Dance Macabre on AllMovie

In this thriller, an American choreographer begins working in a dance academy in St. Petersburg, Russia. The instructor at the academy is Svetlana, Anthony Wagner's old lover who was crippled in a motorcycle accident. A storm begins brewing at the academy when Wagner begins paying special attention to one American student, Jessica, because she looks so much like Svetlana when she was a girl. Soon after Jessica is enrolled, the other dancers begin to die in freak accidents, thereby eliminating all of Jessica's competition. Is it coincidence or the work of a psychopathic killer? Much of the film was shot on location in Russia.
