It’s time to swap your regular sing-along for something a little spookier! Sing: Thriller, Illumination’s brand-new animated short, is here to jazz up your Halloween season. Available now on Netflix, this delightful mashup of music, animation, and Halloween fun is ready to cast its spell on viewers of all ages. 🎃👻

The Magic Behind 'Sing: Thriller'
Directed by Garth Jennings, the genius behind Sing and Sing 2, and produced by Chris Meledandri (yep, the mastermind behind Despicable Me and The Super Mario Bros. Movie), Sing: Thriller promises to be a Halloween treat you’ll never forget. With its fun-loving cast and Thriller’s infectious beat, this is one short film you’ll want to watch on repeat. Don’t be surprised if you catch yourself moonwalking in the kitchen afterward!
What’s the Plot?
The story kicks off with our beloved Sing characters celebrating their latest show-stopping performance of Thriller at the New Moon Theatre. 🎭 Buster Moon and his squad, including Meena, Ash, and Johnny, head over to Clay Calloway’s Halloween party to keep the spooky spirit alive. But when they arrive, they’re in for a surprise—a mysterious ooze has transformed Clay and his guests into, well… dancing freaks! 😱 Get ready for ghoulish grooves, dazzling dance-offs, and a few hair-raising moments.
A Musical Masterpiece with a Halloween Twist
Let’s be honest, there are very few songs as legendary as Michael Jackson’s Thriller. With its hauntingly catchy rhythm and iconic dance moves, it’s a track that has stood the test of time. And now, Illumination brings it to life in the most animated way possible. According to Chris Meledandri, the short is a celebration of creativity and joy, just like the song itself. It’s a perfect blend of Halloween chills and musical thrills, ready to captivate both old fans and newcomers alike. 🎶🕺
