  Never, ever apologize for laughing during the original Road House. It has an unequalled amount of unintentional comedy.

  One of my favorite movies. Perfect 80s movie. It has everything. Violence, foul language, nudity, explosions, sex, deaths, great one liners, and two of the coolest men alive at the time in Patrick Swayze and Sam Elliott. A great way to finish the 1980s.

  Ken Rex McElroy, was a small town bully, in Skidmore, Missouri. He was accused of dozens of felonies, indicted 21 times, but always slithered out of a conviction, except for the last one. He was convicted of attempted murder for shooting the towns 70 year old grocer, Ernest Bowenkamp. He appealed and got released on bond and began harassing Bowenkamp and everybody who&apos;d supported him. One day, he showed up at the local bar and threatened to kill Bowenkamp. The next day, while setting in his truck, next to his wife, on the main street of Skidmore, McElroy was shot to death. Bullets from at least 2 different weapons struck him. This happened in front of between 30 to 45 towns folk. Nobody saw nuttin&apos;.<br>EDIT: there was a book and a movie about it. &quot;In Broad Daylight&quot;

  RIP, Jeff Healey, 1966-2008, he played the blind singer in the film, as well as doing a rock version of &quot;When The Night Comes Falling,&quot; during the end credits.

  As a Missourian this is a cult classic, since the true story that inspired this happened in our state, and it&apos;s inspiring to see the town take out the trash and take their town back.

  The band was an actual real band (The Jeff Healy band) and the guitarist, Jeff Healy was in fact blind (as well as a phenomenal guitarist, his band played all of the songs in this movie, they weren&apos;t faking it)

  Sam Elliot isn&apos;t cool because he has a mustache. Mustaches are cool because they have Sam Elliot.<br>The mustache that is lucky enough to be his is automatically the coolest mustache.<br>The exception to this rule is Tom Selleck&apos;s mustache.
