Prison inmates produce music video April 8, 2008

This has got to be one of the stranger things on the Internet (no, please don’t share all of the things that are even stranger). It’s a music video made by prisoners — they dance to Michael Jackson’s Thriller song. Very, very strange.

As if that was not surprising enough, so far the video has been viewed almost 14 million times on YouTube. AND, more than 31,000 comments have been posted.

Exactly what kind of prison warden wakes up one morning and decides to use the inmates to produce a music video? I guess if they don’t have anything better to do…

coming next week: the new internet phenomenon, Thriller, as performed by Information Services?

Laura - No, Thriller as performed by Information Services would be FAR too scary for the general public. It would be like the Orson Well’s radio broadcast of War of the Worlds - the public would totally panic! We can’t have that.

Believe it or not, I searched for the Thriller music video as performed by our faculty, but haven’t found it on the net, yet. When I do, it’s getting some air time right here. Promise.

I love Vincent Price’s voice.
