Dalton (Patrick Swayze) is the go-to man to clean up dirty bars when they get a little too, well, crazy. Let’s just say that he’s the bouncer’s bouncer. But when he rolls into the Double Deuce for his latest gig, he encounters way more trouble than usual. Besides the lazy and incompetent staff, he notices violence runs throughout the town because of town bully, the rich Brad Wesley (stellar character by Ben Gazzara). As he engages in a battle of principle he also falls in love with nurse (Kelly Lynch). The fight, the love, and the Thai Chi scenes in Road House are pretty much the best things ever.
