Here is a great color "re-imagining" of 'Skeleton Dance'. This was also directed by Ub Iwerks, who directed 'Skeleton Dance' back in 1929. The background paintings in this are very rich & beautiful. If you're interested in looking at a good side by side comparison of both skeleton cartoons, let me direct you to 'classic cartoons' blog http://classiccartoons.blogspot.com/2006/04/skeleton-frolic.html This great little cartoon was an included DVD extra on one of my favorite movies, 'The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra'. A fantastic movie shot in the style of an old 50's B-movie. When this film was shown at screenings & festivals, 'Skeleton Frolic' ran before the feature.
