Calgarians are going for another thrilling record this year!

Elaborately dressed zombies will be syncing up with cities around the globe to set a world record, by doing the Michael Jackson Thriller dance at exactly the same time to the second.

Thrill the World is free to participate in, or you can just watch.

It happens at SouthCentre Mall this year: practice is at 1:30 p.m. Saturday, and the world record attempt is at 4 p.m.

Participants and spectators are also invited to make a non-perishable food donation to the Calgary Interfaith Food Bank.
