ThrillerNYC

'Cause this is Thriller

Since 2004, we have celebrated our combined love of gore and Michael Jackson by performing the infamous Thriller dance in the Greenwich Village Halloween Parade. We are between 17 and a million years old, and our dance experience ranges from novice to professional. We eat brains, grrrrrrrrrowl and bite, but most importantly, we boogie.

This Halloween, leave your mundane human life behind and transform into a rotting, dancing cadaver. After rehearsals at Steppin' Out Dance Studio, outdoor practices in Central Park and zombie makeup lessons, you'll be hungering for brains in no time.

Sold Out

...but we still need Zombie Bouncers. If you're interested e-mail Mike Kaler at mjkaler@gmail.com.

The Dance

After several restless months clamoring in our coffins, we have decided to step up the dance this year. We are working on a new dance that will more closely match the original choreography.

Below is part 1 of the choreography (from the front and back)

Zombie Bouncers

Have you been decaying too long and don't think you can hobble fast enough for the dance? We have a limited number of zombie bouncer positions available.

Our living spectators often get so excited by our group that they want to join in. We don't want them distracting our zombies with their delicious brains, so it will be up to you to keep them at bay. If you are interested in becoming a zombie bouncer, contact Mike Kaler at mjkaler@gmail.com.

With the ThrillerNYC group, we made it our mission to keep Michael and one of his greatest accomplishments alive. His legend will always live on as the best entertainer to grace this planet.
