Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' Is Getting the IMAX Treatment!

I remember being a kid watching Michael Jackson's "Thriller" for the first time on MTV. Yeah, MTV used to play music videos, and MJ's mini horror flick is one of the best EVER! So good in fact, that it looks like it's coming back to the big screen!

Today would have been the "King of Pop's" 60th birthday, and we were gifted with this good news! 

It looks like the Jackson estate and IMAX are partnering to turn the short movie Thriller 3D into an IMAX 3D presentation that will show in theaters for one week only starting on September 21st

Here are some fun facts about the iconic video:

  • THE ALBUM "THRILLER" WAS ORIGINALLY TITLED "STARLIGHT"

  • VINCENT PRICE MADE LESS THAN $1000 FOR HIS WORK ON THE TRACK.

  • THE "THRILLER" MUSIC VIDEO COST $500,000

  • THE "THRILLER" VIDEO PLAYED IN A MOVIE THEATER SO THAT IT COULD QUALIFY FOR AN OSCAR.
