This takes me back... to... holy fuck, this was made 9 years ago?!

[–] dessimbelackis@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Honestly thought it was longer ago, was expecting 10-12 yrs ago

Well, when people mention 90s stuff as retro or classic, I too feel old, very old in fact... I might as well just speak in Shakespearean riddles.

I personally always thought that Unedited Footage of a Bear was better.

[–] pezhore@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

I always loved the Broomshakalaka.

[–] Unaware7013@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

I love showing that to people and watching the reaction as they realize they have no idea what they're watching.

[–] deus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

For me it is This House Has People In It. There was a channel, I think it was Nexpo, that made a full hour video analysis on it and I'm still amazed by how much depth this has and how much effort went into it.

Saw this live on TV late in the night. Thought my television was broken then felt like I was going insane. At first I didn't realize it kept repeating, I wasn't fully paying attention, and then the video got so weird so fast. I forgot about it until the next morning and concluded it must have been a prank. Not too far off.

[–] Jim@ani.social 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Can you tell me what it is? Im scared to watch it.

[–] xSPYXEx@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a parody of an 70s-80s sitcom intro such as full house or Brady bunch. It goes on for longer than you think, continually playing the theme song as more characters are introduced and slowly the whole thing devolves into surrealism.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Surrealism and horror. Don't forget the horror.

[–] TheSambassador@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

While there are horror elements, it's largely just surreal. It's an incredible video and worth watching, don't be scared!

[–] Jim@ani.social 5 points 1 year ago

Fuck. I regret watching that.

[–] Freakyppl_applyhere@lemm.ee 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Damn you for getting this stuck in my head again

[–] AssPennies@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

When you almost forgot about the game, someone goes and mentions the game.

[–] evatronic@lemm.ee 17 points 1 year ago

You asshole.

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 year ago

Fuck I just lost

[–] SilentStorms@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

I haven't even watched it yet and it's already in my head.

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 17 points 1 year ago

I was tripping balls the first time I saw this video. The title alone freaked me out so much that I had to take a screenshot to prove that I wasn't just hallucinating.

[–] ewe@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Classic. I dusted this off recently at work when I realized we had a significant overly project managed thing going on. F off PMs, I'm doing my work!

[–] noxy@yiffit.net 10 points 1 year ago

It takes a lot to make a stew...

[–] slaacaa@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

How did I not see this before

[–] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I didn't know for years that this is an episode of a show called Infomercials which you can watch on Max. The first 5 or so episodes are spoofs of actual infomercials, but then it goes off the wall with episodes like this one. Highly recommended!

[–] SamHandwich@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Whoa, neat! Apparently they sometimes show up just as blank spots on the Adult Swim TV guide, which I remember seeing in the past but had no idea what it meant. They even have a Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infomercials_(TV_specials)

[–] carl_dungeon@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I saw this for the first time like 3 months ago. It’s so brilliant!

One of the worst earworms ever, but a classic nonetheless.

[–] Llcooljessie@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

The killer is on that show Welcome to Flatch. And I keep expecting him to, you know.

[–] flameguy21@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

God, I remember when my high school friends were obsessed with this lol

[–] lobut@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

I have no idea what happened but I loved it.

[–] Phantom_Engineer@lemmy.ml -4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

One of the all time greats, which is only funny the first time. Too many cooks, doo doo do doo...

[–] TheSambassador@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I've seen it like 10 times, and it's still great. You can see the killer guy earlier every time, and there are so many good little details.
