We’ve all seen the
horror movies where people are trying to escape from zombie hordes and they get
in their car and it won’t start. Well, wouldn’t that make a fun ad for a car
battery? People would pile into their car, trying to escape from zombies, and
it wouldn’t start, the zombies would catch them, and they’d get eaten. Then the
announcer could say that this will always happen to you if you don’t use
Duralast (or whatever brand of) car batteries. (And it will serve you right,
too!) And the zombies, gorily masticating their victims, could say: “Please
don’t buy Duralast car batteries: you guys are delicious, and we don’t want you
to get away!”
Plus, maybe zombies
could make an ad for some crappy brand of car battery in the hopes that we’ll
all buy the lame batteries and we won’t be able to escape when the zombies are
trying to eat us.
(BTW: A couple of years
ago, Duralast made an ad where they claimed there’s nothing worse than a dead
car battery. Well, using this zombie attack scenario would perfectly illustrate
that point, wouldn’t it?)
