Dance Craze is a 1981 documentary film about the British 2 Tone music genre.{{cite web|work=The New York Times|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1982/04/25/movies/dance-craze.html|title=DANCE CRAZE|author=Maslin, Janet|authorlink=Janet Maslin|date=25 April 1982}}

The film was directed by Joe Massot, who originally wanted to do a film only about the band Madness, whom he met during their first US tour. Massot later changed his plans to include the whole 2 Tone movement. The film, shot in 1980, comprised performance footage of Madness, The Specials, The Selecter, The Bodysnatchers, the Beat and Bad Manners on tour throughout the United Kingdom. A soundtrack album of the same name was released the same year, featuring fifteen of the songs that were featured in the film. Later versions of the soundtrack album do not contain the Madness tracks, adding tracks credited to the Special AKA, a later incarnation of the Specials.

In 2023, Dance Craze returned to cinemas, and was released on Blu-ray and DVD.{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/mar/22/dance-craze-review-2-tone-documentary-ska|title=Dance Craze review – thrilling documentary captures the explosive energy of 2 Tone|last=Bradshaw|first=Peter|author-link=Peter Bradshaw|date=22 March 2023|website=The Guardian|access-date=31 March 2023}}
