Obsessed with bodybuilding, grocery store worker Killian lives each day with the singular goal of sculpting a body fit to be featured in magazines like his bodybuilding hero Brad Vanderhorn (Mike O’Hearn).
On top his undiagnosed mental health afflictions, Killian’s psychological problems are made worse by the cocktail of anabolic steroids – or performance-enhancing drugs – that he regularly abuses to achieve his bodybuilding dreams, which naturally takes a toll on his body, leading to an escalating series of breakdowns.
A common term thrown around for the film is how it is “trauma porn” and for the most part, Magazine Dreams is precisely that. Writer-director Elijah Bynum holds no punches back when it comes to the amount of trauma he subjects viewers to through Killian’s actions.
Majors himself does an excellent job at capturing Killian, sometimes blurring the lines between whether he is playing a character, or if his own “characteristics” are bleeding into Bynum’s creation.
The isolation of modern men
Though the film was dropped by its distributors from a 2023 release due to Majors’s controversies, Magazine Dreams finally being released in 2025 is timely.
Magazine Dreams is streaming on premium video platforms.
