One the strangest musical curiosities of the 1980s, Roadie stars Meat Loaf as a good ol' Texas boy who turns himself into the world's greatest roadie to win the heart of a teen-age groupie (Kaki Hunter). She, however, is obsessed with Alice Cooper, just one of the musical guest stars in this rock & roll road movie farce. Meat Loaf single-handedly saves concerts by Hank Williams Jr. and Roy Orbison (who duet on "The Eyes of Texas") and Blondie (who crank up "Ring of Fire") as well. Directed by Alan Rudolph, from a slapdash story he co-wrote with producer Zalman King (which surely qualifies as one of the most unlikely creative partnerships in film history), this high-energy cinematic jam is a raucous, disjointed goof. But only the comedy is played out of key. The music rocks. --Sean Axmaker



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - As goofy as I remembered..
It is a suprise that many people don't know about this movie, it is kind of like it does not exist. Even on the Meatloaf specials on VH1 and E! they neglect even a mention of the movie, which was a highlight of Meatloaf's career after not being able to record the followup release to Bat out of Hell (forgot how to sing).

Loaded with guest performances, check it out...



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My Favorite Movie
This movie is the Citizen Kane of dumb comedies. Meat Loaf is a total maniac throughout and nearly every line in the movie is quotable. Hank Williams Jrs version of Outlaw Women is far superior to the studio. Debbie Harry is just so way cute. Too many cameos to mention. Art Carney is classic as well as just about all the other characters start to finish. "You're sucking away all my deodorant." I love the part where Blondie band members get into a fight with a group of midgets. Don Cornelius is awesome. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - this movie is dumb stupid and Grrrrreat!!!
i liked it, dont ask me why, i'm not even a music fan. if it was a diet it would be all calories and no nurishment. maybe that is why i liked it. i think meatloaf is a very talented actor. but what do i know, i like tom arnold as an actor and wish he would make another movie.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Rocky to Roadie
You may have seen Meat Loaf in another Musical Comedy The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Roadie is your typical early 80's mad-cap comedy with bar fights, car chase scenes, and chessy dialogue.

Meat Loaf is the main character who upon seeing a young groupie falls in love with her and becomes an accidental Roadie for big acts such as Hank Williams Jr., Blondie, and Alice Cooper.

What makes this movie great is chance to see some of these HUGE musical acts of the early ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A really fun movie
For it's time, Roadie is a great movie in itself. it's funny, sexy, and filled with alot of classic rock. Great cammeo's by Hank Williams Jr. and Roy Orbison to name a couple. Jr. sings Outlaw Women at a bar Redfish (Meat Loaf) set's up at.

The story is Hank Williams Jr.'s road crew breaks down on the side of a Texas road. A pretty woman hitching a ride steps out and catch's Redfish's eye. Two numb skulls diving the truck has no clue what's wrong. When Redfish offers to help, Lola (the pretty ... Read More
