The 2006 Road House Sequel Nobody Likes To Talk About

Patrick Swayze doesn’t appear in “Road House 2: Last Call,” but the movie tells us what happened to his character. Sadly, James Dalton didn’t go on to live a fruitful life after inspiring the residents of Jasper, Missouri, to take out Brad Wesley (Ben Gazzara). The sequel reveals that some bad people murdered the legendary bouncer, and one of the film’s subplots involves his son getting to the bottom of the mystery.

As of this writing, “Road House 2: Last Call” boasts a 34% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes, suggesting that the majority of the few people who’ve seen and reviewed the movie didn’t enjoy it. At the same time, this score is arguably higher than some might expect from a direct-to-video “Road House” sequel, so action buffs and B-movie aficionados might have some fun with the flick. One thing is for sure, though: “Road House” has continued to inspire filmmakers years after its release, and the 2024 remake further proves its influential legacy.
