    True, its a plus for anyone able to look that deep... but the general public generally isn't, i think. Especially when it comes to Michael.

    I like Ghost better than Thriller. It's definitely one of the most underrated masterpiece.

    Unfortunately i think Ghosts "suffers" from a row of things...
    -its too long
    -Michaels screaming is just way too much (annoys the hell out of me)
    -it has too much of a modern Disney childrens/family type of movie (which hardly becomes classic with adults)
    -the music is not strong enough... ("Is It Scary" is an underrated masterpiece but the short (later added) part of it doesnt save the film)
    -the whole film was not part of a super mega hype as the Thriller album
    -lack of promotion in general

    If it had been centered around ONE great dance smash hit single (like TDCAU)
    chances to become a classic would have been much better.

    But anyway, other than that its a great flick for fans... great effects, great dance, great Michael.
    But sometimes that just isn't enough.
    Completely agree. This is awesome, though.

    Thriller being in the charts so long after its release is amazing. Michael's music never grows old
