Hello Friends,
Grab your popcorn and pull up a stool, its Movie Night again on Vinyl in the Valley!
Tonight we're watching a classic, cult road movie from 1977, Joyride, so buckle up!
Starring a stellar cast including Desi Arnaz, Jr, Robert Carradine, Anne Lockhart and a very young & frequently topless, Melanie Griffith. Joyride is about three friends who ditch their crappy day jobs and head north to Alaska in order to find their slice of the American Dream. They learn pretty quickly that the world can be a cruel and unforgiving place! What else is new? Heck, these guys have setbacks at every turn. Tiki T. and I would have given up and turned around after the very first night when their car gets broken into! End of road trip, roll credits!
Directed by Joseph Ruben, Joyride is a very 70's movie with a very 70's soundtrack (featuring a buttload of ELO) plus there's plenty of T&A, some good car chases, a heist and even a peeing contest! Nice!

Tiki T. thought the soundtrack had too much ELO and could have benefited by darker, heavier music of the time (like Sabbath) whereas I really liked it. Like a good salad, it had just the right amount of cheese!
Anyways, we give this one two raised cocktail glasses (filled with hooch!)
We'll see you next time, friends, until then the Tiki Bar is closed*.
