And let's not forget that he also not only narrated during the theme song for The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo, but also voiced a fictionalized version himself known as Vincent van Ghoul as well as Professor Ratigan in The Great Mouse Detective. Oh. You should hear him sing The World's Greatest Criminal Mind. It's wonderful he gets a chance to sing, and it's truly awesome that he's singing a villain song. And then there's Tim Curry. Just listen to this and you will hear what he brings that's quite similar if not the same of what the great Vincent Price gives. czcams.com/video/zMLCtMTC-o0/video.html
Vincent Price was the least likely man to have a duet on the greatest single and title track of the best-selling pop album of all time, but there you go.
Michael didn't hire him. Rob Temperton from Heatwave wrote Thriller and Vincent Price's Rap. And hired Price, through Quincey Jones wife knowing Price. 😎 Mr. Temperton never fully receive his full recognition. RIP Sir.
The laugh did not disappoint! Kudos to the band, the camera man for slowing closing in to the the final close up, and the lighting effects at the end. We needed this🎯🎯🎯
Agreed with everybody! Although I do feel that a few people (if only a very very small handful) do come close, iconically. Vincent Price could be just as funny as he could be scary, and I think he took it to an artistic level. He certainly was one-of-a-kind! Some pictures of him kind of remind me of Salvadore Dali a little bit. Might just be crazy though if it's just me xD

I love how Michael Jackson had Vincent Price do the Thriller Rap and his laugh I agree with Hollywood make up artist Rick Baker that his laugh was indeed raucous
You can tell this man genuinely loved being a part of that song. Vincent Price is a rare type of legend like Stan Lee where he only became more legendary with age to the point that he's more well-known old than he is young. It basically means his work isn't gonna get any older any time soon.
I got to see him on a lecture tour in the 80s, talking about his life and career. He was indeed very warm and funny. I was lucky enough to meet him afterwards. A true gentleman who took time to talk to his fans.
He was the King of Horror. No one could ever be as scary as him. And not many young people know who he is anymore. It's a real shame. His memory is dying.
And the fright is effortless. He could be singing happy birthday and small children would probably cry as their parents were captivated, to find out why that birthday was so damn happy 😂😂😂
I remember when i was little, I saw Edward's scissor hands for the first time and I was so fascinated by Vincent Price, he was so elegant and unique. There's no one like him.
My first contact with Vincent Price was in Thriller, my second was "Edward Scissorhands", recently watched "House of Wax" and a few others of his movies for the first time, what a legend.
What a great thing you did.. I have most of his movies and I have enjoyed every one them.. Witchfinder is rough… Lol. There you see his true acting as evil. Amazing!
He was definitely one of a kind with his scary haunting voice, nobody can pull that off like Mr. Vincent Price.. you were a gem and still are!!💎 Love you!! just one of the actors in whole world that we should be happy to have seen, heard and met!.. If you were lucky enough! To meet real true Hollywood like Mr. Vincent Price.you are lucky!! He is missed by many.. You are there with Maryiln Monroe and James Dean and Hank Williams. .. I can go on... But there are alot of great people....like you. .. May you rest in peace.
Can’t fall asleep and for some reason I started singing Thriller. I had to recite the monologue. Then I needed to hear it and down the rabbit hole 🕳 I go... and how lucky am I stumbling onto this clip?!?! I love CZcams. Thanks for posting 🙌🏽
I still remember his TileX commercial,lol..I'm telling my age..R.I.P to legends Joan Rivers,Vincent Price,and of course the Thriller ,The King of Pop,Micheal Joe Jackson
This is one for the ages, even though he only took 20K as opposed to a portion of every album sale. This collaboration introduced him to a new generation. #PRICELESS
Goosebumps baby! On both arms and legs. The laugh at the end with that stare into the camera made him look like evil incarnate (imagine the devil from Ghost Rider but older)
Vincent Price has a voice that nobody can match. An amazing actor, and a narrator who will never be forgotten. His voice will live on forever for all generations to hear and stories to enjoy! RIP Vincent Price. ❤❤
Vincent Price was a horror icon. His voice still give me chills.
He was the best horror voice ever for the Thriller
yup, especially from one of my favorite classic horror film by Vincent Price: House of Wax and Haunted Palace
And let's not forget that he also not only narrated during the theme song for The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo, but also voiced a fictionalized version himself known as Vincent van Ghoul as well as Professor Ratigan in The Great Mouse Detective.

He was awesome

Michael Jackson was spot on hiring Vincent Price to do that rap at the end of Thriller. Price was the King of horror.

I’m jealous of Quincy Jones wife now.
@@gildawhitner6962 and price didnt get paid shit for this. sad.
That final laugh with the background music gives me goosebumps. Even older he still had the magic touch. Rip.
Same!
what you think about Michael Jackson thriller ?
@@Arthurm25Yeah Me too!!!!.....
Same here. Chills. Vincent Price was so cool!
The laugh did not disappoint! Kudos to the band, the camera man for slowing closing in to the the final close up, and the lighting effects at the end. We needed this🎯🎯🎯
"The funk of 40 thousand years..." That's still my standard for funk, to this day.
We still have 39964 years of funk
RIP
Vincent Price
Lol yes!!
Yeah, that's some pretty old funk right there.😂👌🏻
Right?! Best part.
that laugh makes me shiver since I was a child
X2
i legit cried when i heard it for the first time
He was slick laughing for real
We lost a Legend when we lost Vincent Price. Nobody comes close to his iconic voice.
Chris Lee disagrees ;-)
@@q1q2q23 well they were best friends and competitors for a reason.
They were both talented entertainers, Joan Rivers & Vincent Price

And his Evil Laugh
*Darkness* falls across the land
The *midnight* hour is close at hand
Creatures crawl in search of *blood*
To *terrorize* y'all's neighborhood
And whomsoever shall be *found*
Without the *soul* for getting down
Must stand and face the *hounds* of *hell*
And *rot* inside a *corpse's* shell.
The *foulest* stench is in the air
The funk of forty *thousand* years
And grisly *ghouls* from every *tomb*
Are closing in to seal your *doom*
And though you fight to stay *alive*
Your body starts to *shiver*
For no mere *mortal* can resist
The *evil* of the *THRILLER*
I LOVE how you put the accent on those words.
there was more writtern in the rap but was too long so was edited the end was can you dig it?
@@jazmorrison9030 Yes you are so right I love the long version CAN YOU DIG IT ! 👍
Blood and neighborhood don't rhyme 😃😂😅😁😁😘
I know this whole thing by heart❤❤❤
My favorite thing about Vincent price was that no matter what he was doing, he always seemed like he was having a lot of fun.
He also never seemed to take himself too seriously.
I miss Vincent. Price so much. I hope he's having a great time in heaven
LilZebra of course he is, he’s hanging with Michael ;-)
I imagine him pulling pranks and scaring people even in heaven.
I didn't knew he passed... :(
Everton Souza: He passed away in 1993 at the age of 82.
@@jaderalves4693 or hanging with other horror legends
I love how Michael Jackson had Vincent Price do the Thriller Rap and his laugh I agree with Hollywood make up artist Rick Baker that his laugh was indeed raucous
It wasn't Michael Jackson. It was Rod Temperton that wrote it as suggested by Quincy Jones.
You can tell this man genuinely loved being a part of that song. Vincent Price is a rare type of legend like Stan Lee where he only became more legendary with age to the point that he's more well-known old than he is young. It basically means his work isn't gonna get any older any time soon.
One take on late night TV and he does it perfectly, even the laugh. What a pro.
I used to be so scared of this part in the song, but now really it’s just music to my ears
I used to hide in my closet when my older sister played this part of the song. 😂
Vincent Price was awesome ! He had a great sense of humor about himself,I bet he was a pretty fun guy.
And he was damn elegant
I got to see him on a lecture tour in the 80s, talking about his life and career. He was indeed very warm and funny. I was lucky enough to meet him afterwards. A true gentleman who took time to talk to his fans.
@@scottmoore1614 I think he also authored a cook book, and was known for his art collection.
The man himself. He is legendary my gawd
The flashing lights and thunder we're not scripted, that's just a thinf Vincent Price could do on command.
I love his voice... 😓
Vincent price had the most unique laugh
People throw around the expression "There will never be another like X", but, in Vincent's case, that is absolutely true!
In this case there’ll never be another person like Michael Jackson or Vincent Price
He was the King of Horror. No one could ever be as scary as him. And not many young people know who he is anymore. It's a real shame. His memory is dying.
Vincent Price could even do dry comedy. Saw him on the Jack Benny show. He was doing comedy with Jack.
And the fright is effortless. He could be singing happy birthday and small children would probably cry as their parents were captivated, to find out why that birthday was so damn happy 😂😂😂
Oh that REMARKABLE *LAUGH*
I wasn't creeped out up until this part TBH 1:07
The laugh really gets you. :-)
He and his wife were the kindest, most courteous, giving people you’d ever meet
That Man’s Voice Was A Pure Treasure!
Tomorrow he passed away he has 30th years rest in peace
❤️this guy
So glad Joan had him do it live. RIP Templeton, Price, Rivers and Jackson. Thank you.
Yes
last movie i've seen him on was Tim Burtons "Edward Siccorhands" RIP SIR
I think that was the last movie he did.
Who else said it with him because you're an Mj fan and you know this by heart😭
Course
I absolutely adore his voice ... He's the king still in those days
That evil laugh makes me shiver everytime
Even at 76 years old he could still pull this off EFFORTLESSLY! Legend! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
RIP and long live Vincent Price (May 27, 1911 - October 25, 1993), aged 82
You will always be remembered as a legend.
That laugh still scares me
Words cannot describe how freaking epic that was.
I remember when i was little, I saw Edward's scissor hands for the first time and I was so fascinated by Vincent Price, he was so elegant and unique. There's no one like him.
That voice is magic
Vincent Price The One and Only!☠❣
Putting him and MJ together for Thriller was pure genius!
He seems like a good laugh.
The laugh is AMAZING!!! Wish I could just pull out an evil laugh like that in the middle of Walmart lol
Lucky to be able to watch this anytime
Eternal actors of the voice: 1 Christopher Lee. 2 Basil Rathbone. 3 Jeremy Brett. 4 Vincent Price. 5 Jeremy Irons...
You ca totally see the glee on his face when he laughs, he was loving it!
This is epic the iconic voice of the Song Thriller.
CZcams audience, please give a standing ovation to Mr. Vincent Price
Only he could tell it.
Only he could print that style, voice and terror.
That LAUGH - perfect for Joker. Unfortunate video games were denied his artistic and vocal gifts
My first contact with Vincent Price was in Thriller, my second was "Edward Scissorhands", recently watched "House of Wax" and a few others of his movies for the first time, what a legend.
What a great thing you did.. I have most of his movies and I have enjoyed every one them.. Witchfinder is rough… Lol. There you see his true acting as evil. Amazing!
The Pit & the Pendulum ( Edgar Allen Poe) & The Bat & The Fly & House o Wax & House On Haunted Hill & The House of Usher are a Must
Que risada fantasmagórica!!
Eterno Vicent price!
Adoro essa risada
This is way too epic to put into words! Legendary!!
42 years old and I still enjoy the goosebumps! Thank you Uncle Vinnie
He was definitely one of a kind with his scary haunting voice, nobody can pull that off like Mr. Vincent Price.. you were a gem and still are!!💎
Love you!! just one of the actors in whole world that we should be happy to have seen, heard and met!.. If you were lucky enough!
To meet real true Hollywood like Mr. Vincent Price.you are lucky!!
He is missed by many.. You are there with Maryiln Monroe and James Dean and Hank Williams. .. I can go on... But there are alot of great people....like you. .. May you rest in peace.
Vincent Price is so freaking cool. Even as a kid he was always my favorite. What a classic!
LEGEND! I saw him when I was a kid in person in the 80s leaving Lawry’s Steak House in LA and he was TALL! Bigger than life even in the flesh!
Chills
Fkn' VINCENT PRICE, That Voice, That Stark Stare, That Laughter, JUST PRICELESS ☝️
I LOVE EVERY ONE OF VINCENT PRICE'S MOVIES, HIS VOICE IS SO ICONIC!!!!
Wax Museum 3D is Amazing.
hmm today is friday the 13 and it’s a full moon😳
2tootwo 2 pisces
How strange...so is today! 👻
AROOOOOOOOOOO
first time i saw this monologue on here, i got shivers towards the end where he looks straight at the camera
That Laugh! Since I first heard it, I've always imagined that laugh at the end of every movie twist.
The Retro quality of the video makes it SOOOO much better. This video wouldn’t be as good if it was modern HD
Absolute legend
The world lost such a talent when this man died ❤
I was like nah because he got older and didn’t have the same voice, but when he laughed, I was like well how do you not like it. 2020 anyone???
Sir FluffyLJ it was only 4 years after Thriller though. So he wasn’t too much older.
OMG I love this video *RIP Vincent Price (1911 - 1993)*
Holy Cow!! His laugh blows me away every time I hear it! It’s THE PERFECT SCARY LAUGH!! 👺👹👺👹🫣😂🎉
A legendary man with a legendary voice giving the ultimate villainous laugh. I need to peruse his repertoire again...
Such an incredible voice performer! And shout out to the writer for giving him such great lines!
O mestre do horror. Saudades, sempre. Descanse em paz, mestre.
Can’t fall asleep and for some reason I started singing Thriller. I had to recite the monologue. Then I needed to hear it and down the rabbit hole 🕳 I go... and how lucky am I stumbling onto this clip?!?! I love CZcams. Thanks for posting 🙌🏽
In heaven Vincent gone but not forgotten
I still remember his TileX commercial,lol..I'm telling my age..R.I.P to legends Joan Rivers,Vincent Price,and of course the Thriller ,The King of Pop,Micheal Joe Jackson
Vincent Price had a great voice and presence. I'd watch any movie he was in.
Happy 119th birthday, Vincent! I hope you're doing so well.
He would be 109 if he was still living. He was born in 1911.
God rest your soul, Vincent. You were a consummate entertainer. One of the greatest we will ever see.
Two of the most iconic voices in recorded history recorded in one song that song was thriller
One word...iconic!
I remember the night this came on. Wow!! The original pick was Alvira
It's the fuckin laugh at the end that does it for me
This brought a mile-wide grin to the face of this Gen X-er. Thank you.
ı am speechless!
Legendary , the good old days RIP Vincent Price and MJ also Eazy e 👊🏽
Now there's two talents that are greatly missed!
R.I.P Joan Rivers & Vincent Price.
Vincent Price will now and forever be the Master of Monsters!!!
He was soo cool
He was an icon and a renaissance man. He was incredible!
Love love love Vincent Price. ICON
This is one for the ages, even though he only took 20K as opposed to a portion of every album sale. This collaboration introduced him to a new generation. #PRICELESS
Oh, he was always around. He didn't need money; he just did "Thriller" for the fun of it.
I was wondering what he got for this. He really laid it down.
Love when he says y’all’s
I absolutely love him! His movies are classic .. and that thriller rap could never be duplicated.. R.I.P VINCENT
OMG I love Vincent Price's Voice!
I’m glad my mom introduced to me Vincent Price. One of my favorite horror icons.
I love this man like a grandfather!❤👏👏👏 he is the OG rapper of the Thriller song!
Goosebumps baby! On both arms and legs.
The laugh at the end with that stare into the camera made him look like evil incarnate (imagine the devil from Ghost Rider but older)
After all those years, I still get impressed by how innovative the music video ( short film ) Thriller really was.
Even his improvised evil laugh still rules, omfg, he is the best!!
I adore Vincent Price! :D There is no other like him!
Beautiful just Beautiful.
To see that was amazing! The guy is BOSS!
Legendary. Too bad he's gone.
Vincent Price has a voice that nobody can match. An amazing actor, and a narrator who will never be forgotten. His voice will live on forever for all generations to hear and stories to enjoy!
RIP Vincent Price. ❤❤
At a karaoke I mimicked his laugh…..my friend was seriously frightened because of this 😂
