Rob Zombie, who directed the rebooted Halloween and Halloween II movies in recent years, brings more of a Texas Chainsaw Massacre vibe to this new Woolite commercial from Euro RSCG, advising you not to torture you clothes with other detergents. Mr. Zombie, as he is referred to, of course, in the New York Times story, says the spot isn't scary at all—it's "more like a Tim Burton" film than something truly horrifying. The main character, he says, "is like Uncle Fester" from The Addams Family, and not "like some child killer out in the woods."
