"Find me cards equivalent to: Sinister Waltz"

Equivalent cards to Sinister Waltz (Sorcery, Black/Red, reanimating creatures) are very limited, but here are some with similar effects:
1. Breath of Life (White) - Reanimates one creature. Not black/red.
2. Dance of the Dead (Black) - Enchantment, returns one creature.

No direct equivalents exist in black/red with the same pick multiple, random, return to play effect. The closest black/red reanimation sorceries are:

  • Victimize (Black): Sacrifice a creature, return two creatures from graveyard to play tapped.
  • Rise from the Grave (Black): Reanimate one creature from any graveyard.


Reason: Sinister Waltz has a unique combination of reanimating multiple creatures at random, making true equivalents rare in just black and red. Victimize is the closest in color and effect but still differs in specifics.

    Rules

  • If more than one Dance of the Dead ends up on a creature, each contributes a +1/+1. But you only have to pay the untap cost once. You may pay for each one, however, and untap the card more than once during upkeep.
  • If the creature card put onto the battlefield has protection from black (or anything that prevents this from legally being attached), this won't be able to attach to it. Then this will go to the graveyard as a state-based action, causing the creature to be sacrificed.
  • Once the creature is returned to the battlefield, Dance of the Dead can't be attached to anything other than it (unless Dance of the Dead somehow manages to put a different creature onto the battlefield). Attempting to move Dance of the Dead to another creature won't work.
  • This is a new wording. Dance of the Dead is now an Aura. You target a creature card in a graveyard when you cast it. It enters attached to that card. Then it returns that card to the battlefield, and attaches itself to that card again (since the card is treated as a new object on the battlefield).

    Enchant creature card in a graveyard When this Aura enters, if it's on the battlefield, it loses "enchant creature card in a graveyard" and gains "enchant creature put onto the battlefield with this Aura." Put enchanted creature card onto the battlefield tapped under your control and attach this Aura to it. When this Aura leaves the battlefield, that creature's controller sacrifices it. Enchanted creature gets +1/+1 and doesn't untap during its controller's untap step. At the beginning of the upkeep of enchanted creature's controller, that player may pay . If the player does, untap that creature.

  • A later effect that changes the affected creature’s colors will overwrite that part of Rise from the Grave’s effect; the creature will be only the new color. The same is true about an effect that changes the affected creature’s types or subtypes.
  • If the creature is normally colorless, it will simply become black. It can’t be both black and colorless.
  • Rise from the Grave doesn’t overwrite any previous colors or types. Rather, it adds another color and another subtype.

    Rules

  • As Victimize resolves, you must sacrifice a creature if able. You can't change your mind and choose not to sacrifice anything.
  • If one of the targeted creature cards is an illegal target (for instance, because it has left your graveyard before Victimize resolves), you'll still sacrifice a creature and put the other card onto the battlefield. If both are illegal targets, Victimize won't resolve. You won't sacrifice a creature.
  • The creature you sacrifice isn't chosen until Victimize resolves. You can't return the creature you sacrifice because it will still be on the battlefield at the time targets are chosen.
  • You must choose two targets. You can't cast Victimize targeting only one creature card.
