(cont.) There’s another ad in the series that's not featured here, which as far as I know only appeared on the rental VHS of On Deadly Ground. It starts off with Hartman with his legs tied to the ceiling and is followed by a weird montage of various pieces of found footage accompanied by Hindi music including footage of dogwalkers, a scene from a movie with a man wielding a bat while sticking out his tongue, and someone wearing a plastic mask writhing briefly in front of a camera.
The faux news announcer in all of these ads is noneother than the late Phil Hartman, better known as the voice of Troy McClure in The Simpsons! Also, the song in the second ad is Ace of Spades by Motörhead, while the video footage in the background comes from the music video for Stakker - Humanoid. All of the ads in this campaign were produced by Howell Henry Chaldecott Lury, infamous for their Tango ads.

@PIFMan092 Last times I saw Phil Hartman in an ad were the M&M's ads. He played the blue M&M and Chocolate Bar!
