I was watching a documentary on the history of advertising, and they showed a clip from this commercial. So I decided to see if the whole thing was on YouTube, and yep, here it is.
The girl vamps are especially awesome. Nothing like some fine beauties with fangs and a mean, nasty set of claws to slash you open while you relish every moment of it. They can have me.
@MrJackal95 Are you talking about the Twilight series? I don't know about faggots, but if you are I totally agree with you about Twilight. A bunch of Ken dolls runnin' around like they're so dangerous. I can't stand those kids on the big screen today. A bunch of fuckin' Justin Biebers.
The cute vamp who forget his Ray-Bans (MiG Ayesa)is currently playing the rocker on his way down the ladder, Stacee Jaxx, in the awesome and hilariously funny Rock of Ages musical on tour.
its a very cooool commercial but its nonsense anyway even from unrealitisc perspective,... cause vampire can't stand the sun with or without any sunclasses,.. its their skin that burns not their eyes
No, you shut up, and study some literature of the true Vampire outline please .Archangeloftheandes is right. This new "generation" of vampires (Twilight style) has nothing to concern with the real Vampire Myth (Nosferatu, Dracula, Lady Carmilla, ecc).
p.s. About the spot, I'd say it's original and cool, however unreal at same time as like exactly archangel said.
@101Airborne um to go further, in folklore as well as Stoker's Novel of Dracula, they werent outright killed by the sun, but slightly weakened(but then dracula was pretty strong/old) it wasnt until Nosferatu the movie that the sun was fatal, then hollywood used it, Anne Rice took that as well, but only old/powerful vamps could put up with the sun(or atleast a young one with alot of strength and power) but it would hurt like hell, but then they could get a tan(I know farfetched, but awsome)
They "have to" bring back the Ray-Ban vampires (x Especially in these days.. Everbody in the same vampire madness..! (And Alexander Skarsgård will be an awesome new-blond-vampire in this commercial) :D
When did this first air? I must have been really little, but I remembered this from back then. I didn't like how that asshole let his buddy burst into dust.
@GroundhogBalls They're like dark lords of the Sith. They are supposed to be one in the same, but they are only out for themselves and would just as soon watch you die to gain power.
Coincidence? If they really are Ray-Bans, you have to remember that that's Twilight, and not at all like the Vampires of old days. Furthermore... if he does... it's most likely it's a reference to this... or something... But these vampires are nothing like Twilight... >.> Sorry to burst your bubble like this, but it's just how I feel about twilight.
For those who may not recognize him, the forgetful vampire that explodes is none other than MiG Ayesa, finalist on 2005's Rock Star: INXS. This is still one of the best Ray-Bans commercial of all time.
For those who may not know, the forgetful vampire that explodes is none other than Rock Star: INXS finalist MiG Ayesa in one of his first film appearances.

people still had a lot of 80's leftovers in '91. This commercial has the amazingness of Gen-X flavor all over it.
