John Landis, the filmmaker whose credits include Animal House, The Blues Brothers and Trading Places, is suing over another of his best known hits�Jackson's "Thriller" video. Landis says Jackson owes him big bucks in royalties for the classic 14-minute clip.
Per the complaint, filed in L.A. Superior Court last week and obtained by E! News, the 58-year-old filmmaker accuses the 50-year-old Moonwalker of "fraudulent, malicious and oppressive conduct" for failing to fork over a check. [So he waits 25 years to sue?] - more on this story
