Review of Roller Boogie (1979) by Lotti K — 10 Jan 2009
Rich Beverly Hills teen Terry Barkley (Linda Blair) is a musical genius on her way to Juilliard, but all she really wants to do is win a roller boogie contest at Venice Beach with local hot shot Bobby James (Jim Bray).
Come on, people, this isn't meant to be taken seriously. Lots of fun roller skating scenes and catchy disco tunes (there's even one by Cher called "Hell On Wheels!"), plus so-bad-it's-good dialogue.
"So what! I'm a musical genius! What a drag, what a bummer!" Just sit back and take a trip back in time to 1979 when things were a lot more innocent and fun.
