Caught in the 'Act'

No doubt you have seen by now the viral videos of the unique rehabilitation program instituted at Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center in the Philippines.

The orange-clad prisoners have displayed remarkable, marching band-like precision to the tunes of such artists as Michael Jackson, Queen and ... Whoopi Goldberg?

Click here for their latest production number inspired by Sister Mary Clarence and the Sister Act choir.

UPDATE: The Advocate has an article on the making of the videos, including interviews with the inmates who play 'Michael Jackson' and his girlfriend in the "Thriller" dance.
