Review of Rock All Night

8/10
Rock All Night has some musical performances but is mostly a drama about confrontations that I enjoyed
26 March 2017
The title of this Roger Corman flick may be a bit misleading since while there are some songs of popular performers of the day-such as The Platters-being performed in it, it's mostly a story of various types in a bar facing a confrontation of their fears when dealing with a couple of criminals who wander in with the police on their way. Dick Miller is the lead who likes to make insulting statements but also seems to know what each person he meets is like to the point he shows no fear whatsoever to whoever he speaks to like one of the criminals he's dealing with-the one played by Russell Johnson, yes, the later star of "Gilligan's Island" as The Professor. It was quite a surprise seeing him in this role, that's for sure! If you're a frequent Corman viewer, you probably recognized many of his regular supporting cast here. I really enjoyed this one so on that note, Rock All Night is highly recommended.
