I'm scared by all sorts of stuff. But the biggest scare-fest for me is Thriller, starring MICHAEL JACKSON. From the werewolf-type-thingy to the zombie that peeps into the camera right at the very end, it scares the holy crap out of me! Thanks for 16 years of trauma, Mr. JACKSON and Mr. LANDIS!
AUNT JOHN SEZ: Luckily for you Ally, the Gloved-One and/or his production company has forbidden the embedding of his seminal zombie video, so we can't display the full visuals.
Unfortunately for you, we do have the power to embed the below LEGO and BOLLYWOOD versions. Ummm… enjoy?
Thriller is AMAZING! It's become a tradition for my family to watch it every Halloween. I have the whole dance memorized… too bad I can't dance.
Oh and a bit of Thriller news: http://www.thewrap.com/article/1015
Coincidence?

I love the Lego version! Had me in stitches! The Indian version is scary as hell though – not as bad as the original imo though! 🙂
Thriller came out when I was 11 and it was quite a time to be a kid. I remember our local video store, which also sold high tech televisions called Video Concepts used to play this video and the making of on a loop. Before I discovered shopping, this is the place my mom would drop me off at in the mall. There were couches and everything.
So. Awesome.
Say what you will about what become of Michael, but this album and Off the Wall are fucking fantastic.
I remember watching "Thriller" for the first time with my brother-in-law. I was very young around six or seven. It scared the living day lights out of me! Especially the ending. But, now that I'm alot older, I love it! I love watching the video and listeing to the song. I like doing the dance too. haha.
