New Burger King commercial
I recently saw the new BK "skyscraper" commercial.
Holy mother of fuck, this one's a keeper.
Here's the synopsis (borrowed from some dumb website):
You have this construction worker, way, way up working on a skyscraper. He sees someone working on the other side of a steel beam, but he can't tell who it is.
Suddenly, the "burgary" face of death comes slowly peering around the side of the beam. Here's the worker, trapped and vulnerable, while some weirdo with a bizarre mask is leering at him. It's like the climax of a horror film.
Then, the Burger King guy hands the construction worker a glass of coffee, which he quickly drinks down. Of course, it could have been full of sulphuric acid for all he knew, but why not trust the masked stranger who has you cornered 500 ft. off the ground?
Now here's the real kicker: the two of them are standing there, way up in the air, and the Burger King guy gives the worker a little push. The worker staggers a little bit, almost falls, and barely regains his balance. Then he looks at the Burger King guy and laughs uproariously as if to say: "You almost murdered me, you sly devil!"
You know what would be really hilarious? A horror flick featuring the "King" murdering people for refusing to take his free sandwiches. Now that would be entertainment.
OK, so when I saw this commercial, and the King slowly peered out from behind that girder, I swear to Cheese 'n' Rice I almost lost my shit.
I sorta experienced a weird combination of slap-nuts laughter and sheer terror.
Has anyone else seen this latest installment of the continuing adventures of the King?
I tried to find a video of it, but my own internet suckery abounds.
If someone can find it, please post it here.
I NEED to see this commercial again.
