Slumber Party: Skatetown, U.S.A.

Grab your best rollerskating partner and your grooviest jammies and skate your way down to the Fox for a film that needs to be experienced to be believed.

A neon-drenched roller rink called Skatetown, U.S.A is the setting for this ’70s time capsule about a rivalry between two skaters (Patrick Swayze and Greg Bradford) that culminates in a full-on rink turf war and ultimately a contest where the winning prize is $1000, a moped and the right to rule the roller disco floor. And if you’re expecting disco mercy, you don’t know Swayze.

Co-written by regular John Carpenter collaborator Nick Castle, the movie is a parade of 1970s celebs: Scott Baio, Ron “Horseshack” Palillo, Flip Wilson, the Unknown Comic, Maureen McCormick, just to name a few…and did we mention Patrick Swayze in his first-ever on screen role?? It’s iconic.

Wall-to-wall roller skating and disco-era kitsch make this a must-see cult classic you definitely don’t want to miss.
