By Renee Hansen
Actor Kevin Carroll is well known for his role as John Murphy in HBO's The Leftovers. He also portrayed Virgil in seasons 10 and 11 of The Walking Dead. Now, Caroll appears in the Amazon Prime Video Road House, which is now streaming.
The latest movie from director Doug Liman, known for Swingers (1996) and The Bourne Identity (2002), is a remake of the 1989 cult classic film starring Patrick Swayze, Ben Gazzara, Kelly Lynch, and Sam Elliott. Anthony Bagarozzi and Chuck Mondry wrote the screenplay.
The movie tells the story of Elwood Dalton, a former UFC middleweight fighter who turned to scamming fighters in the underground circuit. He takes a position as the bouncer at an unruly roadhouse in the Florida Keys called The Road House. He quickly learns that life in paradise isn't what he thought it would be.
The film stars Jake Gyllenhaal as Dalton, with the roadhouse owner Frankie portrayed by Jessica Williams. UFC champion Conor McGregor stars in his first feature film with Daniela Melchior , Billy Magnussen , Joaquim de Almeida, Austin Post (aka Post Malone), JD Pardo, and Kevin Carroll as a character named Stephen.
Road House has received mixed reviews but if you are an action movie fan you will appreciate this new take on an old cult classic.
