Talkie Zoo: Rediscovering Road House

You know the great thing about rediscovering movies you haven't seen in several years? Viewing them. I probably now have over 100 DVDs at my home, several of which I haven't viewed in 3 or 4 years. One of those, which I viewed today, is Road House. I haven't viewed Road House since November of '07.

I have to warn you, this is no movie for kids to see. It has a lot of violence, bad language, and sexuality. But, it's a great look at the charming Patrick Swayze and Sam Elliot. Of course, the great Ben Gazzara was also in this rough-n-tumble film about a famous bouncer who runs into such bad problems in the honky tonk he's been hired to clean up that he can't even begin to get term life insurance quotes.

This is one of those films that I really do like to watch over again every so often. The heroes are heroic to the death and the bad guys are completely without any redeeming qualities. No blurring between good and evil here!
