I really like that the costuming is a homage to Michael Jackson's iconic outfit without being gimmicky. Geoff's laugh sent chills up my spine the first time I heard it!

When I heard Geoff laugh in “Enemy,” I thought he sounded like Vincent price rom the OG version of this song. He absolutely crushed that narrative part!

The Floor Zombie that bit Layne’s ankle was Kathy Castellucci. The Stunt Zombie that went flying was Greta the Gruesome made up to look like Kathy’s zombie.

@@starz65invt Yeah, it's a common misunderstanding. People see the word Grammy and think nomination. The posts say "for your consideration", essentially asking the voting members of the Recording Academy to consider voting for them. But it is a 3-step process: submit a recording, first round of voting to determine Nominees, second round of voting to determine Grammy winners. And I agree, it would be cool for them to get a nomination. 🙂

I believe the "considerations" are 2 for The Way You Make Me Feel (Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella, and Best Traditional R&B Performance) and 1 for Hellfire (Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella). Not sure about The Way You Make Me Feel, but I understand from Heldra Draco that Elizabeth Zharoff (The Charismatic Voice) is the one that put them up for Hellfire.

Makeup was by Rick Underwood and Renette Feren. The "zombie infection" was Rick's idea. As others have said, Kathy Castellucci is the zombie that bites Layne. It was her idea, during setup for the shoot, to have Layne kick "her" away. The doll Layne kicks resembles Kathy's character thanks to Rick Underwood's magic and is from Spirit Halloween . They call her Greta the Gruesome (actually, she's Little Greta and Kathy is Big Greta). Something interesting to note, once he becomes a full-fledged zombie, Geoff never blinks when on screen.

The more I watch this the more I keep finding new little tidbits. When J runs to the door, it’s such a typical horror film moment: the victim can’t open the door. I love how his voice is so tremulous like he’s really scared that the guys are going to get him. Oooops! They did!🤣 🧟😳🎃🥕🤧👻😱🧟♂️ I have to laugh at Cesar’s reaction when Layne sneezes on him. Eli yells at him and he looks so dejected. Cesar is just so adorable. His expressions and his gestures just cry out “but it wasn’t my fault Dad!” (J also just released a single: TGIF Glide with Stefan Salters. Some of the VoicePlay family is in the video toward the end when they’re doing the glide. I love that they’re such good friends and want to spend time with each other. J even brought the crazy motorcycle/mini Batmobile apparatus to the studio so the guys could see it. That little contraption is featured in J’s video.)

I love how much of the original video they managed to cram into this without overdoing it or making it gimmicky or satirical. J. None did a quick execution of MJs signature moves, one quick replication of MJs most famous vocal flourish, just enough of the dance moves to show they know the materian (and know we want to see it). And that's entirely aside from the musical genius involved here.
