Want to stream this new action movie? Here's how to watch Road House, and we'll also guide you on how to watch the original if you're curious about that.
How to watch Road House
You'll be able to watch Road House on Prime Video, because the movie has — somewhat controversially — been announced as a release straight to Amazon's video streaming service. The movie will drop on Thursday, March 21.
Prime Video is a 'perk' of an Amazon Prime subscription, as it's one of the many things that a membership to Prime unlocks.
An Amazon Prime subscription costs $14.99 / £8.99 per month or $139 / £95 per year, with the latter saving you quite a bit of money if you're going to sign up for the long haul.
How to watch Road House for free
If you're excited for Road House but not for the cost of Prime Video, you'll be glad to know that you can get free trials to check it out without paying.
These are technically free trials for Amazon Prime, but Prime Video being a perk of that means you can test out the video streaming service without paying as well.
The Amazon Prime free trial is 30 days long, and it'll roll into a full subscription if you don't cancel before the 30 days is up. You can only sign up for it if you've never signed up for Amazon Prime before.
How to watch the original Road House
Want to watch the original Road House as well as the original?
In the US, you've got plenty of options: the show is on Prime Video and Max for subscribers to either service, and is also available to rent from most digital storefronts too.
In the UK, it's just on Prime Video, but you can also buy or rent it on the various digital storefronts if you'd prefer.
