Produced by Quincy Jones for Quincy Jones Productions
From the album Thriller, released November 30, 1982
Released as a single January 23, 1984
THE SHORT FILM
Director: John Landis
Primary Production Location: Los Angeles, California
Michael Jackson's short film for "Thriller" was the third of three short films produced for recordings from Thriller, which continues its reign as the biggest selling album of all time with worldwide sales in excess of 105 million as of June 1, 2016 and in December 2015 became the first ever album to be awarded triple diamond status (i.e.: sales in excess of 30 million) by the RIAA for US sales alone. The "Thriller" single reached No. 1 in four countries in 1984, topping the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart as well as charts in Spain, France and Belgium. The song peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100, making Thriller the first album to feature seven Top 10 singles. The Recording Industry Association of America certified "Thriller" Gold and Platinum on December 4, 1989.
The groundbreaking short films for the Thriller album, starting with "Billie Jean," following up with "Beat It" and culminating with the epic, nearly 14-minute "Thriller," truly expanded the possibilities of "music video" as art form. "I wanted something that would glue you to the set, something you'd want to watch over and over," Michael wrote in his 1988 memoir Moonwalk. "I wanted to be a pioneer in this relatively new medium and make the best short music movies we could make."
In the short film's extended prologue, Michael's moonlit date with his girlfriend (played by model Ola Ray) is interrupted by his sudden transformation into a howling werewolf. While the "real" Michael and Ola, observing the scene in a movie theater, walk home from the their date, Michael teases her by singing the verses of "Thriller."

Lyrics:
It's close to midnight
Something evil's lurking from the dark
Under the moonlight
You see a sight that almost stops your heart
You try to scream
But terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze
As horror looks you right between your eyes
You're paralyzed
'Cause this is thriller
Thriller night
And no one's gonna save you
From the beast about to strike
You know it's thriller
Thriller night
You're fighting for your life
Inside a killer thriller tonight, yeah

[Local Art Kid]

When we were kids: Scariest thing we ever saw Now: A masterpiece

[whatsyour_motive]

Dead ass.i was so scared.still am in a way

[Leilani Hosea]

True tho I was terrified as a kid watching esp on the zombie part😅

[Peter Gant]

It was a masterpiece then!

[TonedOutStep]

Faccs crazy how everything changed

[Beautiful butterfly]

Ikrrr I remember it being a literal nightmare now its 👩‍🍳 🤌💋

[Dee Bee]

Can’t be possible that this is 40 years old already. I remember MTV playing it every hour on the hour for quite a while after it’s first release. ❤❤❤

[Newton Alex]

May GOD Almighty always be before and after you,this month and beyond 🙏..

[민유진]

Oh boy unbelievable I myself I'm like half that age

[Son]

that only means one thing We're old

[Quartzz]

Its 13 yr 💀

[Iman Abu Iqran]

@Quartzz 😭😭it was posted on KZbin 13 years ago, this song has been out longer than KZbin existed my friend

[Natallia Castro]

MJ, ALEM DO NOSSO TEMPO ❤ SIMPLESMENTE FANTÁSTICO!!!!

[Lubadabe]

Ninguém supera o Michael!!!

[Murilo da Silva]

Atemporal. Uma verdadeira obra prima

[Philip Voy]

Still one of the best extended story music videos ever created. Superb choreography and truly unique. This music video changed everything. A multitude of new concepts introduced here that expanded the minds of artists and filmography. Truly, this was and is a benchmark for creativity.

[Spider]

When this came out - we were all mesmerized. It was scary! The beat was awesome. And, the dancing... I'm not really sure we had seen anything like this before. It's the first time I can remember a music video being presented like a movie - it was unique. We loved it and still do! Poor MJ - damn shame fame is so cruel sometimes. Same thing for Judy Garland. The greatest seem to have the roughest time. Both of them were basically kidnapped at birth and never had a regular life of any kind. So glad there are child labor laws now that can prevent that type of thing.

[Kayla Fritz]

Michael was the only person who could attract that sort of attention! He was a musical genius!

[Grimm Reaper]

I totally agree. This song and so many others in this period will always be my favorite. When music videos were worth it

[LordWigStyle]

@Kayla Fritz Cause he was black and then turned white, he could attract everyone

[Nonzukiso Matomane]

It reminds on my younger days when we watch this video with my cousins always scared we cry run away but we never stop watching it

[Max Power]

Grade 8, our eyes were glued to the TV after supper waiting for the premiere. There was nothing like it at the time, this really set the standard for years after.

[D B]

This never gets old. Has to be greatest video/song ever. So well made.

[Ria Gano]

Agree

[Heloísa Oliveira]

Pra mim esse clipe apesar de ter 40 anos, continua atual! E surreal! Um clipe histórico! MJ eterno!

[Aural Cross]

Atemporal

Maravilhoso. Um espetáculo

Michael Jackson é intemporal

[Ikerina]

Thriller (the song) is a living proof that your song don't have to be #1 on Billboard to be so iconic and legendary. Great song will always find its way to stay alive. Thank you, Michael Jackson- Quincy Jones - Rod Temperton - Bruce Swedien and the entire team of Thriller (and its short movie). You guys are incredible.

[Newton Alex]

May GOD Almighty always be before and after you,this month and beyond 🙏..

[10pitate]

​@Newton Alex amen

[Kelly's Spooky Stuff]

Impatiently waiting for Halloween in May and watching this to get excited. I never had any of Michael Jackson's cds or anything growing up, but loved him for this. And getting Vincent Price involved was the best move. The perfect guy for his contribution to it.

[Tristan Ramsay]

8:35 is the start of one of the best dance scenes ever. Michael was a magician

[Yaboi Derrick]

john smith He was proven innocent so gtfo

[The Geeky Music Dude]

For me it looks like it starts at 8:28

[nancy stella clavijo pàez]

Yes, he is Magic. L.O.V.E.

[David Banks]

Como pode algo de 40 anos ter mais qualidade que 90% dos clipes/músicas lançadas hoje em dia? Não consigo pensar em nenhum outro que tenha superado essa obra-prima.

[renato rodrigues]

Sem essas coisas de computador, efeito bem barato, mais um clipe maravilhoso

[NOOBstation]

@renato rodrigues eu tava esperando uma coreografia à altura dessa em "BONES - Imagine dragons"

MJ's talent and impact are unmatched. Thriller is an absolute masterpiece that'll forever be on top. 🔥

O melhor de todos tempos

[Tambian]

Remember like it was yesterday - December 2nd 1983 - Was at my friends house getting ready for this. The anticipation for this music video back then was off the scale...MJ was absolutely massive back in the early 8o's and still is now i'd imagine... London UK, Channel 4 at 1.00am was when it was first aired...We recorded too on VHS video tape recorder. What can i say, i was absolutely mesmorised. A true masterpiece of music creativity... 40 years later, it brings back so many lovely memories back then. Compared to today, well, you can keep your GCI computer graphics with endless added visual effects because it don't matter..Nothing will ever compare or surpass this musical visual mastery...The best music video ever made , period!! RIP MJ.

[Reina Reina]

[Newton Alex]

May GOD Almighty always be before and after you,this month and beyond 🙏..

[Jo]

I'm the only one who loves the way Michael portrayed his dancers in his mv? They're so interesting to see 'cause he knows he's the star but he always made sure each one of them had a character on their own and even had a little moment to show a glimpse of their dance ❤

[abacaxi tube morango cereja]

Amo Michael Jackson sempre teve seu próprio estilo, personalidade onde chegava chamava atenção,uma das minhas inspirações

[eoLucas]

Queria ter nascido nos anos 80 para presenciar a magnitude que foi o sucesso desse ser humano mais do que Genial. Imagina o lançamento dessa obra de arte na época!! Eterno e único.

[З..И...З]

[Anderson Alcantara Lima]

Lançado em 1982 e a qualidade de áudio e vídeo é espetacular, ao nível do maior artista POP que o mundo já foi capaz de produzir. Continuo me emocionando como fosse a primeira vez! Launched in 1982 and the audio and video quality is spectacular, at the level of the greatest POP artist the world has ever been able to produce. I keep getting excited like it was the first time!

[Tatiane Oliveira]

Excelente comentário

[Brenda Jiron]

The studios said nobody would appreciate a 17 minute music video . So Michael produced and recorded his own video . Major hit topping the charts and his own label was born. Fabulous artist. Long live the king of MTV!!!

[Sheed 1980]

I was 3 years old when this first came out. 40 years later still a classic and reigning as the best video ever from the number one selling album worldwide n history from the greatest entertainer of all time. Gotta love it

[Ami]

I was so scared of the werewolf scenes as a child, but I couldn't ever not watch this. I had it on VHS and just watched it daily. RIP MJ. Just second to NONE in music, dance and altogether entertainment. King of pop.

[HorrorPickles]

Yes! Same for me. The zombie scenes never scared me, in fact I found them amazing, but the werewolf part was a.easy skipped because I found it terrifying.

[TUDO E 1 POUCO MAIS]

[Noor A]

What an iconic song I remember when it came out... in my youth ..still listening to it 2023 ❤

[duh]

This was the beginning for me when i was 6 years old, back in 1985. My parents had to show me the makeup process video to convince me it was just make-believe. Fast forward 30 years and I have seen almost every horror movie you can think of. Then Beat It led me to Van Halen, and down the Heavy Metal / Extreme Metal rabbithole. Horror and Metal are a big part of what I am and it all started with being both terrified, fascinated and entertained by this Masterpiece.

[matheu_henriques2]

esse cara foi o pai dos clipes era cada super produção!!! os outros aprenderam tanto com michael. Ele correu para que muitos artistas andassem ❤ eterno!!! o maior!!!

[Rondarius Johnson]

He bodied tf out this song!!!!!!!! And still the coldest choreography to this day belongs to this video!!! He killed it!!! R.I.P. to the King of Pop!!!

[SCOP]

When i was a kid: Scariest thing ever. Now, 43 years old: Holding my tears. This is not a simple music video clip. This is heritage of humanity. Art screaming higher

[Eugene Wood]

When this first came out, my mom had to make me watch the "making of" for this video before I accepted that it wasn't real, and Michael was not a zombie. Still both the scariest thing I ever saw as well as a masterpiece at the same time - now and then.

[jbrat79]

Me too. When I was 6yr old saw this video for first time it changed me forever. Watching now is just like reliving the same moment. MJ no words can describe him.

[XTheVideoGamerGirlX]

yup, this was me as well lol

[TMKJG24]

Yep i love zombies

clipe magnífico

[Pamela Michajlow]

Still a masterpiece, never get sick of it.

[hyekim0523]

Yeahs 👍

[Jimmy Widders Hunt]

I don't really get what makes it so special. Is there a social metaphor it's alluding to or something?

[Pamela Michajlow]

@Jimmy Widders Hunt I took as a homage to horror movies, but we all see things differently. Everyone has their own opinion and I respect yours. 😀

[Jimmy Widders Hunt]

@Pamela Michajlow yes I definitely get a narrative as the King of Pop the video clip eating popcorn and a homage to the horror genre... For me though that's a bit shallow in comparison to black artist's like James Brown, Marvin Gaye or even George Clinton's historical relevance... Parliament's idea of Black people in/ from space was made into a really fun funky thing but it promoted this cool idea of Black people, after the civil rights of the 60's, excelling in the 70's beyond this world into space.... Ideas of black excellence promoted by people like Muhammad Ali or the Nation of Islam inspiring black people to be whatever they dream they can be. The strongest metaphor I've heard some people say about Thriller and Beat it is that it was a pop message of the Crack or Aids pandemic and gang violence for beat it.. which honestly are a bit of a stretch at best but also at worst play into disappointing white stereotypes of black people in the 80"s... I'm just kinda interested to hear what other ideas fans have. It's definitely a cool tune I've just always seen it as just full on pop on steroids with its world wide release on MTV and getting mass white crossover for a black artist.... Which was definitely history making!!! Just always wondered if there was a next level meaning I was missing or social commentary that Michael was subtly hiding in the lyrics or the epic video production. Either way he was an amazing talent and his life and career are super interesting to think about.

[Pamela Michajlow]

@Jimmy Widders Hunt I totally understand what your saying. Something to think about. I was looking at it through a young girls eyes who loved and still loves horror movies. I enjoyed our conversation and certainly gave me something to think about. Take care!

[Reconnect2Health]

Masterpiece!

[almitght]

Michael el mejor 😢

[David Ajayi]

This clip sends chills down my spine as kid. It's so scary to watch at night then. 😂😂😂
