....at the creepy and disgusting "Unrated MIRRORS" banners with the creepy freakish human/thing cutting it's own neck and all the blood? Seriously. I guarentee that this appeals to only a very small percentage of members. GAWD! GROSS!! How long will this torture me?

And what you find appealing about it I will never know, but I am not one to judge.

It's still GROSS!

Absolutely agree. I already posted about this T&C violating ad in the Worst Ads thread. It's an awful ad, really disgusting.

And a star for you for doing so. I posted there the last time they ran this ad. And I have absolutely nothing against the advertising on this site with this one exception.

Bad taste Amigos.

I think this add probably breaks some of the restrictions that we as members are held to on avatars and posts.
I wonder at what point gore and vulgarity became acceptable for adveritsing movies but smoking cigarettes is a PG offense.

That is an absolutely well said and valid point. I am looking forward to seeing the movie, but there is a difference between getting peoples attention and blatant shock value.

The original add early last year had a link for thise who chose to watch the trailer.

We need to remember that there are younger members that may get freaked out by this kind of thing.
