Thriller

I remember being freaked out by this video back in the day! Before this video I didn't even know about werekitties!
Fun Facts: Thriller was released in 1982 by Epic records (it was Michael's 6th album) and the video for the song Thriller was released in December 1983. The video was directed by John Landis (who had done "American Werewolf in London" 2 years before). Michael was a Jehovah's Witness at the time, which is why the little disclaimer appears at the beginning of the video.
Also, the disclaimer after the credits is the same one Landis put up at the end of "American Werewolf". Thriller won the 1985 Grammy for best long form video and won a pile of MTV awards.
Here is the Bollywood version:
