Goofs:

Miscellaneous: During the fight scene between Wild Bill and Nate Tanner in the hospital room, you can see Wild Bill has his hands around Nate's throat. Nate punches him and the following shot shows both of Wild Bill's arms and hands down on the floor but the next shot shows Wild Bill's hands still around Nate's throat.

Dark Destiny

A worthy sequel with great Richard Norton bad guy.

"Road House 2" is a worthy sequel to the Eighties cult fight fest, full of gorgeous Louisiana locales and the obligatory redneck sideshows. Dalton offspring Jonathon Schaech flies from New York to the bayou where he must protect the Black Pelican bar, a family establishment, from an encroaching Miami crime syndicate led by Richard Norton, starring as Victor Cross. The well tailored Cross is the kind of villain that audiences relish. He is suavely menacing and overly confident. Norton plays him to perfection, and the film benefits from a suited bad guy in contrast to all those bar brawlers. When Norton, a famed martial artist, and Schaech go at each other, the movie finally finds the edgy action style it needs for contemporary audiences. Unfortunately, Norton and co-star Will Patton do not get enough screen time in this chapter of the Dalton family saga. But, the film gets high marks for casting them and for their performances. If "Road House" repeats again, let's hope that Victor, as portrayed by Norton, gets a return reservation!
