I was watching Once Bitten and loved love loved.....the dance off between the Countess and Robin to "Hands Off"

 -

You know 80's movies are filled with great dance sequences in movies you wouldn't expect a dance sequence???

So what are some of your favorite randoms?.....out of place?......goofball? cheesy songs??

I STILL have "hands off......he belongs to me" in my head lol

"When Ted Met Elaine" from Airplane; the dancing actually does come off quite well despite the sheer lunacy of the situation.

goresnet.. I agree that the bike stunts to "Send Me Angel" were quite awesome.

The crazy dance scene to "Music That You Can Dance To" by Sparks needs to mentioned as well.

I remember a scene with Jon Cryer in "Morgan Stewart's Coming Home", where he discovers he has fallen in love and prances around his home!

And how can you not mention Tom Cruise strutting to Bob Seger in "Risky Business"?

There's nothing random about today's movies - doesn't everyone join in whenever the clock gets to seventeen minutes and twelve seconds since the last musical montage? I thought that was compulsory these days......
