Hmmm.... the most Disturbing add youve seen.

What is the freakiest add you've seen? Was it the add where the guy unzips this suit that looks like hally berry and turns into Barry Boswick, just for diet pepsi twist? Or was it that really annoying add where we hear about the horrors of not shopping at Sears Days? Or where they rescedule stuff like that doctors appointment just to get to Khols? take your pick, step up, and someday we may find...

THE FREAKIEST AND MOST DISTURBING ADVERTISEMENT EVER!!!

I think it's that Drano Max commercial that's in black and white. The one where a lady is in ther bathroom and looks into her sink and her neck bends 90 degrees and her eyes get all wide and deformed and she's saying, "Billy? Billy??" (calling to her husband)

Has anyone seen that? That's some scary shiznat, man...

Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*I think the most disturbing yet funny ad was for Pepsi. It went like this:

Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*The Pepsi girl walks into a cafe (the one with the curly black hair,) sits down and asks for the usual. The man behind the bar says, "Here you are honey," and hands her a Pepsi. The girl then looks at the man and says, "I see dead people!" (while her cold breath is visible.) At that moment, a dead lady with a bike helmet appears next to the man standing behind the counter, holding up a pepsi can and smiling. More dead people appear with Pepsis and start to make her dance on the counter. Meanwhile, the guy behind the counter who can't see the dead people is yelling, "What are you doing!" It then shows Aretha Franklin sitting in a booth with a knife in her head saying, "You go girl!" The video then fades to a "The Fun of Soda" logo.


Note: The preceding was actually a Mad TV parody, not an actual commercial.

Most disturbing ad:
Either the VW Lupo ad or the Levis one with the hamster.
If you want an explanation just ask, I only saw the Lupo ad one so I'll get everything mixed up and I can't remember the name of the hamster. Maybe you could ask someone else to explain them...

*Imagines girl friend boy ads being at every commercial break and shudders* Just my imagination, don't worry...

Well, a disturbing ad.. hmm... car ones. They're evil, I say! They are always so cheesy, crappy and gimmicky. Always with their evil car mascots... yeeech! Good thing books and graphic novels don't have commercials...

When they start putting ads in books, like they do in magazines, then we've got a problem on our hands.

Ooh I know! Actually this ad is cool, but anyway. These two people are feeding the whales at seaworld or something. This guy holds a fish over the edge and a whale jumps up and grabs it, while taking his hand off at the same time. He and his mate go in for a drink at a bar. The bartender slides the drink over and the guy without the hand couldn't get it, and it falls off the table.

the ads from that company are actually quite disturbing most of them have to do with people who would rather drink alchahol than seek medical attention

*hates all ads* what was really annoying is when they started showing ads in movie threaters just before the movie starts (along with the previews...UGH!)
