Default Any One Seen The Scary Advert.....?

I think it is for Mattessons (sp?).

Just about to put my 4 year old to bed (around 7.15pm), when the advert came on and caught his eye (just as I'd picked him up).

Some guy standing by the bus-stop eating chicken nuggets out of a bag and the people around him start sneaking up to steal them. When he looks away their faces change to vampire types with the long mouth and sharp teeth!!

When he loks back they act like they are not interested. Then a bus goes past with them all pressed against the windown like somthing out of Angel!!

My son was terrified. Am I over-reacting here or has anyone else seen it. Ok for later on but it even gives me the creeps?

My mrs said the same...

I let my little one watch Dr Who, (pertwee years) its what you bring into it that affects them... if you make light of it they probably wont know any different, but if you convice them its sheer fear, then they,ll never make it past the deli counter in tesco's

yeah, put it in perspective for them.Tell them not to worry as it's just made up stuff on the telly & not real life.They should really be scared of mad axe-murderes breaking into the house.

If I had kids I would be a bit more concerned at some of the people and things happenning in this world than an advert. Jeez I used to watch Hammer horror movies when I was a kid and would go to bed just about crapping myself.

BTW - loved the bit in The Commitments when Decko started playing the drums and the baby looked like it filled its nappy big time

I agree. I used to watch 'em. Difference is, you knew it was a scary thing by the title so you made the choice. Adverts, no thanks.

I'm sure he has loads of time to worry about whats going on with people and the world - bit young at 4 though!!
