the fact that she has become disabled from a sprain to her ankle.
