Dalton, a Ph.D.-educated bouncer, arrives at The Double Deuce, a rowdy roadhouse bar in Missouri, to clean up its notorious reputation and protect its patrons from troublemakers. Dalton's skills quickly earn him respect and popularity among the locals, transforming the once-mean establishment into a thriving hotspot. However, his romance with Dr. Elizabeth Clay, who runs a clinic nearby, draws the ire of powerful local businessman Brad Wesley, who demands protection money from the roadhouse. When Dalton refuses to comply, Wesley retaliates by banning Clay's clinic from using his land for their parking lot and causing her staff to quit. In response, Dalton organizes a protest against Wesley, which leads to a violent confrontation between Dalton's supporters and Wesley's henchmen at The Double Deuce. Ultimately, Dalton faces off with Wesley in a brutal showdown that ends with Wesley's defeat.
Road House (1989) is an action-thriller film directed by Rowdy Herrington, set in the rough-and-tumble world of a Missouri roadhouse bar called The Double Deuce. The movie centers around Dalton, a seemingly tough yet intelligent bouncer with a Ph.D., who arrives to tame the unruly establishment and protect its patrons from hoodlums. As Dalton's influence grows, he draws the attention of Brad Wesley, a cutthroat local businessman who demands protection money from the bar. The film explores themes of power struggles, revenge, and new love amidst the gritty atmosphere of the roadhouse. Although criticized for its over-the-top action sequences and melodramatic plot elements, Road House has become a cult classic appreciated for its entertaining blend of action, comedy, and drama.
