This movie is amazing...


...ly horrible.

I can't believe something this awful even exists.

Beyond cringeworthy.

Its a total POS, reminds me of why the 80s were embarrassing, white people who thought they should dance.

reply

White people can dance, jack@$$. Blacks think they're so special when it comes to music and dance. Black muzak and dance is just jungle boogie copied from monkeys.

It wasn't so much about the dancing, but more so about the cheesiness of moralist religious authority figures in the early 80's trying to find ways to control teens and keep them in line. Jerry Falwell's Moral Majority movement was losing ground around the time this came out.
