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




"Skatetown USA" (1979) - Part One

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

  4. Thanks so much for posting this movie Glenn, it does have some fantastic music! I assume it's soundtrack is why it has yet to be released for sale, they didn't want to pay all those licensing fees.
