This Demented Parody of ’90s Ads Goes From Goofy to Horrifying in Seconds

"Every '90s Commercial Ever," made by digital movie studio RocketJump, is an amazing parody that filters these campy ads through an insanely accurate lens, replicating everything from the absurd acting to the ridiculous shilling of tooth-rotting, gut-busting snacks. Oh, and it also gets super weird. 

Take a look at this commercial promoting some Capri-Sun-like and Bagel-Bite-esque foods, in the oddest thing since "Too Many Cooks."

Warning: Video is violent and may be upsetting, particularly if you've ever been attacked by a many-headed mutant.

Dez Dolly, a writer, director, producer and co-founder of RocketJump, is the brains behind the parody and explains his inspiration in the behind-the-scenes video below:

"We were talking about commercials from the '90s—they're so incredible—which you can now find on YouTube, and they're absolutely incredible, they're so bizarre. And there were these Capri Sun ads that we were talking about, where these kids drink the juice and then turn into liquid metal and splash around and skateboard and shoot hoops. They make absolutely no sense whatsoever, and we thought it would be really fun to start there, and then have the spot take this really dark turn."

The BTS also gives some insight into how the spot-on '90s-style glitchy visual quality was achieved and how VGP Effects made such terrifying creatures. Oh, and check out the (slightly more horrific) "uncensored version" here.
