Vincent Price’s unforgettable spoken-word rap and its eerie legacy
The choreography that defined generations of dance, from the zombie shuffle to the claw hands
How “Thriller” set the standard for music videos as an art form, not just a marketing tool
Fun trivia: from Guinness World Records to the real-life concern Michael had about releasing the video’s horror themes
Plus, Adam and Rob share how Thriller shaped their own first impressions of music videos and debate whether any artist has ever topped its cultural impact.
