Now that’s creepy - new Orville Redenbacher ad

Posted by pnear
TV and Movies

I just came across a new ad for Orville Redenbacher while watching last week’s episode of Criminal Minds.  It is by far one of the creepiest ads I’ve seen in awhile, and might even put me off of popcorn for awhile.  They’ve resurrected Orville using CG, and not in a good way.  They tried to make it look as if he was there acting in one of his very own ads.  It’s not cartoony or happy, it’s like a photorealistic cryptkeeper in your kitchen or a reanimated corpse leaping out of a coffin after embalming.  Truly disturbing.

I agree, I thought the whole thing was in poor taste and just odd.
