Road House (1989)

   Now, this is a great movie! Yet another of the awesome 80's movies I missed, apparently. If you're not familiar with it either, here's a rundown: Patrick Swayze does Tai Chi and teaches bouncer charm school at some run-down flea-bag juke joint that can only afford blind musicians. He runs afoul of a liquor-controlling big-game-hunting asshole and has to kick the everloving shit out of cookie-cutter no-name thugs while wooing the way-too-hot-for-this-podunk-town doctor. Also, Sam Elliott. It has fantastic lines such as:


"Pain don't hurt."


and "I used to fuck guys like you in prison."


Holy shitballs, Batman. That last one is guaranteed to make even the manliest fighting man's testicles retract just a little.

But his prison rape style is no match for Swazye's Eagle Claw. Rawr!

This is definitely must-see.
