Storyline

In a post-apocalypse society, 17-year-old Peggy lives with her over-protective mother and works in her restaurant. She misses her sister Anna, who died some time ago. When two couples of punks come to the place to eat some hamburgers, Peggy feels attracted to Jak, who invites her to go out on date with him later. Peggy goes out with Jak without telling her mother, and they go across town to a dark place, the Doom Room, where the master of ceremony is the ringmaster of a freak show with dead. The MC injects blood in the dead, and they dance on a ring for the exalted audience. When Peggy sees her undead sister Anna dancing in the show, the MC discloses the truth about her presence in the circus. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Outstanding MOH Offering!
13 September 2006 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I was pessimistic when I purchased this entry in the MOH series as most of the reviews were less than positive! It blew me away! I presently own (and have viewed) 9 of the 1st season's 13 episodes! I completely missed this series when it was telecast! Where was I? I love the MOH series so much I generally pre-order them when I know their release dates! Of the 9 releases I have given Incident on & off a mountain road, Jenifer, and now, Dance of the Dead 10 of 10 stars! All the others I give a solid 8 of 10 stars. Guess you could say I love them! The 3 I rated highest (above) I have watched no less than 4 times each! Kewl!! I will NOT miss Season 2 whenever it airs! I am now sooooo Hungry for more, more, more! Master Of Horror ROCKS!
