Horror Movie Night ended in a double elimination on “Dancing with the Stars” — Jackson Olson and Emma Slater, and Tyler Cameron and Sharna Burgess, went home.

Ten couples performed horror-inspired routines, with two going home based on combined judges’ scores from Dedication Night and Horror Movie Night and viewer votes. Tatyana Ali and Jan Ravnik were the third couple in jeopardy, but survived the scare.

The night delivered the season’s first perfect score: Harry Shum Jr. and Jenna Johnson earned 40/40 for their “Saw”-inspired contemporary to “Toxic.” Guest judge Shirley Ballas handed out shock 4s to Julia Stiles and Tatyana Ali — and a 5 to Tyler Cameron. Val Chmerkovskiy returned to the ballroom after his one-week suspension, reuniting with Jenna Dewan for a “28 Weeks Later” Argentine tango that scored 37/40. Alfonso Ribeiro announced Cynthia Erivo as next week’s Disney Night guest judge.

Cameron apologized for his performance and gave Burgess a classy goodbye, while Olson kept it upbeat in his farewell.

Scores recap: Harry Shum Jr. 40/40; Jenna Dewan and Val Chmerkovskiy 37/40; Connor Wood 37/40; Amber Glenn 36/40; Ezra Frech 35/40; Jackson Olson 35/40; Maura Higgins 32/40; Tatyana Ali 28/40; Julia Stiles 26/40; Tyler Cameron 26/40.

Next week is Disney Night, with Cynthia Erivo guest-judging. Eight couples remain.
