Thriller – en grym film + Traffic's Dear Mr. Fantasy = a two-fisted Molotov cocktail of pure ass-kickery

Thriller – A Cruel Picture is a 1973 Swedish exploitation film which, for my money, is one of the absolute best genre films ever made and truly a nasty little piece of work, especially if you see the uncut version which, for a few scenes at least, splices in some hardcore pornography.

Traffic's Dear Mr. Fantasy is one of my favorite songs of all time. To my knowledge it's never been used in a motion picture before. Until now.

You know how The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wizard of Oz sync up if you play them at the same time? This is the same idea but my version. Mine doesn't work anywhere near as beautifully as that one but I'm limited to what's available on youtube. The song isn't even six minutes long and the clip from Thriller is a good fifteen so the effect doesn't last too long but I think it's really cool. So sit back, hit the two play buttons at the same time, and enjoy.
