Thriller: MJ’s Jacket

Worn By: Michael Jackson
Year: 1982
Value: $1.8 million*

It could be argued that Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” music video isn’t strictly a movie, but it was created to be viewed like one. Director John Landis had a very specific vision and his hard work paid off. It’s largely regarded as one of the best music videos of all time.

Not only was the dance great, but the costumes were perfect. MJ’s red and black jacket was sold at an auction in Los Angeles for close to $2 million back in 2011. That could have been spurred on by the fact that Jackson himself passed away in 2009.
