“Murder on the Dancefloor” — a disco delight by British singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor — was released in 2001, it became a bit hit in the UK. But the track from her debut album, “Read My Lips,” failed to slay the States.Twenty-three years and one full-frontal nude dancing scene later, all that has changed because of “Saltburn.”The euphoric victory boogie by Barry Keoghan’s coked-up character Oliver at the end of the buzzy black comedy psychological thriller is set to the bass-bumping groove of “Murder on the Dancefloor.”And after “Saltburn” went from its limited theatrical release in November to its streaming debut on Amazon Prime Video on Dec.

Thania Garcia SPOILER ALERT: This story discusses major plot points, including the ending for “Saltburn.” Set in the United Kingdom in 2006, Emerald Fennell’s “Saltburn,” starring Jacob Elordi and Barry Keoghan, boasts a mishmash of indie sleaze and timeless radio hits in its nostalgia-inducing soundtrack, which includes Sophie Ellis-Bextor‘s “Murder on the Dancefloor,” MGMT’s “Time to Pretend” and even Flo Rida’s “Low.” In the past week (the film got its streaming release by Amazon Prime Video on Dec. 22), “Murder” and many of the now 20-year-old singles from the soundtrack have enjoyed major streaming, listening and viewership boosts — reminiscent of the “Stranger Things” and TikTok-driven success of Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill.” Elordi plays the suave and aristocratic Felix, an Oxford University student who becomes the center of attention for Keoghan’s character Oliver. When Felix invites Oliver to spend the summer at his family’s estate, Saltburn, things slowly take a dark turn and Oliver becomes obsessed with overtaking the family’s fortune.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Zack Snyder has spent the last several years attempting to launch new IP for Netflix, be it his action zombie epic “Army of the Dead” or his new space opera franchise “Rebel Moon,” but the 57-year-old filmmaker is better known for putting his stamp on famed IP, from “Watchmen” to “Man of Steel,” “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” and “Justice League.” Would he ever return to tackling a pre-existing franchise? “I mean, like, how much IP is there?” Snyder recently said in an interview with The Atlantic before thinking of at least one bit of IP he might like to tackle one day. “It’d be cool to see, like, 20-year-old James Bond,” Snyder said.
