Jason is trying to get his dance troupe ready for their big performance while at the same time trying to kick his drug habit for good.

If you are lucky enough to find a copy of Dance or Die, and you read the first sentence on the back of the VHS box, you will see this (and I quote): "Jason Chandler wants just two things in life: to stay off drugs, and to choreograph a dance show that rivals Flashdance." If that doesn't make you want to immediately see the film, there is clearly something wrong with you.
I love movies about murder and aerobics! This movie fit the bill nicely.
Undistinguished thriller filmed in Las Vegas is a hard-up, shabby affair, but diverting in a curious way tantamount to watching hippos mate. A young dance choreographer in alcoholism recovery comes home from work one afternoon to find that his drug dealing roommate and entourage have been brutally massacred.
