Hitler was his thriller.
Michael Jackson had an unquenchable thirst for Nazi documentaries as well as Judy Garland TV specials and dramas depicting troubled boys in dysfunctional families.
He displayed the tapes along the walls of his video vault at the Neverland ranch, according to the King of Pop’s former movie peddler.
“Michael Jackson was a very special client to me,” said Norman Scherer, owner of a videotape distribution company in the 1990s.
In 1995, Scherer was approached by a New Yorker looking to place big orders for a “famous” client — as long as he could be discreet.
“He had a really good collection,” said Scott Schaffer, Jackson’s former personal assistant, who hunted down Scherer to buy obscure titles. “I knew what [Jackson] wanted.”
As for the Hitler flicks — which included such gems as “Nazis — Of Pure Blood,” “Oasis of the Zombies” and “Hitler’s Children” — Scherer assumed that the singer just loved the military garb and lockstep marching.
