Steve James was suffering from pancreatic cancer during shooting. The fact he was able to stay in character and not complain shows how great of an actor he was.
We used to dance like this all the time when we were kids. My older cousins would dance like this in the bars. This movie created an entire generation of dancers.
Hi Tom. I recently rewatched this movie and enjoyed it very much. It my first time seeing it since the day it came out in '93. I forgot all about this scene. LOL! CLASSIC!
I watch this movie just to watch this scene. These guys are hilarious and the music is boss. They should have done a whole music video with this music and dancing.
Who would have thought that a couple of years later, this scene would be a famous dance. mmmm, hahahaa, hilarious. Gotta thank the prodcers for Weekend at Bernie's for the dance Movin Like Bernie. I mean, I'm sure they didn't see this coming. hahaaa
"Cause everything is everything and everything's illusion Think I'm being watched, have you got a solution? Before embarking on an introspective journey I work for five days and spend my weekends at berney's" - "Bayou Moon Stompin" - The Mad Conductor
OK, hopefully someone can help me out. I was at a holiday party for work last night, and they played a rap/hip hop version of this song (get on the scene, like a voodoo machine). Who sings it?
I always thought if they'd made a 3rd Bernie movie that we'd find out at the end that he wasn't really dead and that he was in a coma and yell Andrew McCarthy & Jonathan Silverman: "You idiots! You've banged me up and and contorted me and put me through all kinds of hell!" LOL

Guess who was doin' the dancin'? We didn't know that they were going to let the film just keep on rolling. So Steve and I went with it.
You've had some excellent roles. This is certainly one of them. :)
i was just watching a Cameo video where u played a judge so i had to watch this clip again... Bruh, u killed the dance!!!
Hi Tom. I recently rewatched this movie and enjoyed it very much. It my first time seeing it since the day it came out in '93. I forgot all about this scene. LOL! CLASSIC!
Does nobody know this classic tune we all need to jam to while cruising in our classic rides around the streets to show people WABII was an iconic hit
It was a hilarious scene :-)
As a kid I watched weekend at Bernie’s 2 more than the first movie it was always a lot of fun to watch
I always thought the second one was the best.
Sequel is stupider than first and thus funnier.
April 2019 ... YEAAHHH.. the best scene ever seen.
I love this movie. It never gets old
Little did they know that a little over 20 years later, this dance would be sweeping across the nation
omg. I just noticed that the actor who plays bernie is also the actor who plays hauphmann haughnick in Manneequin 2... another classic!!!! I love it!
I used to love this movie as a kid...I could even do the dance! Still funny to me as an adult.
1:34 😂😂😂 gets me every time lol
This movie needs to be on Blu-ray
I watch this movie just to watch this scene. These guys are hilarious and the music is boss. They should have done a whole music video with this music and dancing.
What an awesome movie this was... My favourite movie ever :D
We used a pigeon instead of a chicken, that's why he can only move when the music is playing Henry!
man i wish i could find this song and download it!
Leon laughs RAWR
quite possibly the greatest scene in movie history.
cushiest acting job for Terry Kiser.. seriously how can you not envy that.
I love this dance!!! I do it all the time at school

Before embarking on an introspective journey
I work for five days and spend my weekends at berney's" - "Bayou Moon Stompin" - The Mad Conductor
O.O
oh my god
they shut the music off
and i fell on the floor lol
RIP Steve James!
That makes me want to dance so bad!
Bernie's got the funk!
my favorite part was when bernie was dancin to the music
You can't get the name of the song because it will wake up a dead body.
Get up, get on up!
I used to dance like this at punk concerts. I'm Here because of Hillary Clinton "I'm fine now" 2016/ 9/11 and how it reminded me of This.
The original song for this is called (SEX MACHINE) By James brown. But it does not have the same melody as this version in weekend at bernies.
Haha the one in the purple suit reminds me of a younger Grady from Sanford and Son.
get on up, get on the scene, like a groove machine.... luv it geat film luv the soundtrack 2 but cant find it newhere
move it like bern MOVE IT LIKE BERN
i watched this movie before the dance became cool, thumbs for true fans (:
what is the name of the song they're listenin' to? i've been searchin' for it forever.
ive had this idea for months. easy costume too. i just wonder if anyone will get it.
@kttinkerbelle
no that's what they're singing.... it's not what is actually playing
beat is just too funky
The guy playing Bernie was so fucking talented.
What is the song he dances to in the movie and who does it?
we move it like bernie!
1:27 I love this part when he just pause for that second and continue get crunk yeah
Does anyone know the name of the song? or where I can get it?
This was my first ever experience with anything relating to James brown
I need this song anyone know what it is
anyone know the song used in this clip?
@PropellerBusted So are the people who perform the 'dance'.
what is the name of this song
bruhh i can bernie like a beast
OK, hopefully someone can help me out. I was at a holiday party for work last night, and they played a rap/hip hop version of this song (get on the scene, like a voodoo machine). Who sings it?
People tell me what is this song? man from Russia please)
guy in blue is feeling it
Tom Wright was great in this movie
He gave me nightmares from that movie when I was a kid.
moving like bernie
I can't believe you cut it before the classic line "Aint dis' a bitch..."
Technically, wouldn't Bernie be a rotting corpse by the second movie? That would've been awesome lol.
this is classic
I always thought if they'd made a 3rd Bernie movie that we'd find out at the end that he wasn't really dead and that he was in a coma and yell Andrew McCarthy & Jonathan Silverman: "You idiots! You've banged me up and and contorted me and put me through all kinds of hell!" LOL
I think the black guys dancing is way funnier than Bernie's
Get on up WOAHHHHHHHH!!!! LMAOOOOO!!
Some one please tell me the name of this song!
:music stops:... THUD! XD
Ain’t this a bitch
TO THE VOODOO LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!
