Dance of the Dead is an American zombie horror-comedy film released in 2008. It premiered exclusively at Mann's Chinese 6 Theaters in Los Angeles on October 13, before being released on DVD the next day. The film was directed by Gregg Bishop and written by Joe Ballarini. The film stars Jared Kusnitz, Greyson Chadwick, Chandler Darby, Carissa Capobianco and Mark Oliver.In true style of the teen horror genre, a group of high school students try and defend their prom from hordes of the undead, who have been resurrected presumably via the chemicals emitted from the power plant, located conveniently next to the cemetery.

Pom-Pom Girl: Gwen isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer but is pretty nice and perky (bring willing to talk to the geeky Steven and ask his advice even while not returning his crush) and fairly chaste (based on her reaction to Nash turning down her invitation to prom but saying he will let her give him oral sex if she wants).

Class Princess: Jennifer the prom queen is horrified by all of the deaths during the zombie rampage rather than just being relieved by her own survival. She also isn't embarrassed to admit that she has some geeky beliefs and interests. Her one Jerkass moment is only in a Deleted Scene and is more of a Jerkass Has a Point moment.

comment
Well-groomed, student council president Mitch presents himself as The Betty for Lindsay, implying that Jimmy's bad attitude and constant smell of pizza make him a Veronica type, although the opposite is arguably true given that Jimmy is her long-term boyfriend, and a humbler character than the superficially charming Mitch.

Oblivious to Love: Gwen doesn't get that Stephen is trying to ask her to prom when he approaches her after cheerleading practice and asks if he thinks that Nash would want to go with her. Steven reluctantly says that if he were Nash, he would but Nash isn't interested. Later, he spells it out for her, and she hints that she would have said yes.

Ask a Stupid Question...: In a deleted scene, hoping for a rebound date, Jimmy asks Jennifer's friend Teri if it was just him or if there was some romantic sparks between them when they read Romeo and Juliet for English class together. Keep in mind that Jimmy had already asked her best friend out right in front of her before asking Teri, and with a far weaker pretext.

Hero of Another Story: The Gravedigger. The opening of the movie has him carting around a wheelbarrow full of zombified hands, meaning the zombie problem has been going on for some time. By the end of the movie when the survivors drive away from the school, he walks toward it with a weary sigh, complaining about having to clean it up.

Cowardly Lion: Tough guy Kyle is introduced cowering and crying after a zombie attack but quickly gets over it (a bit defensively) and breaks out his gun to fight zombies with. Gwen is also willing to bravely step up a few times despite seeming creeped out at others.

Life Saving Misfortune: Jimmy and Lindsay's break up kept them from going to the prom, where they likely would have been infected with almost everyone else. The same could be said about Nash and his bandmates failing their audition to play for the prom, Gwen's original date getting sick and Nash refusing to go with her, and Steven's failure to get a date.

Jerkass Has a Point: Mr. Hammond has a point about Jimmy fooling around with his frog and Steven using his camera during class. Subverted when he quickly crosses the line by forcing Gwen to dissect her frog. In the deleted scene where Jennifer and her friends reject Jimmy's asking them to prom. While they might have been a bit rude about, him asking them to prom the day of is pretty ridiculous. The fact he asks them all in a row at the same time doesn't help.

All Love Is Unrequited: Steven likes Gwen and tries asking her to go to prom with him. Gwen wants to go with Nash Ramble instead, as her first choice bailed on her due to sickness. Nash, however, shoots her down. Steven still likes Gwen, but while they do show a little Ship Tease after she realizes he likes her, she only starts to seriously like him back after she is bitten by the zombie headmaster.

Betty and Veronica: Played with for two separate triangles. Well-groomed, student council president Mitch presents himself as The Betty for Lindsay, implying that Jimmy's bad attitude and constant smell of pizza make him a Veronica type, although the opposite is arguably true given that Jimmy is her long-term boyfriend, and a humbler character than the superficially charming Mitch. Lovable Nerd Steven is the Betty towards Gwen, while garage band leader Nash is the Veronica. Nash doesn't show that much interest in Gwen though, something she quickly realizes, although she does seem a little too happy for Steven's taste when they find out that Nash and his band survived.

Behind the Black: Jimmy, Lindsey, Steven, Jules, George, Gwen and Kyle discover a body lying on an examination table in the basement/morgue of the funeral home. As Kyle prepares to load his gun, the camera moves to focus on Kyle's actions, but when it returns to show the table, the body is nowhere to be seen. Also, when the zombies enter the grocery store, the clerk looks down one aisle, where the perspective then switches to his point of view, showing a group of zombies devouring a customer. Cue a random zombie jumping up in front of him, which would have otherwise been impossible for the clerk to not notice.

Be Careful What You Wish For: Downplayed. Jennifer is shown obsessing over being prom queen for the first third of the movie, and while she gets that wish, zombies end up attacking the prom. Jennifer becoming Prom Queen is incidental to the zombies attacking, and she does survive by hiding in the bathroom, but by the end of the movie she admits that being Prom Queen now feels more meaningless.

Zombie Infectee: Kyle who is upfront about it due to the visible nature of the bite and turns quickly, and later Gwen who is scared of being killed and doesn't tell anyone, although she does try to move away from the main group.

Damned by Faint Praise: An accidental version. While they're surrounded by zombies, when Gwen finds out Steven had wanted to go to prom with her before learning she wanted to ask Nash, she tells him that he should have asked anyway. Steven says that she would have said no and Gwen replies (with an earnest smile) that if it was a choice between being at prom with him and being chased by zombies, she would have chose him.
