The commercial about eating vegetables is from Thailand. The woman is a spirit in Thai folklore known as Krasue. There are similar versions of this spirit across Southeast Asia, like the Ahp in Cambodia, Penanggalan in Malaysia, Kuyang in Indonesia, Manananggal in the Philippines, and Ma lai in Vietnam. Krasue is a disembodied head that flies around with her internal organs and is constantly hungry and much like the Western vampire, she feeds off blood but will eat on poop or dead animals. This creature functions like a werewolf whereby the head detaches at night and goes on a rampage and before daybreak it needs to reattach itself to its body. The Osram commercial on the other hand is from Indonesia (the light bulb says Indonesia and the commercial says "Spesialis bohlam" meaning bulb specialist in Indonesian). The commercial is based on an Indonesian pun since OSRAM sounds like "Oh, seram" (Oh, scary) hence why they scream the name. As the end of the Osram commercial states, Osram is a German company. The name is derived from osmium and Wolfram (German for tungsten). Both elements were commonly used for lighting filaments at the time the company was founded.
Wahh! I knew it reminded me of something! I've heard of the manananggal before and that's what the girl looked liked! Also wow, lots of cool info on the lightbulb commercial!
I was hoping someone would mention what kind of creature she was I always kept forgetting the name. Didn't know about the 2nd fact. That's really interesting!
For those wanting a translated version of the Garfield commercial, here it is : "Garfield? Where's the furniture?" "Garfield? Where did the food go?" "Garfield? Where's Odie?" "Garfield?! GARFIEEEEEELD!!!" "Garfield is hungry, and you're the dessert! Saturday at 18:00 on Cartoon Network."
That woman who's head came off, organs still attached and eating veggies.... That's a Krasue. A popular Vampiric Creature in Thai Folklore. :) Nice to see it in a commercial at last. ^^
Someone else posted this name 'Krasue' for it, and I never heard it called a Krasue before. A very quick and cursory look online shows the same information for a Penanagglan as it does for a Krasue. Do you (or does anyone else) have any information if the names came from different areas, time periods, or are they perhaps two different myths that somehow feature a similar entity? I apologize for posting a similar comment in two places, but my curiosity has been sparked and I'm very curious about the Krasue version.
@@TwilightRogue15 "The penanggalan belongs to a constellation of similar mythological entities that can be found under different names across different regions of Southeast Asia; these regional variations all share in common that they are characterized by a disembodied head of a woman, with organs and innards hanging from its neck."

The jumpscare commercial is about the Latin American version of the Bogeyman known as "El Coco". El Coco tells the kid that since he's not going to eat his food, he's going to kidnap him, as the story of El Coco is that he punishes/steals kids who disobey their parents, or in this case, not finish their food. The joke the commerical made is that since the mother's cooking is so bad, El Coco takes her away for misbehaving because she gave her son a terrible dinner. And according to the commerical, if you buy the book they showed at the end, your cooking won't suck and El Coco won't take you away! Lol XD Edit: I have received some replies that give a different name to the creature, like Cucuy or Cuca, and while the name may vary from place to place it’s still the same concept/myth. It’s found in all Spanish and Portuguese speaking countries.
@@TwilightRogue15 Thank you! I thought a lot of people watching were going to be confused about it, especially if they don't know Spanish, so I wanted to share my explanation.
To translate the Garfield one: Jon: Garfield, where’s the furniture? Garfield, where’s the food? Garfield, where’s Odie? Garfield? GARFIELD! Narrator: Garfield is hungry, and you’re dessert. Saturday from 6-8 on Cartoon Network.
The commercial at 16:11 is about the Coco, a spanish monster that takes kids who don't eat their food. The kid feeds his mom's terrible cooking to the Coco and the Coco takes his mom instead. Hilarious commercial with context
In the garfield commercial i believe jon says "Garfield, what happened to my living room?" "Garfield, What happened to my kitchen?" "Garfield, Where is Odie?" "Garfield? GARRFIEEELD!" and the text at the end translates to "Garfield and his friends" Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong because its been roughly 2 years since i learned spanish.
Jon says "Garfield? What happened to the furniture?" "Garfield? What happened to the food? " "Garfield? What happened to Odie? " "Garfield!? " Then the announcer says "Garfield is hungry, and you are the dessert, Saturday at 18:00 only on Cartoon Network"
To explain what was going on in that commercial where the woman's head came off her body while she was proving she doesn't eat vegetables; she was a penanggalan or penanggal, which is a nocturnal vampiric entity from Malay ghost myths. It takes the form of a floating disembodied woman's head, with its organs and entrails trailing from its neck. From afar, the penanggalan is said to twinkle like a ball of flame, similar to the will-o'-the-wisp phenomenon. So, actually, this fit the Halloween video, perfectly, because she was basically a Mystics in Bali styled vampire. Love the chanel, Chad.
Thank you! I was familiar with the entity, but couldn't remember what it was called. I was going to try looking it up, but it probably would have taken me forever to find as I thought it was some kind of obake since the commercial is Japanese
5:55 Not an episode. Cartoon Netwoork used to make 'shorts' for their commercials. In this case, John is asking "Garfield... where is the furniture? Where is the food? Where is Odie?!". Then the narrator says: "Garfield is hungry... and you're the dessert." And yes, implies that Garfield ate John at the end.
I had a dream the other night that chadtronic was reviewing a supposedly cursed doll, and it somehow devolved into him showing up at my church and us having to fight off these humanoid meat bug things that were tearing people open because they drank Gatorade.
Apparently the slashtag one has to do with some fundraiser for the National Advertising Benevolent Society. It definitely was geared towards other social media and marketing people (clearly they had fun with it). Also, damn I forgot about Friendster
Found the portfolio of copywriter who did that campaign, the accompanying "Grindhouse inspired" posters are actually pretty great and each centered on a different social media company
I'm not sure, but the light bulb commercial is probably selling daylight bulbs, essentially light bulbs that give off the same light as daylight, hut that's just a guess. It would explain why the vampire was terrified.
Seeing the first commercial in the very beginning made me think of Chad yelling: 10 OUR OF 10 Also the video game underground thing was so wholesome! Happy Halloween to Chad, Wraps, Mike, and Video Game Underground.
4:58 "Garfield, Where's the furniture?" "Garfield, Where's the food?" "Garfield, Where's Odie?" "Garfield is hungry, and you are the dessert! Saturdays at 18:00 on Cartoon Network"
Thank you for showing that Garfield commercial to the world. Cartoon Network ran that one all the time when I was a kid and it terrified me to pieces, I had nightmares about it, especially because it started airing right around the same time that William Hanna died so you'd have this super sad bumper of cartoons mourning his loss immediately followed by creepy Garfield pretty often. Really scary! That said, I also think it's one of the best things the local Latin American animation team produced, it's so expressive, just a shame they terrified kids in the process.

that's very cool that Video Game Underground is still alive and kicking. i saw the ad on tv when i was a kid and it stuck with me, then Cursed Commercials awakened that memory that i kept in the back of my noggin.
That first commercial at the beginning of this episode is actually based on a penanggalan, a famous southeast Asian cryptid that drags its organs around. It’s weak to barbed wire because it tears up its organs causing mass bleeding. It also loves vinegar. Like, a lot.
That was the name, thank you. I was wondering about that. I know I've seen one of these before in a cryptid or monster video floating around on here. I think I recall that this was either from Indonesia or Singapore. I forget it has been a while. But I definitely recall its home is somewhere in the South East Asian area.
As a native Toledoan, during the Video Game Underground I was like wow there must be a place that has similar road names to Toledo, then my mind was blown when he said the location was in Toledo. I want to say the jingle sounded familiar but I can’t be certain I’ve watched the commercial (I do believe I’ve seen the exact shop mentioned though)
That social media slasher one was definitely a commercial for a student film, probably from and for a local college. Definitely not someone's cringey method of trying to scare kids away from social media. Usually those kinds of commercials are way less intentionally schlocky
Ok I tried translating Spanish ads in this episode, if I made any mistakes people can let me know! Garfield ad at 5:00: "Garfield? Where is all the furniture? 5:01 "Garfield? Where is all the food?" 5:08 "Garfield? Where is Odie!? Garfield!? Garfield?!?" 5:15 "Garfield is hungry, and you are the dessert! Saturday at 18 from Cartoon Network " 5:20 And for the ad at 15:57: Boy: "And who are you?" Monster: "The Monster" Boy: "And what are you doing here?" Monster: "Your mom didn't tell you? The kids who don't eat get taken away by THE MONSTER!" Boy: "Yeah but I don't like this food" Monster: "Let me see" Text: Learn how to make tasty the nutritious Book title: delicious for growing Text: The Trade Tuesday and Thursday (according the Google, El Comercio is a newspaper in Peru)
Back in the 90s I remember a few times that the local station would run the old 3D movie, so the station would team up with a local business(normally a restaurant) to distribute the glasses needed to watch the movie.
For those who don't speak Spanish in that Garfeild Halloween commercial Jon first asked to Garfeild. "Garfeild what happened to the furniture?." then Jon asked "Garfeild, where is the food?". lastly Jon asked "Garfeild what happened to Odie? the narrator at the end says " Garfeild is hungry and your are the the desert. you can watch him Saturdays at 6 pm only on cartoon network." man i feel old now just remembering those Saturday night cartoons hope my translations helped
What I'm wondering is how come she's got all those lights on but it's still dark in the house? It's like, sure, it'll keep the vampires away, but it won't lighten the room.
7:00 looks like a reference to a "Krasue", a spooky spirit from Thai folklore; they're a floating woman's head with her guts hanging below it. She looks like a more cutesy version tho.
The way that that unicorn looked like it went into that clown's foot it looks like it went all the way into the clown's foot which in real life would mean that it would be sticking out the other side of the person's foot which would be worse than any LEGO possible.
Here I thought video game underground went out of business, glad to see they're still around. EDIT: that OSRAM ad obviously isn't aware of the rule that vampires have to invited into a dwelling, they can't trespass.
7:24 I saw somebody mention this already, it looks like this is called a Penanggalan. Not sure if a creature from Indonesia, Malaysia or Thailand. Somewhere in that area. But this was kind of a cute scary PSA on eating veggies. 🤣 that was kind of funny and a lot less gory than how I've seen them before in those cryptid videos
When I was 5 this guy at a Halloween party had this sich gargoyle costume on his chest, and my parents said that's what happens if I didn't eat vegetables. I believed them. I was REALLY scared of having a gargoyle on my chest and ALWAYS ate my peas.
Your 2019 Halloween Special with Ghost face is one of my favorite pieces of Halloween Media, shame you haven’t done something like that since but I still look forward to your Halloween videos every year.
LMAO, the OSRAM commercial... straight at my childhood. the commercials are based on the one pun from the word "Seram" which means scary in Indonesian. So they kept having the vampire scream O-Seram.
okay ngl the commercial at 15:57 (jumpscare warning at 16:01) it's kind of funny if you know spanish. so the monster is el coco aka the bogeyman and he's here to take the kid for not eating his food , kid tells him he doesn't like it, el coco tries it and also doesn't like it and then proceeds to take the mom for not being good at cooking. that's the joke, it seems to be advertising some sort of cooking book
I actually remember that Ray Ban commercial! As soon as they showed the vampire fangs, it's like it reawakened a long sleeping memory in the back of my brain.

Honestly, it's kinda surprising Chad didn't point out that one of the aliens from the Mission to Mars ad sounds like Wraps.
He does sound a lot like Wraps.

For those who don't speak Spanish in that Garfeild Halloween commercial Jon first asked to Garfeild. "Garfeild what happened to the furniture?." then Jon asked "Garfeild, where is the food?". lastly Jon asked "Garfeild what happened to Odie? the narrator at the end says " Garfeild is hungry and your are the the desert. you can watch him Saturdays at 6 pm only on cartoon network."
man i feel old now just remembering those Saturday night cartoons hope my translations helped
What I'm wondering is how come she's got all those lights on but it's still dark in the house? It's like, sure, it'll keep the vampires away, but it won't lighten the room.
7:00 looks like a reference to a "Krasue", a spooky spirit from Thai folklore; they're a floating woman's head with her guts hanging below it. She looks like a more cutesy version tho.
I totally forgot about video game underground, that riff is going to be stuck in my head again lol
The way that that unicorn looked like it went into that clown's foot it looks like it went all the way into the clown's foot which in real life would mean that it would be sticking out the other side of the person's foot which would be worse than any LEGO possible.
8:22 this is a commercial involving a CBS Halloween Special called The Last Halloween, it's a pretty goofy special for the little tykes.
Here I thought video game underground went out of business, glad to see they're still around. EDIT: that OSRAM ad obviously isn't aware of the rule that vampires have to invited into a dwelling, they can't trespass.
Why does John's house look super trashed in that Garfield commercial? That's what makes it so curse to me.
Have fun sleeping after that Garfield one
Also YESSS VIDEO GAME UNDERGROUND RETURNS!
I’m happy to see that Video Game Underground is back!!
7:24
I saw somebody mention this already, it looks like this is called a Penanggalan.
Not sure if a creature from Indonesia, Malaysia or Thailand. Somewhere in that area.
But this was kind of a cute scary PSA on eating veggies. 🤣
that was kind of funny and a lot less gory than how I've seen them before in those cryptid videos
The guy from the video game underground ad seemed like such a fun dude for some reason lol love the vibes
No way, they actually got Video Game Underground for this. XD
When I was 5 this guy at a Halloween party had this sich gargoyle costume on his chest, and my parents said that's what happens if I didn't eat vegetables. I believed them. I was REALLY scared of having a gargoyle on my chest and ALWAYS ate my peas.
I’m glad I have now seen 2 videos spotlighting the critters movies, that is cool
I love the worm alien that for some reason sounds exactly like Wraps
HOLY CRAP I HAVENT SEEN THE CLOWN COMMERICIAL IN YEARS
my mom talks about it all the time but we never remembered what it was for!
Your 2019 Halloween Special with Ghost face is one of my favorite pieces of Halloween Media, shame you haven’t done something like that since but I still look forward to your Halloween videos every year.
Video game underground’s return was so amazing and emotional! I’m so happy they are back for our special scary holiday filed with pumpkin year video 😊
But why does the thumbnail keep changing? Truly a cursed video
I've been on a Chadtronic binge for like 3 days straight, this is perfect
12:11 PCLaptops is a chain in Utah mostly the SLC area. I used them when I lived there.
I didn't know the Video Game Underground guy had a Cameo account. In all seriousness, it's cool to see that song still going strong!
Chadtronic never fails to keep my head and feelings up,keep it up Chad
4:58 I love that Chad gave this commercial an 8 (ate)
Episode 47#?! damn!
*Videogame underground!* should have been the title
😂
LMAO, the OSRAM commercial... straight at my childhood.
the commercials are based on the one pun from the word "Seram" which means scary in Indonesian.
So they kept having the vampire scream O-Seram.
This is like the first time none of the ads got a 10 out of 10 rating, which is pretty crazy!
Cursed commercials #3 has left the chat
okay ngl the commercial at 15:57 (jumpscare warning at 16:01) it's kind of funny if you know spanish. so the monster is el coco aka the bogeyman and he's here to take the kid for not eating his food , kid tells him he doesn't like it, el coco tries it and also doesn't like it and then proceeds to take the mom for not being good at cooking. that's the joke, it seems to be advertising some sort of cooking book
I have the pirate head from the Walgreens commercial! It still works too, I put it out every year!
1:12 I saw it for the first time in one of bijuu mikes vids form like 4/5 years ago
0:26 Nice Nightmare Freddy head!
Garfield's villain arc.
"Only on Cartoon Network!"
I actually remember that Ray Ban commercial! As soon as they showed the vampire fangs, it's like it reawakened a long sleeping memory in the back of my brain.
I love me some cursed commercials with my favorite ageless human man.
