Top 10 scary-movie dance sequences

Celebrating Halloween with wonderfully strange scenes

We are big fans of Halloween here at Xtra (with the exception of our copy editor, Lesley, who really, really doesn’t like it). To help celebrate, in a gay way, we put together a list of our favourite music and dance sequences found in scary movies.

Horror films and dancing are two things not often associated, but have a click through our list below and you’ll quickly realize there is no better pairing.

10. Freddy’s Revenge — Bedroom dance scene!

9. Teen Witch — Top that! rap scene!

8. The Goonies — Truffle shuffle!

7. Silence of the Lambs — Buffalo Bill scene!

6. Donnie Darko — Head-over-heels scene!

5. Beetlejuice — Dinner-table scene!

4. Elvira: Mistress of the Dark — The tassel scene!

3. Death Becomes Her — Opening sequence!

2. Rocky Horror Picture Show — Time Warp!

1. Beetlejuice — Jump in the line scene!

The cover of Alice Stoehr's Again, Harder. The book has black letters on a lilac background. In the middle of the cover is a red rectangle with a black line drawing of it. The drawing is of two figures entangled; they have human bodies but animal heads. The same image serves as the background behind the image of the book cover.
