That dance scene was perfect!
I love the set up... after, what for Caleb is, a particularly emotional shock, he's so flustered by "Kyoko's" actions and just can't process what is going on... Nathan enters, Caleb starts whining about some torn picture and then... BAM!
He gets hit with that 80s sound track... Get Down Saturday Night blaring from the speakers... "I'm gonna tear up the fucking dance floor, dude. Check it out" ... Kyoko and Nathan bust out some ridiculous moves!! The horror on Caleb's face.... hahaha...
Priceless... So well executed... the scene goes from anger, to emotional confusion, to sexual arousal to creepiness and then hilarity ensues!!!
All while a video-game inspired music track is blaring just to underscore how emotionally-stunted and juvenile both Caleb and Nathan are...
So good... I wish more sci-fi, thrillers and horror movies had these moments...

Dude I totally agree, that was the scene that sold me! It's so bizarre and comical, yet poignant. To those who are paying attention, it's also the true reveal. When the shock and comedy wears off, you realize the only way they'd be so perfectly synchronized with those campy moves is if Nathan literally programmed the moves into her. This scene is almost Kubrickian genius (Clockwork Orange).
