Road House 2
Synopsis: Shane Tanner (Johnathon Schaech, That Thing You Do!), son of the legendary "cooler" Dalton, is an undercover DEA agent with all the right moves. He's put away his share of dealers, but hasn't made a big-time bust. When a deadly drug runner begins terrorizing his uncle Nate's (Will Patton, Armageddon) bar in Louisiana, Shane leaves New York and heads south, determined to settle the score.
From drunken fistfights to all-out brawls, the Black Pelican is known for its rough and rowdy atmosphere. It's also considered prime real estate for drug trafficking - and one local dealer, Wild Bill (Jake Busey, Starship Troopers), is determined to make this road house his personal office by any means necessary. But when Shane takes over the Pelican for his battered uncle, he's about to find out that this local drug ring is bigger and deadlier than he ever imagined. With help from a gorgeous blonde (Ellen Hollman, "Spartacus: Blood and Sand") and backup from the DEA, Shane is out to make the biggest bust of his career and exact a lethal shot of revenge along the way.
