Groovin’ ghouls bust out the moves at downtown’s zombie disco. Aaaaaaowwww!

As part of the free outdoor screenings at this year's Tribeca Film Festival, a freaked-out bunch of zombies, ghouls and, well, Michael Jackson fans flocked to the World Financial Center Plaza to celebrate the 25th anniversary of his groundbreaking "Thriller" video.

M.J. look-alikes were on hand to lend cred to the event, which included a Michael Jackson dance-off, a showstopping number from the contestants on Bravo TV’s “Step It Up And Dance,” and a screening of the “Thriller” video introduced by its director, John Landis. It was a scream. — Jacqui Gal
