THE SHORT FILM
Director: John Landis
Primary Production Location: Los Angeles, California
Michael Jacksons 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 youd 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 films extended prologue, Michaels 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:
Its close to midnight
Something evils 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
Youre paralyzed
Cause this is thriller
Thriller night
And no ones gonna save you
From the beast about to strike
You know its thriller
Thriller night
Youre fighting for your life
Inside a killer thriller tonight, yeah
Have we got love on, love on, love on our hands?
Got myself thinking, thinking, thinking bout you again
Have I got glitter in my eyes?
Or do you shine this bright?
Or is it love on, love on, love on our hands?
Shouldn’t let you closer, into my emotions
But, you know, I got, a little more love than that
99 yeah, 99%
kiss me one more time and I’m there
99% there
I’m afraid to fall in love
But you’re pushing it up and now I’m
99 yeah, 99% there
Now I’ve got you on, you on, you on my brain
Feelings they drive me, drive me, drive me insane
I never meant to feel this way
and it scares me everyday
I got you on, you on, you on my brain
Shouldn’t let you closer, into my emotions
But, you know, I got, a little more love than that
99 yeah, 99%
kiss me one more time and I’m there
99% there
I’m afraid to fall in love
But you’re pushing it up and now I’m
99 yeah, 99% there
Shouldn’t let you closer, into my emotions
Should have left me broken
But you got in the way
You know, I got,
Yeah you know, I got a little bit more love than that
99 yeah, 99%
kiss me one more time and I’m there
99% there
I’m afraid to fall in love
But you’re pushing it up and now I’m
99 yeah, 99% there

Why she talkin’ crazy bout me like I dont do more than my part
I can’t play with my creation give the world to my lil boy

I’m a human I’m not perfect I know sometimes I be wrong
[Hook]
I’m like come and put that pussy on me Dont be running from me
If I like it I spend money on it

Went to jail and that one held me down shea real bitch
Hundred rounds in this double drum It’s a kill tent Marco been in prison for a while but he still flexin’
[Verse 2]
I told bro and them to park the car but they still wreck
I dont think nobody around still but I still check

Have nobody in our business we take real jets
Say she like when I perform so I fuck her with my chains on
And she handle her part so I let her play the main role
Ain’t have to get rich for this partner stay with the same folks
And I cant beef with none of you niggas not in the same boat
Never gone get caught up about it know how the game go

[Hook]
I’m like come and put that pussy on me Don’t be running from me
If I like it I spend money on it
Get whatever from me
Put six figures in your business I do real shit
I drop cash at the dealershipThey’ll mail you a pink slip
She make sure she keep her nails did and her wig fixed
Went to jail and that one held me down she a real bitch
Hundred rounds in this double drum It’s a kill tent Marco been in prison for a while but he still flexin’
I’m like come and put that pussy on me Dont be running from me
If I like it I spend money on it
Get whatever from me
