1) A couple of weeks ago I watched the Dutch thriller film "De Flat" from 1994. In one of the scenes there is a huge dangerous album poster hanging in one of the rooms. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109808/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

Obviously there is a lot more but my mind is a bit hazy to come up with more, so feel free to add to this hopefully never-ending thread, please number them like I did.

PS no stuff like the shit in "scary movie" etc which is sadly enough also ever expanding.

"Thriller" is mentionned in the Harley Quinn cartoon season final.
 
More from HK, some cantopop/rock (music sang in Cantonese) performances:

Aaron Kwok (often labeled as the HK MJ for his dancing abilities :D): ??? - ???????
Quite an enjoyable performance, I especially like how he combines dance moves with kung fu ones.


Andy Lau (he performed at the MJ & Friends concert in Seoul): ??? - ???
He's also definitely "one of us" :D (no casual fan would sample Morphine! :eek:).
Despite the huge MJ influence the outfit he wears is actually 1930s Shanghai style.


Sorry about the potato qualities though (HK/Chinese content diminished a bit on youtube since the appearane of Chinese video-sharing platforms, and the remaining old videos are in glorious 240p/360p).
:shrugmeme:
 
And a performance by my favourite cantorock band Beyond (featuring The Wynners), singing their song Amani (meaning peace in Swahili) with We Are The World.
The refrain is in Swahili (you can even recognise some words if you've paid close attention to the intro of Liberian Girl ;-) ), the rest of the song is in Cantonese.
From 05:04:

 
Let’s not forget the obvious ones. :)
