The artist behind the project, Gamma Acosta, contributed a handful of variations on themes ranging from police violence to religion to Lord of the Rings. The one that's earned the most attention so far is Thrill the Jewels, featuring the duo as the werewolf and zombie from Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video.
