Behind the scenes of Michael Jackson’s thriller music video directed by John Landis and released in 1983. Jackson got in touch with the director Landis after falling in love with his work on An American Werewolf in London. The budget for the film was much larger than previous music videos and the record label initially refused to finance it. To raise the money a documentary ‘The Making Michael Jackson’s Thriller’ was produced to attract financing from television networks.
