Disco Movies: "Skatetown USA" (1979) - Part Eight




"Skatetown USA" (1979) - Part Eight

B MOVIE!

The need to create another "Roller Boogie" with the hype of disco seemed exciting at the time, until you were sitting through the film wondering: why?

Well, so you can hear some of your favorite disco songs and see some bad acting.

This one stars Patrick Swayze, Flip Wilson, The Unknown Comic, Maureen McCormick, Scott Baio, Ron Palillo, , Melissa Sue Anderson, Ruth Buzzi . Musical performances by Dave Mason, and G.Q.

Watch out for one of Dorothy Stratten's (Playboy Centerfold - "Star 80") rare performance's as "the girl at the snack bar."

Directed by William A. Levey

  1. The version Of "Macho Man" used here sounds a bit different. Do you know if it's the Village People or a cover band?

  2. I believe it is a cover. I hope all is well, Robert.
