Dance Craze is a 1981 American documentary film about the 2 Tone movement in Great Britain. The film was directed by Joe Massot who originally wanted to do a film only about Madness that he met during their first US tour. Then he changed his plans to include the whole movement. The film was shot during 1980 and followed Madness, The Specials, The Selecter, The Bodysnatchers, The Beat (known as The English Beat in US) and Bad Manners on tour throughout the UK. An album of the same name was released the same year, with most of the same tracks as feature in the film.
