Road House (1989)

Dec 25, 08:00 AM

When Cody spoils the surprise of Dave’s gift to Mike, Dave throws a tantrum and interrupts the Christmas Special so the store can watch Michael’s present: the 1989 action classic “Road House”.

Nothing says Christmas like Road House!

I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we gather around the bandstand and throw beer bottles at the chicken wire are fellow cinephiles and Double Deuce regulars Mike, Ryan, and special guest: Cody.

Topics of discussion in this episode include how Road House is basically John Wick for bouncers; we lament the transformation of the Double Deuce from a divey road house to a glorified TGI Friday’s; and finally, we touch on the Jake Gyllenhaal remake and how it lost the spiritual and philosophical center that made the 1989 film such a classic (also, how it cast Connor McGregor in a lead role…BIG mistake).

That’ll do it for this action packed interruption to our regular Christmas programming. We hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! And don’t forget the one who made all of this holiday cheer possible…Brad Wesley. After all, there wouldn’t be a JCPenney in the greater Jasper area without him!
