Killer Coach (2016)
About
A high school swimming prodigy has a one-night stand with a coach, and he will not let it end there.
Samantha Morgan is the best swimmer at her school and is under constant pressure to stay that way, not least because her coach is also her mother, Gina. Every race is a judgement on both of them, and Samantha has very little life outside the pool.
Then she has a one-night stand with a coach, Bryce Hinge. Samantha treats it as a mistake and tries to step back.
Bryce does not accept that. His interest hardens into obsession, and the people closest to Samantha are drawn into the danger with her.
Killer Coach (2016) was directed by Lee Friedlander, who also directed Double Daddy (2015), for the same producers.
Ending explained
The film ends in a confrontation between Samantha and Bryce in which he has a gun. Samantha outsmarts him and gets hold of the weapon. When Bryce lunges at her, she shoots him.
