Commercials that give you the creeps

Posted: 3/1/04 at 12:00pm

What is the general concensus on the Quiznos Subs commercial? it makes my skin crawl. (and certainly doesn't make me want to try their food!)..just what ARE those things singing that jingle (for lack of a better word)? WEIRD.
"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

I cannot deny that it makes me laugh - but at the same time - I shudder...

see, now if only the little hans brinker had been heidi brinker, she would have had a tampon and could have stuck that in the dyke as opposed to her finger.

Missed that tampon ad, but I love the Quiznos ads, that they even agreed to have creatures that looked like the spawn of Snuggles and a Foster Farms chicken breast promoting their food is progressive as hell. Love it!
Quizno's is a PUNK deli, man. It's total punk rock.

I don't know why this one creeps me out, but it does:

The storage bin ad, wherein the woman wants her guy to toss all his stuff. Cut to: her igniting a tower of his belongings with a stream of fire that traverses a whole street. The music is jarringly dark, and the image has an eerily violent feel to it. Sort of like Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451.

I agree Auggie, what is up with all the violent women ads? Like the one where the wife goes ape**** with a baseball bat on her husbands study because he is "sneaking carbs".

And ENOUGH WITH ANTHROPOMORPHIC ANIMALS!!! The Crouching Tiger, Hidden Lassie thing is creepy.

Dear God in heaven, I HATE the quizno's commercial. Those little rodents are soooo nasty looking... it definitely doesn't reflect well on the establishment/food. lol

I too, am a little disturbed by the tampon plugging boat commercial.

Annnnnnnnnd I'm HIGHLY amused/disturbed by the commercial for Cealis (the newest "viagra"). There's a vocal disclaimer in the add talking about the side effects and one of the things they warn against is: "If your erection should last more than 4 hours, seek immediate medical attention." ROTFLMAO
